Model 1 includes adjustment for age, sex, race, body mass index and field center.

Model 2 includes variables in Model 1 and additional adjustment for diabetes, education level, alcohol consumption, smoking status, physical activity, estimated glomerular filtration ratio <60 mL/min per 1.73 m2, albumin to creatinine ratio ≥ 30 mg/g, antihypertensive medication use, CES-Depression score ≥16, and high likelihood of obstructive sleep apnea.

Model 3 includes variables in Model 2 and additional adjustment for mean clinic SBP or DBP for the outcomes of sleep SBP or DBP respectively.

Model 4 includes variables in Model 3 and additional adjustment for mean awake SBP or DBP for the outcomes of sleep SBP or DBP respectively.

Model 5 includes variables in Model 4 and additional adjustment for self-reported sleep quality during ABPM.

*

The tests for interaction are between race and sleep duration categories on mean sleep SBP and, separately, on mean sleep DBP.
