A number of sleep-related breathing and respiratory disorders impact our ability to achieve a good night’s sleep. Unfortunately, these disorders are becoming increasingly common—a phenomenon that has been linked to the rising obesity rates in society. In this chapter we aim to provide an overview of how some of the most common disorders (particularly obstructive sleep apnoea) contribute to poor sleep, review how these disorders/diseases impact both the individual and society, and discuss some of the key challenges and hurdles that we, as a society, will need to overcome if we are to maximize sleep quality in the community.

We aimed to assess the prevalence of suicidal ideation and to examine the relationships between obstructive sleep apnoea severity, sleep-related problems, social support and suicidal ideation in obstructive sleep apnoea patients. We included 149 patients (68% male; mean age, 48.99 ± 9.57 years) with diagnosed obstructive sleep apnoea (Apnoea–Hypopnoea Index ⩾5) based on full-night polysomnography. The prevalence of suicidal ideation among obstructive sleep apnoea patients was 20.1 per cent. Structural equation modelling showed that suicidal ideation in obstructive sleep apnoea was strongly related to poor sleep quality and high fatigue levels. No relationship between social support and suicidal ideation in obstructive sleep apnoea patients was found.

Obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS) increases the risk cardiovascular events regardless of the presence of previous cardiovascular disease. As both OSAS and coronary heart disease (CHD) have same risk factors it’s often difficult to quantify the proportion of each risk factor in developing cardiac events. The aim of this study was to evaluate the 10-year risk of developing a coronary heart disease (CHD) event or stroke in newly diagnosed OSAS patients. 65 patients diagnosed with OSAS over a period of four months in Oradea Sleep Laboratory were included. Demographic characteristics, anthropometric parameters, clinical and biochemical data, sleep disorder and daytime sleepiness assessment, results of polysomnography were collected in all patients. In 55 selected patients by age range from 34 to 74 years old, cardiovascular risk was assessed using Framingham score calculator. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS-PC version 7.5 and Stata 10.The estimated 10-years risk of a CHD event was 18.97% (± 9.67) in all cases. It was higher in men (22.17% ± 9.24) compare to women (12.39% ± 6.92) and it was not significantly different by stages of OSAS severity (20.58% ±9.41 in patients with severe OSAS versus 15.4% in mild OSAS), suggesting that apnea hypopnea index is not a major confounding factor. Desaturation of oxygen is a better outcome to define the relation between OSAS and cardiovascular diseases. OSAS and cardiovascular risk factors increased risk for future adverse cardiovascular events related to the severity of oxygen desaturation.

Abstract Introduction To explore the prevalence of depressive symptoms and the associated risk factors in frontline nurses under COVID-19 pandemic. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted from February 20, 2020 to March 20, 2020 and involved 562 frontline nurses. The effective response rate was 87.68%. After propensity score matched, there were 498 participants left. Extensive characteristics, including demographics, dietary habits, life-related factors, work-related factors, and psychological factors were collected based on a self-reported questionnaire. Specific scales measured the levels of sleep quality, physical activity, depressive symptoms, perceived organization support and psychological capital. Adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were determined by binary paired logistic regression. Results Of the nurses enrolled in the study, 50.90% had depressive symptoms. Three independent risk factors were identified: poor sleep quality (OR = 1.608, 95% CI: 1.384–1.896), lower optimism of psychological capital (OR = 0.879, 95% CI: 0.805–0.960) and no visiting friend constantly (OR = 0.513, 95% CI: 0.286–0.920). Conclusions This study revealed a considerable high prevalence of depressive symptoms in frontline nurses during the COVID-19 outbreak, and identified three risk factors, which were poor sleep quality, lower optimism of psychological capital, and no visiting friend constantly. Protecting mental health of nurses is important for COVID-19 pandemic control and their wellbeing. These findings enrich the existing theoretical model of depression and demonstrated a critical need for additional strategies that could address the mental health in frontline nurses for policymakers.

Obstructive Sleep

Obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS) is the most severe condition on the spectrum of sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBDs). The Paediatric Sleep Questionnaire (PSQ) is one of the most used and validated screening tools, but it lacks the comprehensive assessment of some determinants of OSAS, specifically anamnestic assessment and sleep quality. This study aims to assess the accuracy of some specific items added to the original PSQ, particularly related to the patient’s anamnestic history and to the quality of sleep, for the screening of OSAS in a paediatric population living in Sicily (Italy). Fifteen specific items, divided into “anamnestic” and “related to sleep quality” were added to the original PSQ. The whole questionnaire was administered via a digital form to the parents of children at 4 schools (age range: 3–13 years). For each item, sensitivity and specificity, positive and negative predictive values, and positive and negative likelihood ratios were calculated. The highest sensitivity (80.0, 95% CI: 28.4; 99.5), in combination with the highest specificity (61.1, 95% CI: 35.7; 82.7), was found for the Item 32 (“assumption of bizarre or abnormal positions during sleep”). This item was found statistically significant for predicting the occurrence of OSAS in children (p-value ≤0.003). The study demonstrates the accuracy of specific items related to sleep quality disturbance for the preliminary assessment of the disease. Although these results should be validated on a larger sample of subjects, they suggest that including the factors discriminating sleep quality could further increase the efficiency and accuracy of PSQ.

