Abstract:
Background Sleep disturbances can lead to many health problems in school-aged children, including hypertension and obesity. However, a lack of consensus about the etiology of these conditions is due to conflicting reports on the possible effects of sleep disturbances. Objective To assess for possible associations between sleep disturbances and blood pressure as well as body mass index in school-aged children. Methods This cross-sectional study involved primary school children in the 4th-5th grades. Subjects’ blood pressure, body weight, and body height were measured and their parents completed the Sleep Disturbances Scale for Children (SDSC) questionnaire. Results Of the 816 children enrolled, 503 (61.6%) children had sleep disturbances. The most common type of sleep disturbance was initiating and maintaining sleep. Bivariate analysis revealed a significantly increased risk of hypertension among subjects with sleep disturbances (PR 15.06; 95%CI 8.13 to 27.90) and increased risk of obesity (PR 22.65; 95%CI 12.28 to 41.78). Conclusion The most common type of sleep disturbance is initiating and maintaining sleep. Sleep disturbances are significantly associated with hypertension and obesity in children.

Abstract:
Background/Objective. Sleep apnea is associated with elevated inflammatory markers. A subgroup of patients never report sleep disturbances to their physician. The inflammatory status of this subgroup is not known. The present study aims to evaluate two inflammatory markers, C-reactive protein (CRP) and red cell distribution width (RDW), in those with unreported sleep disturbances and compares these findings to those with and without reported sleep disorders. We also investigate the utility of RDW as an inflammatory marker in sleep disorders. Methods. Sample includes 9,901 noninstitutionalized, civilian, nonpregnant adults from the 2005-2008 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, a nationally representative, cross-sectional U.S. study. Sleep questionnaire and laboratory data were used to compare inflammatory markers (CRP and RDW) in five subgroups of individuals: reporting physician-diagnosed sleep apnea, reporting another physician-diagnosed sleep disorder, reported sleep disturbance to physician with no resulting diagnosis, unreported sleep disturbance (poor sleep quality not reported to physician), and no diagnosed sleep disorder or sleep disturbance. Results. Individuals with unreported sleep disturbance had significantly higher odds of elevated RDW (>13.6%) when compared to those without a sleep disturbance in adjusted models (OR=1.33). Those with unreported sleep disturbance had significantly higher odds of elevated CRP levels (>1 mg/L) than those without sleep disturbances (OR 1.34), although the association was not significant when adjusted for obesity and other controls. Conclusion. Self-identified unreported sleep disturbances are associated with significantly higher odds of elevated RDW than those without sleep disturbances. RDW may serve as a valuable indicator in identifying individuals at higher risk for sleep apnea and other sleep disorders.

Abstract:
Background and Objective: This study compared sleep disturbances between older adults living in nursing home located in high- and low-altitude areas and explored the association between sleep disturbances and quality of life (QoL). Method: In total, 207 participants living in a high-altitude area and 437 participants in a low-altitude area were included. Sleep disturbances (ie, difficulty in initiating sleep, difficulty in maintaining sleep, and early morning awakening) were measured using standardized questions. The independent demographic and clinical correlates of sleep disturbances in high-altitude area were examined using multiple logistic regression analyses. Each type of sleep disturbance was entered as the dependent variable separately, while those with significant group differences in the univariate analyses (ie, male gender, married status, age and depressive symptoms) were entered as independent variables. Results: The prevalence of any type of sleep disturbances in the whole sample was 26.09%, with 41.54% in the high-altitude area and 18.76% in the low-altitude area. Physical, psychological, social, and environmental QoL domains were negatively associated with sleep disturbances in high-altitude area. Multiple logistic regression analyses revealed that male gender and married status were less likely to have sleep disturbances, while those with more severe depressive symptoms were more likely to have sleep disturbances in high-altitude area. Conclusion: Sleep disturbance is common among older nursing home residents in high-altitude areas. Considering the negative impact of sleep disturbance on QoL, regular screening and treatment strategies need to be developed directly for this population.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTObjectives:Nearly 40% of care home residents who are living with dementia also have symptoms of disturbed sleep. However, the impact of these disturbances is relatively unknown and is needed to indicate whether interventions are warranted; therefore, we aimed to investigate the impact.Design:One-to-one semi-structured interviews.Settings:Four UK care homes.Participants:We interviewed 18 nurses and care assistants about residents with sleep disturbances.Measurements:We used a topic guide to explore staff experience of sleep disturbance in residents with dementia. The interviews were audio recorded and transcribed and then analyzed thematically by two researchers independently.Results:Staff described that sleep disturbances in most, but not all, residents impacted negatively on the resident, other residents, staff, and relatives. Residents became more irritable or agitated if they had slept badly. They slept in the daytime after a bad night, which then increased their chances of being awake the following night. For some, being sleepy in the day led to falls, missing medication, drinks, and meals. Staff perceived hypnotics as having low efficacy, but increasing the risk of falls and drowsiness. Other residents were disturbed by noise, and staff described stress when several residents had sleep disturbance. Some of the strategies reported by staff to deal with sleep disturbances such as feeding or providing caffeinated tea at night might be counterproductive.Conclusions:Sleep disturbances in care home residents living with dementia negatively affect their physical and psychological well-being. These disturbances also disturb other residents and increase stress in staff.

