Aims This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between sleep duration, sleep quality and hyperlipidemia in middle-aged and older Chinese. Methods We included 20,712 individuals at baseline from September 2008 to June 2010, and they were followed-up until October 2013. Hyperlipidemia was defined according to the Chinese guidelines on the prevention and treatment of dyslipidemia in adults. Sleep duration was self-reported and sleep quality was evaluated with a questionnaire that was designed according to the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Logistic regression and Cox proportional hazard models were conducted to explore the associations. Results In the cross-sectional analyses, longer sleep duration (≥10 h) was significantly associated with higher prevalence of hyperlipidemia (odds ratio (OR) = 1.17, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.02–1.35) after adjusting for potential confounders. The ORs of hyperlipidemia were significantly elevated among participants with impaired sleep quality (OR = 1.14, 95% CI = 1.08–1.22) and poor sleep quality (OR = 1.20, 95% CI = 1.08–1.34) when compared to those with good sleep quality. In the longitudinal analyses, compared to participants with a sleep duration of 7–<8 h, those with a sleep duration of 9–<10 h (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.19, 95% CI = 1.04–1.35) and ≥10 h (HR = 1.27, 95% CI = 1.02–1.58) showed significantly higher risk of hyperlipidemia after adjusting for potential confounders. However, no statistically significant association was found between impaired or poor sleep quality and hyperlipidemia. Conclusions Longer sleep duration was significantly associated with higher risk of hyperlipidemia. Impaired or poor sleep quality were associated with elevated prevalence of hyperlipidemia, but not with the incidence of hyperlipidemia.

The main purpose of the present study was to explore the associations of sleep duration and sleep quality with self-rated health. In this cross-sectional study, participants were 894 elderly individuals. Self-rated health, sleep duration, and sleep quality were self-reported. The associations were examined using multiple logistic regression analyses.After adjusting for sex, physical activity, smoking consumption, alcohol consumption, psychological distress, socioeconomic status, and chronic disease/s, sleeping <6 h (OR (Odds ratio) = 3.21; 95% CI (95 percent confident interval) 1.61 to 6.39), 6–7 h (OR = 2.47; 95% CI 1.40 to 4.36), 8–9 h (OR = 3.26; 95% CI 1.82 to 5.83), and >9 h (OR = 3.62; 95% CI 1.57 to 8.34) and having ‘poor’ sleep quality (≥5 points; OR = 2.33; 95% CI 1.46 to 3.73) were associated with ‘poor’ self-rated health. When sleep duration and sleep quality were entered simultaneously into the model, the same associations remained. Our findings provide evidence that both ‘short’ and ‘long’ sleep and ‘poor’ sleep quality are associated with ‘poor’ self-rated health. Thus, interventions that promote healthy sleep hygiene in the elderly are warranted.

Abstract Objectives To assess the prevalence of impaired sleep quality and depression in a rheumatoid arthritis population and determine their correlation with Disease Activity Score (DAS) and its components. Methods In this single-centre observational cross-sectional study, data was collected by the assessing clinician for DAS28, age and gender in various treatment groups according to use of csDMARDs, biologics and long-term steroids. Presence of impaired sleep quality and depression was assessed by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Public Health Questionnaire 9 (PHQ 9). Correlation for DAS and its components with the outcomes was determined by Pearson’s correlation coefficient. Multivariate analysis was performed by logistic regression. Results Two hundred patients were included. The prevalence across all subgroups of poor sleep quality and depression were 86.5% and 30%, respectively, with a correlation coefficient of 0.69 between the two and poor sleep quality amongst all RA patients with comorbid depression. Multivariate analysis found only subjective DAS components, tender joint count (TJC) and patient global health visual analogue score (VAS) to significantly correlate with both outcomes. Age inversely correlated with depression. Long-term steroid use was associated with poorer sleep quality, but there was no significant effect of csDMARDs or biologics. There was no significant difference in prevalence of depression amongst treatment subgroups. Conclusion Poor sleep quality and to a lesser extent depression are prevalent in the general rheumatoid arthritis population. Patients would benefit from clinicians measuring these outcomes routinely as they constitute a significant non-inflammatory burden of living with rheumatoid disease. Key Points• Subjective components of DAS independently correlate with sleep quality and depression, while objective components do not.• Poor sleep quality is highly prevalent in RA and present in all those with comorbid depression.• Poor sleep quality and depression incidence in RA are much lower when DAS is low or remission.

