El sueño y la actividad física (AF) son hábitos fundamentales para la salud durante la adolescencia ya que favorecen un óptimo desarrollo físico, cognitivo y emocional. El objetivo del estudio fue analizar la influencia del desarrollo madurativo sobre la calidad del sueño en niñas adolescentes, así como los niveles AF diaria según su nivel de desarrollo. Se evaluó el nivel de desarrollo madurativo de 129 chicas participantes del proyecto DADOS a través de la escala de Tanner. Se dividió al grupo en dos según su nivel de desarrollo madurativo (Tanner <4; Tanner ≥4). La calidad del sueño fue evaluada mediante la versión española del cuestionario Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) y se crearon los grupos óptima (PSQI ≤5) y mala (PSQI >5) calidad del sueño. Se evaluó la AF mediante acelerometría triaxial. El índice de masa corporal (IMC, kg/m2) se incluyó como covariable. No se encontraron diferencias en la puntuación total del PSQI en función del desarrollo madurativo (p >.05). Las adolescentes con mayor nivel de desarrollo mostraron menor AF diaria (p <.05). El porcentaje de chicas que presentaba óptima/mala calidad del sueño fue similar entre los grupos de desarrollo madurativo (p >.05). Las chicas con nivel de desarrollo madurativo superior (Tanner ≥4) no mostraron mayor riesgo de tener mala calidad del sueño (OR=1.08, 95%CI 0.51–2.34), teniendo en cuenta su IMC y AF diaria. En conclusión, el nivel de desarrollo madurativo de las adolescentes no parece estar relacionado con la calidad del sueño pero sí con la AF. Abstract: Sleep and physical activity (PA) are fundamental behaviors for adolescents’ health since they are related to optimal physical, cognitive, and emotional development. The aim of our study was to analyze the influence of the maturational development on sleep quality in adolescent girls, as well as to evaluate the daily PA level based on the level of maturational development. The level of maturational development of 129 girls participating in the DADOS project was assessed through the Tanner scale. Two groups were created (Tanner <4 and Tanner ≥4). Sleep quality was assessed using the Spanish version of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), based on which the following groups were created: optimal (PSQI ≤5) and poor (PSQI >5) sleep quality. PA was measured with triaxial accelerometers. Body mass index (BMI, kg/m2) was included in the study as a covariable. No significant differences were found in the total PSQI score between the maturational development groups (p >.05). Adolescents with higher maturational development performed less PA (p <.05). The percentage of girls who presented optimal/poor sleep quality was similar between the two maturational development groups (p >.05). Girls with higher maturational development (Tanner ≥4) did not show increased risk of poor sleep quality (OR=1.08, 95%CI 0.51-2.34), considering their BMI and daily PA. In conclusion, the maturational development of adolescent girls does not seem to be related with sleep quality but it influences the PA levels.

AbstractSleep problems and regular leisure time physical activity (LTPA) are interrelated and have contrasting effects on risk of back pain. However, no studies have investigated the influence of long-term poor sleep quality on risk of back-related disability, or if LTPA modifies this association. The study comprised data on 8601 people who participated in three consecutive surveys over ~ 22 years, and who reported no chronic back pain at the two first surveys. Adjusted risk ratios (RRs) for back-related disability were calculated at the last survey, associated with the joint effect of changes in sleep quality between the two first surveys and meeting physical activity guidelines at the second survey. Compared to people with long-term good sleep, people with long-term poor sleep had nearly twice the risk of back-related disability (RR 1.92, 95% CI 1.48–2.49). There was no statistical interaction between sleep and LTPA but people who reported long-term poor sleep and meeting the physical activity guidelines had 35% lower risk of back-related disability compared to people with same level of sleep problems, but who not met the guidelines. These findings suggest that long-term poor sleep quality contributes to a substantially increased risk of chronic and disabling back pain irrespective of LTPA.