Abstract:
Background/Aims Sleep disturbances are common among children with cerebral palsy, resulting in adverse consequences. Investigating the association between leisure activities and sleep disturbances could help to develop ways to promote their sleep quality. This study primarily aimed to investigate the association between leisure activities and sleep disturbances among children with and without cerebral palsy. The secondary aim was to study the prevalence of sleep disturbances and some of its associated factors. Methods A total of 75 children with cerebral palsy (study group) (mean age 10.0 ± 2.5 years) and 75 typically developing children (control group) (mean age 10.5 ± 2.9 years) were randomly selected to completed the Children's Assessment of Participation and Enjoyment. Sleep disturbances were assessed using the Sleep Disturbance Scale for Children. Factors associated with sleep disturbances (age, gender, school attendance, bedroom sharing, type of cerebral palsy, motor functions, eating and drinking ability and communication functions) were statistically analysed and the prevalence of sleep disturbances was calculated. Results Overall frequency of leisure participation was strongly correlated with overall sleep disturbances (P<0.001) among both groups. The prevalence of overall sleep disturbances was 17.1% and 10.6% among the study and the control groups respectively. Eating and drinking ability and spastic quadriplegia emerged as the strongest predictors of overall negative scores on the Sleep Disturbance Scale for Children. Conclusions Greater participation in leisure activities is associated with better sleep. Occupational therapists are encouraged to consider this association when planning for occupation-based interventions aimed at enhancing occupational performance.

Abstract:
Objective: This was a descriptive study with the objective to determine the sleep disturbances and the quality of sleep among patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVDs).Methods: Quantitative approach with non-experimental descriptive design was used. A semi-structured sleep disturbance questionnaire was used to determine the sleep disturbances, and a standardized Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index tool was used to assess the sleep quality among 100 subjects in Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences, Kochi.Results: The study results showed that majority of the subjects (51%) were of the age group between 56 and 65 years, and 71% were male with CVD. Sleep disturbances were present in 80% of the subjects with CVD, among which 56% subjects had mild disturbances, 20% subjects with moderate sleep disturbances, and 4% subjects with severe sleep disturbances. The result also indicated that 48% of subjects had poor sleep quality. Findings also showed a highly statistically significant association between cardiomyopathy and sleep disturbances (p<0.001). Total cholesterol and low-density cholesterol levels were significantly associated with sleep disturbances (p<0.05). There is a highly significant association between sleep disturbances and quality of sleep (p<0.001), indicating that sleep disturbances can be one factor in decreasing the quality of sleep in patients with CVD.Conclusion: The results of the study indicated that sleep disturbances were prevalent in patients with CVD and often hazardous to heart health. As health practitioner and other health-care providers have not focused major attention on the importance of sleep to health, the need for providing information to them and patients regarding the importance of improving the quality of sleep and identifying the sleep disturbances will call for action to bring sleep to the forefront of public health.

