    One confounding variable is that sleep lab studies show there really are morning people and night people. Interesting point. That classification may not hold true when you look at parameters such as platelet aggregability, vasomotor tone, fibrinogen levels, etc., all of which are increased (at least in the general population) in the morning hours.