Abstract Introduction Although caregiving is associated with shorter sleep durations and worse sleep quality, particularly among employed individuals, these studies have mostly examined household (i.e., child, adult) and domestic caregiving among majority non-Latinx White samples. Sending remittances, a form of transnational caregiving whereby financial support is provided to relatives in one’s country of origin, is associated with positive mental health among Latinxs, yet its association with sleep remains unexamined. We examined the association of household and transnational caregiving with sleep duration and quality, and explored the moderating effects of employment status on these relationships. Methods Using cross-sectional data of healthy Latinx adults in New York City (N=188), we conducted separate age and gender-adjusted linear regressions or logistic regressions to examine the association of caregiving and sleep duration, and poor sleep quality, respectively. Sleep duration (continuous) and sleep quality (fairly/very poor) were measured using two items from the PSQI. Household caregiving was defined as caregiving for children or adults in the household. Transnational caregiving was operationalized as sending remittances. Moderation was tested using employment status*caregiving cross-products in adjusted models. Results Participants were Mage=37.61(SD=14.07), 71.3% employed, 66.5% female, and 59.6% immigrants. Overall, 14.9% were household caregivers and 28.72% sent remittances. Household caregiving was not significantly associated with sleep duration or quality. Those who sent remittances reported on average sleeping 27.63 minutes less than non-remitters (b=-27.63,SE=13.93,p&lt;0.05). Sending remittances was associated with 2.30 increased odds of reporting poor sleep quality (OR:2.30; 95%CI:1.03-5.14.) Employment status was a significant moderator (p&lt;0.05). Among those who were employed, sending remittances was associated with 3 times higher odds of poor sleep quality (OR:3.00;95%CI:1.46-10.59) and 48.94 fewer minutes of sleep duration than non-remitters (b=-48.94,SE=15.72,p&lt;0.05). These relationships were not observed among unemployed Latinxs. Conclusion Transnational caregivers were more likely to report shorter sleep duration and poorer sleep quality than their counterparts, and this was only observed among employed vs. unemployed Latinxs. Household caregiving was not significantly associated with sleep. Employed transnational caregivers may have multiple jobs that further constrain opportunities for longer and high-quality sleep. Future studies should examine potential upstream factors (e.g., working conditions) that may limit employed, transnational caregivers’ ability to obtain adequate sleep. Support (if any):

An association between physical illness and sleep has been suggested. Disordered chewing might be a physical factor that is associated with sleep issues. This cross-sectional study aimed to determine whether chewing problems are associated with sleep in Japanese adults. Sleep and chewing issues were evaluated in 6,025 community residents using a self-reported questionnaire. The prevalence of poor sleep quality and sleeping for <6 h/day (short duration) were 15.6% and 29.4%, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that prevalence of poor sleep quality was significantly associated with self-reported medical history (odds ratio (OR), 1.30; p<0.001), self-reported symptoms (OR, 4.59; p<0.001), chewing problems (OR, 1.65; p<0.001), and poor glycemic control (OR, 1.43; p=0.035). The prevalence of short sleep duration was also significantly associated with female sex (OR, 1.23; p=0.001), self-reported symptoms (OR, 1.60; p<0.001), chewing problems (OR, 1.30; p=0.001), and being overweight (OR, 1.41; p<0.001). In conclusion, chewing problems were associated with poor sleep quality and short sleep duration among Japanese adults.

Short sleep duration or poor sleep quality has been associated with an increased risk of obesity. Although the underlying mechanism remains unclear, one proposed pathway is poor diet quality. This cross-sectional study investigated whether diet quality modifies the association between sleep status and obesity in Korean adults. We used the baseline data and samples of 737 men and 428 women (n = 1165) aged 19–64, who participated in the prospective Ewha–Boramae cohort study. Sleep duration was dichotomized into ≥7 h (adequate) and <7 h (insufficient). Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) values, reflecting sleep quality, were dichotomized into >5 (poor quality) and ≤5 (good quality). Diet quality was evaluated by the Recommended Food Score (RFS). Obesity was associated with higher rates of insufficient sleep and poor sleep quality in women, but not in men. After adjustment for covariates, women with poor sleep quality had a higher risk of obesity than women with good sleep quality (OR = 2.198; 95% CI = 1.027–4.704); this association occurred only in the group with RFS ≤ median score. Our findings support a significant association between sleep quality and obesity, and this association has been potentially modified by dietary quality in women.