Objective: To analyze the association of potential risk factors to health with body fatness and insulin resistance. Baseline measures of the ongoing longitudinal Analysis of Behaviors of Children During (ABCD) Growth Study. Materials and Methods: The sample was composed of 280 adolescents of both sexes (198 boys and 82 girls) aged from 10 to 18 years. Four risk factors were considered, as follows: no sports practice, skipping breakfast, poor sleep quality, and TV viewing. The outcomes considered were insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and body fatness (densitometer scanner). Age, sex, maturity offset, and ethnicity were treated as covariates. Results: No sports practice and skipping breakfast were associated with higher body fatness (Sports practice: Wald: 8.786; p = 0.003. Breakfast: Wald: 9.364; p = 0.002). Poor sleep quality was related to a greater HOMA-IR index (Wald: 6.013; p = 0.014). Adolescents with ≥3 risk factors presented a higher risk of high HOMA-IR (OR = 4.89 (95%CI: 1.61 to 14.84)) than their counterparts with no risk factors. Conclusion: Lifestyle risk factors seem relevant to affect obesity and insulin resistance, while the aggregation of these risk factors affects insulin resistance, independent of adiposity.

Background: Approximately 57% of individuals with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) suffer from sleep disorders and poor sleep quality. Poor sleep quality may cause excessive daytime sleepiness and is often associated with psychosocial and clinical factors contributing to disease burden and stress levels. One of these psychosocial factors is John Henryism (JH). Defined as a high-effort, active coping style, JH is used by persons with a strong determination to succeed in the face of chronic stressors. Both sleep and JH have mostly been shown to be negatively associated with cardiovascular health. Living with SCD is a unique stressor and how persons cope with their disease may impact their quality of life and health outcomes. The objective of this study is to 1) evaluate the impact of sleep quality and 2) quantify the effect of sleep quality on high-effort coping among persons with SCD. Methods: The sample comprised 191 adults aged 19-71 with SCD. Most participants were women (57%) and had a mean age of 39 years (SD+12.2) (see Table 1). All participants were enrolled in the Insights into Microbiome and Environmental Contributions to SCD and Leg Ulcers (INSIGHTS) study (NCT02156102). All participants were administered a variety of psychosocial measures, a comprehensive medical history and physical exam, and provided blood and saliva samples for clinical and research analysis. Our binary outcome assessed participants' high or low utilization of JH coping style by using the John Henryism Active Coping Scale (JHAC12). JHAC12 scores were measured from participant responses to a 12-item Likert scale. Scores range from 12 to 60 with higher scores indicting higher utilization of JH active coping. Based on the median JH score of our participants, scores between 12-50.9 were categorized as low utilization of JH and scores between 51-60 were categorized as high utilization of JH. Predictors included demographic data and psychosocial measures. Sleep quality was assessed via clinical and survey measures. Clinically, obstructive sleep apnea was self-reported during a comprehensive medical exam. The ASCQ-ME sleep survey is a 5-item measure, and was used to ascertain participant sleep patterns within the past seven days. Scores range from 40 to 60. Scores less than 50 are considered abnormal. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to evaluate differences within the cohort. Results: Mean ASCQ-ME sleep score of the entire cohort was 46, indicating worse sleep quality for participants compared to the ASCQ-ME national SCD reference cohort. Obstructive sleep-apnea was self-reported by 23 participants (12%). The mean JH score was 52, indicating high utilization of active coping. Poorer sleep quality was associated with higher JH coping (OR:1.14, 95% CI: [1.06-1.22]) (see Table 2). There were no significant associations between utilization of JH active coping with the demographic data including sex, age, education and marital status. Worse sleep quality within the SCD cohort was associated with increased usage of hydroxyurea (r= .16, p<.05), history of cardiovascular disease (r= .13, p<.05), higher pain score at study visit (r=.15, p<.05) and increased systolic blood pressure (r=.18, p<.01). Conclusion: Preliminary findings support a relationship between JH and sleep quality in a SCD cohort. In a disease population with high sleep apnea prevalence, these findings have potential clinical implications. Future work should focus on how these psychosocial factors impact sleep and clinical presentation. Disclosures Minniti: Doris Duke Foundation: Research Funding.