Abstract:
Background: Sleep disturbance is a common problem among patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Objectives: To investigate the prevalence of daytime somnolence and night-time sleep disturbances; to characterise the night-time sleep disturbance in patients with daytime somnolence; and to determine the correlation between daytime somnolence and night-time sleep disturbances. Methods: One hundred and sixty patients with PD were included in the study. Each patient completed the Thai version of the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) questionnaire to evaluate excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), and the PD Sleep Scale version-2 (PDSS-2) questionnaire to evaluate night-time sleep disturbance. Subjective sleep information and details about the presence or absence of sleep attack (SA) were also obtained from the patients. Results: The types of daytime somnolence found in this study were EDS, SA, and combination of EDS and SA (EDS + SA) with the prevalence rates of 22.5, 3.1 and 6.3%, respectively. The prevalence of night-time sleep disturbance was 46.9%. The most common nocturnal disturbance (82.5%) was “get up at night to pass urine”. There was a significant positive correlation between the ESS score and PDSS-2 total score with a correlation coefficient of 0.16 (p = 0.043). Patients with “EDS + SA” were the most affected by nocturnal disturbances, as they represented the largest group among those patients with night-time disturbances and had the highest PDSS-2 total score (p < 0.05). Conclusion: There are differences in nocturnal sleep disturbances among PD patients with different types of daytime somnolence. The significant positive correlation between the ESS and the PDSS-2 total scores suggests that night-time sleep disturbance may influence daytime somnolence.

Abstract:
The role of emotional regulation as a predictor for forthcoming sleep disturbances was investigated within the Prospective Investigations on Psychological Processes for Insomnia (PIPPI) study. Participants were classified to one of four sleep groups in accordance with a classification algorithm based on self report-data on nighttime symptoms, daytime symptoms, and sleep disorders other than insomnia. Measures of baseline emotional regulation were then examined as a predictor for follow-up sleep group affiliation. The results indicate that emotional regulation is a non-significant predictor of forthcoming sleep disturbances, also when individual sleep group-movements are controlled for. It is suggested that models on how sleep disturbances evolve are revised, that measures of emotional regulation are refined, and that a person oriented approach is adopted.
Betydelsen av emotionell reglering som prediktor för kommande sömnstörningar undersöktes inom projektet "Prospektiva undersökningar på psykologiska processer rörande insomni". Baserat på självrapporteringsdata för nattidssymptom, dagtidssymptom och andra sömnstörningar än insomni, klassificerades deltagarna till en av fyra sömngrupper i enlighet med en klassificeringsalgoritm. Baslinjedata för emotionell reglering undersöktes sedan som prediktor för sömngruppstillhörighet vid uppföljningsmätningen. Resultatet indikerar att emotionell reglering inte är en signifikant prediktor för kommande sömnstörningar, detta även när individuella förflyttningar mellan sömngrupper tas i beaktande. Det föreslås att modeller för hur sömnstörningar utvecklas revideras, att mått för emotionell reglering förfinas samt att en personorienterad ansats antas.

