Police officers in Japan have more proportion of overweight than general population; therefore we presumed that police officers might be more prevalent in sleep-disordered breathing (SDB). The objectives of this study are 1) to clarifythe prevalence of SDB; 2) to examine the associations of SDB with obesity; 3) to examine the associations of SDB with subjective sleepiness and objective alertness among Japanese police officers. We found that the prevalence of SDB and overweight among police officers were approximately 20% and more than 50%, respectively. We also observed the positive associations of age and BMI with 3% oxygen desaturation index. We found that the severity of SDB was positively associated with both subjective sleepiness and objective alertness indicators, but there were no differences of prediction ability for SDB between relationship of SDB with objective alertness and that with subjective sleepiness.

日本的警察比普通人群的超重比例更高。因此，我们认为警察在睡眠呼吸呼吸（SDB）中可能更为普遍。这项研究的目标是1）阐明SDB的患病率； 2）检查SDB与肥胖的关联； 3）检查日本警察的主观嗜睡和客观警觉性的SDB协会。我们发现，警察的SDB和超重的患病率分别为20％和50％以上。我们还观察到年龄和BMI与3％氧降亚指数的正相关。我们发现，SDB的严重性与主观嗜睡和客观警觉性指标呈正相关，但是SDB与客观警觉性和主观嗜睡之间的SDB的预测能力没有差异。
