Representative Samples

SummaryShort sleep duration is associated with obesity in young children. This study develops the hypothesis that parental rules play a role in this association. Participants were 3-year-old children and their parents, recruited at nursery schools in socioeconomically deprived and non-deprived areas of a North-East England town. Parents were interviewed to assess their use of sleep, television-viewing and dietary rules, and given diaries to document their child's sleep for 4 days/5 nights. Children were measured for height, weight, waist circumference and triceps and subscapular skinfold thicknesses. One-hundred and eight families participated (84 with complete sleep data and 96 with complete body composition data). Parental rules were significantly associated together, were associated with longer night-time sleep and were more prevalent in the non-deprived-area compared with the deprived-area group. Television-viewing and dietary rules were associated with leaner body composition. Parental rules may in part confound the association between night-time sleep duration and obesity in young children, as rules cluster together across behavioural domains and are associated with both sleep duration and body composition. This hypothesis should be tested rigorously in large representative samples.

Time Use Survey

The objective was to investigate the association between time spent on waking activities and nonaligned sleep duration in a representative sample of the US population. We analysed time use data from the American Time Use Survey (ATUS), 2015–2017 (N = 31,621). National Sleep Foundation (NSF) age-specific sleep recommendations were used to define recommended (aligned) sleep duration. The balanced, repeated, replicate variance estimation method was applied to the ATUS data to calculate weighted estimates. Less than half of the US population had a sleep duration that mapped onto the NSF recommendations, and alignment was higher on weekdays (45%) than at weekends (33%). The proportion sleeping longer than the recommended duration was higher than those sleeping shorter on both weekdays and weekends (p < 0.001). Time spent on work, personal care, socialising, travel, TV watching, education, and total screen time was associated with nonalignment to the sleep recommendations. In comparison to the appropriate recommended sleep group, those with a too-short sleep duration spent more time on work, travel, socialising, relaxing, and leisure. By contrast, those who slept too long spent relatively less time on each of these activities. The findings indicate that sleep duration among the US population does not map onto the NSF sleep recommendations, mostly because of a higher proportion of long sleepers compared to short sleepers. More time spent on work, travel, and socialising and relaxing activities is strongly associated with an increased risk of nonalignment to NSF sleep duration recommendations.

Insomnia Severity

Abstract Introduction Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is efficacious, but there is mixed evidence as to whether improvement is blunted in adults with insomnia and short sleep duration. Exercise training can reduce physiologic hyperarousal and may increase homeostatic sleep drive, which could potentiate CBT-I treatment effects. This pilot study explored changes in self-reported outcomes from a CBT-I intervention augmented by exercise training in a sample of adults with insomnia and objective short sleep duration. Methods Eight adults (50% female, 62.5% white) with insomnia disorder and short sleep duration (mean actigraphic TST &lt;6.5 hr) completed a 12-week single-arm trial. Participants self-administered the online “Sleep Healthy Using the Internet” (SHUT-I) CBT-I program with additional staff guidance while completing a supervised exercise program (EX; 150 min/wk of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise and 2 days/wk of strength training). Participants completed assessments of self-reported sleep and daytime function pre- and post-intervention, including the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), Flinders Fatigue Scale (FFS), Ford Insomnia Response to Stress Test (FIRST), Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), and Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS). Differences between timepoints were analyzed using paired t-tests and Cohen’s d effect size calculations. Results Insomnia severity significantly decreased after the intervention (ISI: p&lt;0.001, d=2.99), with 75% reporting post-intervention ISI ≤ 7. Likewise, fatigue significantly decreased after the intervention (FFS: p=0.032, d=0.95). Symptoms of stress-related sleep reactivity and stress were also reduced (FIRST: p=0.012, d=1.19; PSS: p=0.014, d=1.14). Though nonsignificant, large reductions in sleepiness were additionally observed (ESS: p=0.058, d=0.80). Conclusion In this pilot trial among patients with insomnia and short sleep duration, online CBT-I plus a supervised exercise program resulted in a significant reduction in insomnia severity. The intervention also produced large and meaningful reductions in fatigue and stress, which are common daytime impairments in patients with insomnia. Future research should attempt to disentangle the independent contributions of CBT-I and exercise on outcomes in this population. Support (if any) NIH: K23HL118318

Abstract Aims Observational studies have suggested strong associations between sleep duration and many cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), but causal inferences have not been confirmed. We aimed to determine the causal associations between genetically predicted sleep duration and 12 CVDs using both linear and nonlinear Mendelian randomization (MR) designs. Methods and results Genetic variants associated with continuous, short (≤6 h) and long (≥9 h) sleep durations were used to examine the causal associations with 12 CVDs among 404 044 UK Biobank participants of White British ancestry. Linear MR analyses showed that genetically predicted sleep duration was negatively associated with arterial hypertension, atrial fibrillation, pulmonary embolism, and chronic ischaemic heart disease after correcting for multiple tests (P &lt; 0.001). Nonlinear MR analyses demonstrated nonlinearity (L-shaped associations) between genetically predicted sleep duration and four CVDs, including arterial hypertension, chronic ischaemic heart disease, coronary artery disease, and myocardial infarction. Complementary analyses provided confirmative evidence of the adverse effects of genetically predicted short sleep duration on the risks of 5 out of the 12 CVDs, including arterial hypertension, pulmonary embolism, coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, and chronic ischaemic heart disease (P &lt; 0.001), and suggestive evidence for atrial fibrillation (P &lt; 0.05). However, genetically predicted long sleep duration was not associated with any CVD. Conclusion This study suggests that genetically predicted short sleep duration is a potential causal risk factor of several CVDs, while genetically predicted long sleep duration is unlikely to be a causal risk factor for most CVDs.
