Adults with T2DM were included in the study. Simple and multiple (adjusted for sociodemographic and lifestyle factors and health conditions) linear regression analyses were performed to identify the associations.Results: In terms of VFA, SFA, bodyweight, BMI and WC, the eligibility criteria were satisfied by 2771, 2771, 2863, 2863 and 2862 patients, respectively. In the unadjusted model, the shorter nocturnal sleep duration was associated with higher VFA, SFA, bodyweight, BMI and WC. In other words, an hour increase in the nocturnal sleep duration was associated with a decrease of 2.07 cm2 in VFA (regression coefficient = − 2.07; 95% CI = − 3.25 to − 0.88), 2.67 cm2 in SFA (− 2.67; − 4.55 to − 0.78); 0.82 kg in bodyweight (− 0.82; − 1.2 to − 0.43), 0.2 kg/m2 in BMI (− 0.2; − 0.31 to − 0.09) and 0.46 cm in WC (− 0.46; − 0.76 to − 0.16). In the adjusted models, the shorter nocturnal sleep duration was still found to be associated with higher VFA, SFA, bodyweight, BMI and WC (except SFA and WC in models where we further adjusted for health conditions).Conclusion: The nocturnal sleep duration among people with T2DM in Ningbo, China is negatively associated with visceral and general obesity indicators (VFA, bodyweight and BMI). Thus, there is a need for appropriate interventions to address the issue of sleep deprivation.Keywords: type 2 diabetes mellitus, nocturnal sleep, obesity, China