Background: The relationship between children's sleep and health has been widely examined; however, research focused on the link between sleep and sensory reactivity in children without medical conditions is relatively new and based on studies with small samples. Hence, we aimed at exploring the association between sleep duration and quality and prevalence of sensory reactivity in a population-based sample of children aged 3–7.Methods: We examined data on 579 school-age children from the InProS project, a cross-sectional population-based study. Children's sleep duration was classified as &lt;10 vs. ≥10 h/day, and sleep quality was measured using the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire, defining poor quality sleep as a score of ≥0.33. The Short Sensory Profile (SSP) was used to classify children with or without sensory reactivity using the cut-off points proposed by W. Dunn for SSP total score and each SSP subscale. Prevalence ratios (PR) using Poisson multiple regression models with robust variance were estimated to examine main associations.Results: Around a third (32.6%; n = 189) slept &lt;10 h/day and 10.4% presented poor sleep quality. The prevalence of sensory reactivity was 29.5% for total SSP (&lt;155), 11.4% for tactile sensitivity (&lt;30), 15% for taste/smell sensitivity (&lt;15), 22.5% for movement sensitivity (&lt;13), 49.1% for under-responsive/seeks sensation (&lt;27), 44.4% for auditory filtering (&lt;23), 12.4% for low energy/weak (&lt;26), and 25.4% for visual/auditory sensitivity (&lt;19). Main findings indicated that poor sleep quality was significantly associated with a greater prevalence of sensory reactivity for SSP total score (PR = 1.27; IC 95%: 1.18; 1.38), tactile sensitivity (PR = 1.09, IC95%: 1.00–1.19), taste/smell sensitivity (PR = 1.18, IC95%: 1.08–1.30), under-responsive/seeks sensation (PR = 1.28, IC95%: 1.20–1.37), auditory filtering (PR = 1.31, IC95%: 1.23–1.39), low energy/weak (PR = 1.14, IC95%: 1.04–1.25) and audiovisual sensitivity (PR = 1.15, IC95%: 1.05–1.26) scores after adjusting for potential confounders.Conclusions: In this study, we observed that poor sleep quality was statistically significantly associated with a higher prevalence of sensory reactivity as measured by the total SSP and almost all SSP subscales. To our knowledge, this is the first time that this association has been explored and reported. Further research from prospective studies is required to confirm these findings.

Background: Sleep disturbance is associated with multiple adverse cardiovascular-related health outcomes. Little is known about the relationship between psychological well-being, an independent modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease, and sleep disruptions. This study examines cross-sectional and longitudinal associations of optimism with sleep duration and quality. Methods: Data were collected from 3,549 Black and White adults aged 33-45 years who participated in the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) study during follow-up years 15 (2000-2001) and 20 (2005-2006). Optimism was assessed in 2000-2001 using the Life-Orientation Test—Revised, with possible scores ranging from 6 (least optimistic) to 30 (most optimistic). Single-item questions on sleep quality and duration in the past month were assessed during 2000-2001 and 2005-2006. Cross-sectional analyses considered optimism and sleep measures at follow-up year 15. Longitudinal analyses considered 5-year incidence of poor sleep quality (fairly/very bad) and duration (short/long sleep) in 2005-2006 by optimism in 2000-2001 (participants with poor sleep quality and duration in 2000-2001 were excluded). Results: Among 3,549 participants (56% female, 46% Black) with complete data on optimism in 2000-2001, 15.9% reported fairly/very bad sleep quality. Sleep duration was distributed as follows: short-sleep (47.9%), sufficient sleep (31.6%), and long-sleep (20.5%). In unadjusted and fully adjusted models, a 1-unit higher optimism score was cross-sectionally associated with 11% lower odds of having fairly/very bad sleep quality and 3-5% lower odds of having short-sleep duration (Table 1). Cross-sectional associations were attenuated after adjustment for depressive symptoms (not shown). Incidence of poor sleep quality in 2005-2006 was 7% lower with each unit higher optimism score, after full adjustment. Conclusion: Optimism is associated with lower incidence of poor self-reported sleep quality over a 5-year period.