Poor sleep quality is extremely prevalent, with about one third of adults in the USA obtaining less than the recommended amount of sleep. In addition, poor sleep quality has been linked to an increased risk of many conditions, including diabetes, hypertension, psychiatric conditions, and overall all-cause mortality. Research has shown that sleep disturbance does impact skin disease, although many details of this relationship are still unclear. The goal of this study is to determine if there is a relationship between acne severity and sleep quality in adults. Forty subjects with acne were recruited from dermatology clinics in Cleveland, OH, to participate in this study. Acne severity was assessed using the Global Acne Grading Scale (GAGS). To assess sleep quality, subjects completed the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and completed a seven-day sleep journal. Subjects also completed the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), the Patient Health Questionnaire-2 (PHQ-2), and provided information about current and past acne treatments as well as their opinion regarding their own acne severity and exacerbating factors. Our findings support the hypothesis that there is a potential relationship between sleep quality and acne.

ABSTRACT Objectives: to analyze the factors associated with poor sleep quality, its characteristics and components in women with breast cancer prior to surgery for removing the tumor and throughout the follow-up. Method: longitudinal study in a teaching hospital, with a sample of 102 women. The following were used: a questionnaire for sociodemographic and clinical characterization, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index; the Beck Depression Inventory; and the Herth Hope Scale. Data collection covered from prior to the surgery for removal of the tumor (T0) to T1, on average 3.2 months; T2, on average 6.1 months; and T3, on average 12.4 months. Descriptive statistics and the Generalized Estimating Equations model were used. Results: depression and pain contributed to the increase in the score of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, and hope, to the reduction of the score - independently - throughout follow-up. Sleep disturbances were the component with the highest score throughout follow-up. Conclusion: the presence of depression and pain, prior to the surgery, contributed to the increase in the global score of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, which indicates worse quality of sleep throughout follow-up; greater hope, in its turn, influenced the reduction of the score of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index.

Objective: To determine the frequency of poor sleep quality among the patients of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and analyze its relationship with the socio-demographic factors.Study Design: Correlational study. Place and Duration of Study: Pak Emirates Military Hospital Rawalpindi, from Jan 2019 to Jun 2019. Methodology: One hundred and fifty patients of Parkinson’s disease were approached to participate in this study. Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) was the psychometric tool used to assess the study parameter for the patients. Age, gender, duration of illness, poly pharmacy and tobacco smoking were corelated with presence of poor quality of sleep among the patients of Parkinson’s disease. Results: Out of 150 patients of Parkinson’s disease screened through Pittsburgh sleep quality index, 85 (56.7%)showed the presence of poor sleep quality while 65 (43.3%) had good sleep quality. Mean age of the patients was 66.2 ± 4.648 years. After applying the logistic regression, we found that increasing age and longer duration of illness had significant association with the presence of poor sleep quality among the patients of Parkinson disease. Conclusion: Previously considered a pure motor disorder, Parkinsonism has a lot of other neuro-psychiatricmanifestations as well. Poor sleep quality turned out to be one of these non-motor problems associated with this chronic debilitating illness. Increasing age and longer duration of illness among these patients emerged asindependent risk factors for poor sleep quality in Parkinsonism.

Abstract This article aims to evaluate the sleep quality in individuals during the COVID-19 pandemic by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Searches were conducted in the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and PEDro databases, on May 22, 2020. In the publications, 208 articles were found and, considering the eligibility criteria, 10 articles were included at the end, showing the effects on sleep quality during the pandemic, in populations hospitalized, quarantined, and in frontline health professionals. The PSQI measured sleep disorders and a higher score indicated poor sleep quality. Nine articles were classified with evidence level IV and one as level III-2. Eight studies present a “serious” risk of bias and two in “moderate”. The studies investigated different populations and described the results as “poor” sleep quality, considering the PSQI on quarantined individuals and frontline health professionals as the most committed. A poor sleep quality was found in the populations evaluated in the selected publications, probably, due to the COVID-19 to contribute as a risk factor for mental health. Psychological interventions must be made to minimize the consequences through social support and social capital.