Abstract:
Abstract Depression, anxiety and sleep disorders have been reported to be associated with low level of inflammation, i.e., low-grade inflammation, but mainly in males. The evidence has mainly been based on laboratory or clinical studies with small sample sizes or epidemiological studies with elderly subpopulations. In this study the association of low-grade inflammation with depression, anxiety, and sleep disturbances was investigated using the Northern Finland 1966 Birth Cohort (NFBC 1966). In women, the effect of hormonal factors, menopause and the use of oral contraceptives/hormone replacement therapy on the association between low-grade inflammation and depression was also studied by using the Pieksämäki Study data. In 31-year follow-up of NFBC 1966 (N=6007), the depressive and anxiety symptoms were assessed by Hopkins Symptom Checklist-25 (HSCL-25) and sleep disorders by 15-D questionnaires, while the marker of low-grade inflammation, plasma concentration of high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), was measured. In the Pieksämäki study a representative sample of inhabitants in the town of Pieksämäki were invited to clinical examination. Depressive symptoms were obtained by Beck’s Depression Inventory-21, and hs-CRP was measured (512 women). The results of this study revealed that at epidemiological level, elevated hs CRP levels of ≥1.0 mg/L increased the probability of current depressive symptoms of single depressive episode in the two highest subgroups (i.e., HSCL-25 mean scores ≥1.75 and ≥2.01) 1.4- and 1.7- fold in males, respectively. In addition, anxiety symptoms (HSCL-25 anxiety scale mean score ≥1.75) increased independently the probability of elevated hs-CRP levels (>3.0 mg/L) in males over 2-fold. Risk ratio of 1.3 was found for males with moderate to severe sleep disturbances and elevated hs-CRP levels (≥1.0 mg/L). Regarding females, a positive correlation between elevated hs-CRP levels and depressive symptoms was found only among peri- and postmenopausal women not using exogenous hormones. The results suggest that low-grade inflammation is associated not only with depression but also with anxiety and sleep disturbances in young adult men. In women, hormonal factors may have an effect on the association between low-grade inflammation and depression. Further investigations are called for to confirm these findings and furthermore, to determine the possible role of low-grade inflammation in the pathophysiology of these disorders
Tiivistelmä Depressio, ahdistuneisuushäiriöt ja unihäiriöt on yhdistetty elimistön matala-asteiseen tulehdustilaan, joskin pääasiallisesti vain miehillä. Tulosten yleistettävyyttä ovat rajoittaneet tutkimusten pienet otoskoot tai painottuminen iäkkäisiin väestöaineistoihin. Tässä tutkimuksessa selvitettiin matala-asteisen tulehduksen yhteyttä depressioon, ahdistuneisuuteen ja unihäiriöihin Pohjois-Suomen syntymäkohortti 1966 -aineistossa. Lisäksi Pieksämäki-tutkimuksen aineistossa selvitettiin naisilla menopaussin ja ehkäisyvalmisteiden/vaihdevuosihormonikorvaushoidon vaikutusta depression ja matala-asteisen tulehduksen väliseen yhteyteen. Pohjois-Suomen syntymäkohortti 1966 -tutkimuksen 31-vuotisseurannassa kartoitettiin 6007 henkilöltä masennus- ja ahdistuneisuusoireita Hopkins Symptom Checklist-25 -arviointiasteikolla (HSCL-25) ja unihäiriöitä 15-D-kyselyllä. Lisäksi mitattiin matala-asteisen tulehduksen mittarina käytetyn herkän C-reaktiivisen proteiinin (CRP) pitoisuus. Pieksämäki-tutkimuksessa edustava otos Pieksämäen asukkaista kutsuttiin kliiniseen tutkimukseen ja depressiivisiä oireita kartoitettiin Beckin 21-osioisella arviointiasteikolla ja mitattiin herkkä CRP (512 naista). Nuorilla aikuisilla miehillä, joiden herkkä CRP oli kohonnut (≥1.0 mg/l), todettiin 1.7-kertainen masennusoireiden riski, kun katkaisupisteenä käytettiin HSCL-25-kyselyn masennuskeskiarvopistettä ≥2.01. Ahdistuneisuusoireet (HSCL-25-kyselyn ahdistuneisuuskeskiarvopisteet ≥1.75) lisäsivät kohonneen herkän CRP:n riskiä (>3.0 mg/l) yli kaksinkertaiseksi miehillä. Keskivaikeasta tai vaikeasta unihäiriöstä kärsivillä todettiin 1.3-kertainen kohonneen herkän CRP:n (≥1.0 mg/l) riski. Naisilla positiivinen yhteys masennuksen ja kohonneen herkän CRP:n välillä todettiin vain peri- ja postmenopausaalisilla naisilla, jotka eivät käyttäneet hormonikorvaushoitoa tai suun kautta otettavia ehkäisyvalmisteita. Tutkimustulokset viittaavat matala-asteisen tulehduksen liittyvän depressioon, ahdistukseen ja unihäiriöön nuorilla aikuisilla miehillä. Naisilla hormonaaliset seikat mahdollisesti vaikuttavat depression ja matala-asteisen tulehduksen väliseen yhteyteen. Tulevaisuuden tutkimushaasteena on selvittää matala-asteisen inflammaation mahdollinen merkitys depression, ahdistuneisuuden ja unihäiriöiden patofysiologiassa

