Yo-Yo Sleep and Cardiometabolic Health Study
This study is looking at how different sleep patterns affect your heart health and metabolism (how your body uses energy). Researchers want to see if having short sleep during the week, followed by longer "recovery" sleep on weekends (called Intermittent Short Sleep or ISS), impacts your health differently than getting enough sleep every night (Sustained Adequate Sleep or SAS). They are also exploring if keeping a consistent sleep schedule, even with short sleep, leads to better outcomes than shifting your sleep times (Social Jetlag or SJL). You might be able to join if you are between 18 and 49 years old, have a BMI between 20-29.9 kg/m2, and usually sleep 7-9 hours a night without aids or naps. The study will measure your fasting blood sugar, insulin levels, and blood pressure to see the effects. The current status of this study is unclear.
- Study design
- This is an interventional study planning to enroll 72 participants. It will compare three different sleep patterns over 4 weeks.
- What's involved
- You would participate in a 4-week outpatient intervention. Your fasting plasma glucose, insulin level, and blood pressure will be measured at the end of this period.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Your health markers will be measured up to 4 weeks after the start of the study.

What this trial measures
- Fasting Plasma GlucoseUp to 4 weeks
Insulin resistance will be assessed by measuring fasting plasma glucose levels.
- Insulin LevelUp to 4 weeks
Insulin resistance will be assessed by measuring insulin levels.
- Morning Systolic and Diastolic Blood PressureUp to 4 weeks
Ambulatory blood pressure will be measured.
- Evening Systolic and Diastolic Blood PressureUp to 4 weeks
Ambulatory blood pressure will be measured.
- Fat massUp to 4 weeks
Body composition will be measured using Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) to determine fat mass.