This study investigated the relationship between sleep quality and fibromyalgia symptoms in 326 patients. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was used to assess the presence of sleep disorders. Multivariate analysis of variance was performed to determine the influence of fibromyalgia symptoms on sleep quality. The prevalence of sleep disorders was 92.9 percent. Patients reported generalized pain (88.3%), memory failure (78.5%), moodiness (59%), excessive anxiety (77.5%), and concentration difficulties (69.1%). Patients with more symptoms reported poor sleep quality ( p < .05; d = .74), and the total Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score correlated with the number of symptoms ( p < .01). Sleep quality has an important association with fibromyalgia symptoms.

Background Perceived fatigue and fatigability are constructs of multiple sclerosis (MS)-related fatigue. Sleep disturbances lead to poor sleep quality, which has been found to be associated with perceived fatigue in people with MS (PwMS). However, the relationship between fatigability and sleep quality is unknown. Objective To explore the relationship between physical and cognitive fatigability with self-reported and objective measures of sleep quality in PwMS. Methods Fifty-one ambulatory PwMS participated in the study. Physical fatigability was measured by percent-change in meters walked on the six-minute walk test (6MWT) and in force exerted on a repeated maximal hand grip test. Cognitive fatigability was measured using response speed variability on the continuous performance test. Self-report sleep quality was measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, and objective sleep quality was measured using 1 week of actigraphy. Results Components of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and several actigraph parameters were significantly associated with physical fatigability and cognitive fatigability. However, controlling for depression eliminated the association between the sleep outcomes and cognitive fatigability and attenuated the association between the sleep outcomes and physical fatigability. Conclusion Poor sleep quality is related to fatigability in MS but depression appears to mediate these relationships.

Objectives: This study sought to determine the quality of sleep using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), the presence of sleepiness using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) and the association between sleep quality and sleepiness in basketball players in Bermuda. Methods: Once ethical approval was granted, players were recruited from the Bermuda Basketball Association League. All participants completed the PSQI and the ESS questionnaires based on their recollection of events as they occurred over the previous 30 days. Their responses were analysed using the IBM SPSS version 19 for Windows. Results: A total of 71 subjects, mean age 24.96 ± 3.19 years, participated in this study. The mean PSQI score was 7.8 ± 4.7 (scores of 5 or more indicate poor sleep quality). Thirty percent of players rated their sleep quality as fairly bad to very bad. The mean sleepiness score was 7.35 ± 4.17 and over 60% of persons surveyed had more than normal levels of sleepiness. There was a significant correlation between sleep quality and sleepiness; 0.61 (p < 0.01), as well as a correlation between age and Global PSQI which had a score of 0.31 (p < 0.01). Conclusion: Basketball players in Bermuda are experiencing less than optimal sleep. Insomnia was among the most popular self-reported cause of sleep disturbances. Further research is required in this population, exploring causal factors for poor sleep quality. Key words: Athletes, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Epworth Sleepiness Scale, Sleep Quality.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of pain caused by orthodontic fixed appliances on sleep quality of participants using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Materials and Methods: A previously validated Arabic version of PSQI was electronically distributed through different social media platforms and in waiting areas of orthodontic offices. Eligibility criteria included healthy adults and adolescents with orthodontic fixed appliances and with no systemic conditions that may affect sleep. The cut-off point used to determine poor sleep quality was (>5). Results: Three hundred and eighteen participants were included in the final analysis (28.9% males and 71.1% females). Both males and females with orthodontic fixed appliances had poor sleep quality with (Mean = 6.48, SD = 2.85, P = 0.000) for males, and (Mean = 7.18, SD = 2.87, P = 0.000) for females. Comparing males and females, we found that females scored higher than males in both subjective sleep quality and PSQI global score. Conclusion: Individuals undergoing orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances have poor sleep quality. Females undergoing orthodontic treatment tend to have poorer sleep quality compared to males.