Poor sleep quality and frailty are common problems among aged people. However, the association between sleep quality and frailty in middle-aged and older people is seldom discussed in Asia, especially in Taiwan. This study investigated this association hopefully to provide pertinent knowledge for the prevention of frailty. We conducted a cross-sectional study and enrolled 828 subjects, 237 male and 591 female, aged 50–85 years old, from a community in Northern Taiwan. Poor sleep quality was defined as the Chinese version of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (CPSQI) > 5. Prefrailty and frailty were defined as fulfillment of one or two and three, respectively, of five phenotypic criteria: exhaustion, weakness, slowness, weight loss, and low physical activity. Our univariate analysis showed that the incidence of prefrailty/frailty in the group of poor sleep quality was higher than that in the group of CPSQI ≤ 5 (p < 0.001). Further multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that poor sleep quality was an independent factor for prefrailty and frailty status (odds ratio = 1.95, 95% confidence interval = 1.38–2.77), after adjustment for confounding factors. We concluded that poor sleep quality is independently associated with prefrailty and frailty status in our study population.

AbstractThe association between sleep conditions and arterial stiffness remains inconclusive. We aimed to investigate the relationship of sleep duration and quality with brachial-ankle pulse-wave velocity (baPWV) in hypertensive patients. A total of 14,485 hypertensive adults were included in this cross-sectional analysis. Information about sleep duration and quality was obtained via questionnaire. A baPWV level ≥1800 cm/s was defined as indicative of arterial stiffness. Compared with participants with a sleep duration <8 h per day, participants with a sleep duration ≥8 h per day had a significantly higher baPWV level (β = 13.7 cm/s; 95% CI: 3.9, 23.5) and a nonsignificantly higher prevalence of arterial stiffness (39.7% vs. 33.0%; OR, 1.08; 95% CI: 0.99–1.19). Similarly, compared with participants with good or medium sleep quality, participants with poor sleep quality had a significantly higher baPWV level (β = 16.3 cm/s; 95% CI: 0.1, 32.6) and a nonsignificantly greater prevalence of arterial stiffness (36.6% vs. 35.3%; OR, 1.13; 95% CI: 0.97–1.32). When sleep duration and quality were examined jointly, participants with a sleep duration ≥8 h and/or poor sleep quality had a significantly higher baPWV level (β = 14.4 cm/s; 95% CI: 5.3, 23.4) and a greater prevalence of arterial stiffness (38.8% vs. 32.7%; OR, 1.10; 95% CI: 1.01–1.20) than those with a sleep duration <8 h and good/medium sleep quality. In summary, among hypertensive patients, a longer sleep duration (≥8 h per day) and poor sleep quality were associated with higher baPWV levels and a higher prevalence of arterial stiffness.

ObjectiveThis study examined the relationship between sleep duration, sleep quality and food consumption among adolescents.DesignCross-sectional study.SettingData from the 2014 and 2015 Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey were used.ParticipantsParticipants aged 12–18 years (n=118 462 (59 431 males and 59 031 females)) were selected.Primary and secondary outcome measuresSleep duration, sleep quality and the frequencies of fruits, soda, soft drinks, fast food, instant noodle, confectionaries, vegetables and milk consumption.ResultsShort sleep durations (<6 hours) were associated with higher soft drinks and confectionaries intake than longer sleep durations (9+ hours) (adjusted ORs (AORs) (95% CIs) for ≥5 times a week for soft drinks: 1.73 (1.57 to 1.91) and confectionaries: 1.32 (1.20 to 1.46); p<0.001). Poor sleep quality, with 7–8 hours of sleep, was associated with a lower intake of fruits, vegetables and milk (AORs (95% CIs) for ≥5 times a week for fruits: 0.71 (0.65 to 0.77); vegetables: 0.66 (0.58 to 0.75); and milk: 0.80 (0.74 to 0.86); each p<0.001), and higher intake of soda, soft drinks, fast food, instant noodle and confectionaries (AORs (95% CIs) for ≥5 times a week for soda: 1.55 (1.40 to 1.70); soft drinks: 1.58 (1.43 to 1.73); fast food: 1.97 (1.65 to 2.35); instant noodle: 1.55 (1.37 to 1.76); and confectionaries: 1.30 (1.18 to 1.43); each p<0.001) than good sleep quality of the same duration.ConclusionShort sleep durations and poor sleep quality might be associated with higher consumption of unhealthier foods, such as sugar-sweetened beverages, fast food, instant noodle and confectionaries, and associated with lower consumption of fruits, vegetables and milk.