Full text
Abstract:
Sleep disturbances are prevalent in primary care patients and can be exacerbated by interpersonal dysfunction and depression. As well, thwarted interpersonal needs (TIN), including thwarted belongingness and perceived burdensomeness, contribute to depression. However, the presence of gratitude, a cognitive-emotional protective factor, may improve symptoms. We longitudinally examined the mediating role of depressive symptoms on the relation between TIN and sleep disturbances, and the moderating role of gratitude on the TIN-sleep disturbances and depression-sleep disturbances linkages. Our primary care patient sample (N = 223) completed self-report surveys at baseline (T1) and at a one-year follow-up (T2; n = 97). Patients with greater TIN reported more depressive symptoms (T1) and, in turn, increased sleep disturbances (T2). Gratitude did not moderate the belongingness model but, in the burdensomeness model, buffered the linkage between burdensomeness and sleep disturbances and strengthened the relation between depressive symptoms and sleep disturbances. Clinical implications and future research directions are discussed.

Abstract:
Sleep disturbances and insomnia are prevalent, with around 33% of adults indicating that they experience at least one main symptom of insomnia, and bidirectional relationships exist with common psychopathology, particularly major depressive disorder (MDD). However, genetic and environmental (e.g., traumatic event exposure) contributions to the etiology of these phenotypes are not yet well understood. A genetically informative sample of approximately 12,000 Han Chinese women aged 30-60 (50% with recurrent MDD) was used to address several gaps within the sleep literature. Sleep disturbances were assessed in all individuals using a general item addressing sleeplessness (GS). A sleep within depression sum score (SDS) was also created in MDD cases, combining information from the GS and two insomnia items within MDD. A total of 11 traumatic events were assessed and additional information on childhood sexual abuse (CSA) was also obtained. First, factor analyses were conducted to determine trauma factor structure. The best-fit solution included 3 factors: interpersonal, child interpersonal, and non-assaultive, and composite variables were constructed accordingly. A series of hierarchical regressions were run to examine differential effects of trauma type and timing on sleeplessness. All traumatic events predicted sleeplessness at similar magnitudes, although population models indicated that childhood interpersonal trauma may be particularly potent. An association between CSA and sleeplessness was also replicated. A series of genetic analyses demonstrated that the single nucleotide polymorphism-based heritability of sleep phenotypes did not differ significantly from zero. Further, association analyses did not identify any genome-wide significant loci. However, using a liberal false discovery rate threshold of 0.5, two genes of interest, KCNK9 and ALDH1A2, emerged for the SDS. Polygenic risk score (PRS) analyses demonstrated genetic overlap between the SDS in MDD cases and GS in MDD controls, with PRSs explaining 0.2-0.3% of the variance. A final combined model of both genetic and environmental risk indicated that both PRS and traumatic events were significant predictors of sleeplessness. While genetic results should be interpreted with caution given the lack of heritability, additional research into the genetic and environmental contributions to insomnia, utilizing more standardized phenotypes and properly ascertained samples, is clearly warranted.

Full text
Abstract:
Poor sleep and pain conditions present a major public health challenge due to their pervasive impact on well-being. Using a mix of experimental and observational methodologies, this thesis assesses sleep disruptions and its potential associations with the experience of pain. Chapter 4 comprises two experimental studies in healthy young adults (n = 57; n = 118) revealing that impairment in central pain inhibitory processes (conditioned pain modulation response) may be associated with self- reported sleep disruptions. The studies also support the validity of the conditioned pain modulation response as a physiological marker of pain inhibition. Chapter 5 presented a quasi-experimental study comparing chronic pain groups (Fibromyalgia n = 9; Chronic Back Pain n = 8) with healthy controls (n = 9) across range of self-reported and objective sleep and pain-related parameters. Findings revealed differences in patterns of self-reported sleep but not objective sleep between the two chronic pain conditions compared with healthy controls. The study also provided some extension of the findings from Chapter 4 by exploring the associations of objective sleep disturbance with less efficient pain inhibitory processes. To expand on these findings, the thesis adopted an epidemiological approach to explore the long-term interrelationship between sleep and pain-related outcomes in the general population. A systematic literature review (Chapter 6) of 16 longitudinal studies involving 61,000 participants consolidated evidence that changes in sleep are associated with several dimensions of the pain experience (risk of developing a pain condition, elevations in levels of inflammatory markers, and a decline in self-reported physical health status). Finally, Chapter 7 presents an analysis of a sample of the UK population and revealed the association between four-year changes in different insomnia symptom (sleep onset latency, awakenings, and daytime sleepiness) and perceived physical and psychological well-being in the general population (n = 30,594) and a subgroup with arthritis (n = 4,300). Overall, the findings from this thesis provide support for the associations of sleep disturbances with the processes underlying and shaping the experience of pain. The thesis highlights future research and beneficial interventions aimed at improving sleep and addressing associated pain-related health outcomes.

