Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate possible associations between obesity related anthropometric determinants and blood pressure measurements according to the self-recorded number of daily hours of sleep within the adult Czech population. Our findings suggest that short sleep duration appears independently associated with central fat distribution and high blood pressure particularly in younger age groups.