Background: Medical residency can be a time of increased psychological stress and sleep disturbance. We examine the prospective associations between self-reported sleep quality and resident wellness across a single training year. Methods: Sixty-nine (N69) resident physicians completed the Brief Resident Wellness Profile (M17.66, standard deviation [SD] 3.45, range: 017) and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (M6.22, SD 2.86, range: 1225) at multiple occasions in a single training year. We examined the 1-month lagged effect of sleep disturbances on residents’ self-reported wellness. Results: Accounting for residents’ overall level of sleep disturbance across the entire study period, both the concurrent (within-person) within-occasion effect of sleep disturbance (B 0.20, standard error [SE]0.06, p0.003, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.33, 0.07) and the lagged within-person effect of resident sleep disturbance (B 0.15, SE0.07, p0.037, 95% CI: 0.29, 0.009) were significant predictors of decreased resident wellness. Increases in sleep disturbances are a leading indicatorof resident wellness, predicting decreased well-being 1 month later. Conclusions: Sleep quality exerts a significant effect on self-reported resident wellness. Periodic evaluation of sleep quality may alert program leadership and the residents themselves to impending decreases in psychological well-being.

Abstract:
This experimental case series provides a proof of concept for the beneficial effect of supplemental light to improve sleep behaviour in people with type 2 diabetes with no clinical retinopathy. Photoreceptor dysfunctions identified using novel pupillometry protocols in this population point towards sub-optimal entrainment of the master clock leading to sleep and circadian disruption. These preliminary data will guide future clinical trials in early-stage diabetes to develop light therapy for managing sleep disturbances.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: Mandibular advancement devices used to treat obstructive sleep apnea. Condition being studied: Obstructive sleep apnea is characterized by episodes of a complete (apnea) or partial collapse (hypopnea) of the upper airway with an associated decrease in oxygen saturation or arousal from sleep. This disturbance results in fragmented, nonrestorative sleep. Other symptoms include loud, disruptive snoring, witnessed apneas during sleep, and excessive daytime sleepiness. OSA has significant implications for cardiovascular health, mental illness, quality of life, and driving safety.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a disease in which fatigue strikes or lasts for more than 6 months, accompanied by pain, sleep disturbance, anxiety, and depression. Moreover, it brings a heavy economic burden to society. Traditional Chinese exercises (TCEs) are a traditional Chinese medical treatment and have good efficacy on CFS, therefore, this systematic evaluation is to accurately evaluate the efficacy of TCEs on CFS. P: Patients with chronic fatigue syndrome. I: Traditional Chinese exercises. C: conventional exercise, acupuncture, physiotherapy, and other physical therapy methods. O: quality of life, fatigue, pain, sleep, anxiety, and depression. S: randomized controlled trials. Condition being studied: Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a disease in which fatigue strikes or lasts for more than 6 months, accompanied by pain, sleep disturbance, anxiety, and depression. Moreover, it brings a heavy economic burden to society. Traditional Chinese exercises (TCEs) are a traditional Chinese medical treatment and have good efficacy on CFS. Therefore, this systematic evaluation is to accurately evaluate the efficacy of TCEs on CFS, to provide an alternative therapy for clinical treatment of CFS.
