Abstract
Importance Wrist-worn activity monitors provide biomarkers of health by non-obtrusively measuring the timing and amount of rest and physical activity (rest-activity rhythms, RARs). The morphology and robustness of RARs vary by age, gender, and sociodemographic factors, and are perturbed in various chronic illnesses. However, these are cross-sectionally derived associations from recordings lasting 4-10 days, providing little insights into how RARs vary with time. Objective To describe how RAR parameters can vary or evolve with time (~months). Design Setting and Participants 48 very long actograms ("VLAs", ≥90 days in duration) were identified from subjects enrolled in the STAGES (Stanford Technology, Analytics and Genomics in Sleep) study, a prospective cross-sectional, multi-site assessment of individuals > 13 years of age that required diagnostic polysomnography to address a sleep complaint. A single 3-year long VLA (author GD) is also described. Exposures/Intervention None planned. Main Outcomes and Measures For each VLA, we assessed the following parameters in 14-day windows: circadian/ultradian spectrum, pseudo-F statistic ("F"), cosinor amplitude, intradaily variability, interdaily stability, acrophase and estimates of "sleep" and non-wearing. Results Included STAGES subjects (n = 48, 30 female) had a median age of 51, BMI of 29.4kg/m2, Epworth Sleepiness Scale score (ESS) of 10/24 and a median recording duration of 120 days. We observed marked within-subject undulations in all six RAR parameters, with many subjects displaying ultradian rhythms of activity that waxed and waned in intensity. When appraised at the group level (nomothetic), averaged RAR parameters remained remarkably stable over a ~4 month recording period. Cohort-level deficits in average RAR robustness associated with unemployment or high BMI (>29.4) also remained stable over time. Conclusions and Relevance Through an exemplary set of months-long wrist actigraphy recordings, this study quantitatively depicts the longitudinal stability and dynamic range of human rest-activity rhythms. We propose that continuous and long-term actigraphy may have broad potential as a holistic, transdiagnostic and ecologically valid monitoring biomarker of changes in chronobiological health. Prospective recordings from willing subjects will be necessary to precisely define contexts of use.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder in children. AD worsens at night, particularly in severe disease. Low light exposure contributes to inflammation, poor sleep, and misalignment between circadian (24-hour) rhythms (biological clocks) and social clocks (weekday vs. weekend sleep timing), but has not been evaluated in AD. Our objective was to perform a cross-sectional study to determine whether there is an association between AD severity, recorded light exposure (RLE), and sleep measures in participants with AD and healthy controls. METHODS Secondary data analysis from two prospective observational studies of 74 participants ages 5-17 years old with severe AD compared to others (healthy controls and mild/moderate AD). Participants wore actigraphy watches for at least 1 weekday and one weekend. Rest/activity and RLE (lux) were obtained from the watches and were analyzed to estimate duration and quality of sleep/light exposure. RESULTS Participants (n = 74) were on average 10.9 ± 3.6 years old, with 45% female, 17% no AD, 27% mild, 32% moderate, and 24% severe AD. On weekends, severe AD participants versus others fell asleep at a similar time (23:52 ± 1:08 vs. 23:40 ± 1:29 mean clock-time hours ± SD; p = 0.23), had similar sleep-onset latency (8.2 ± 8.7 vs. 12.7 ± 16.9 minutes; p = 0.28), but woke later (09:12 ± 1:04 vs. 08:13 ± 1:14 minutes; p < 0.01) resulting in a later sleep-midpoint (04:32 ± 0:53 vs. 03:49 ± 1:08 minutes; p = 0.02). Severe AD participants had lower levels of daytime RLE than others (mean-over-all-days: 1948.4 ± 2130.0 vs. 10341.3 ± 13453.8 lux; p = 0.01) and throughout seasons, weekdays, or weekend, yet had similar nighttime RLE. CONCLUSION Severe AD is characterized by low RLE and sleep disturbance. Low RLE could potentially induce circadian misalignment, contributing to inflammation and worse disease in severe AD. Low RLE can also reflect altered lifestyle and behavior due to atopic disease impacts. Prospective studies are needed to test causality and the potential of bright light as an adjuvant therapy for severe AD.

Dermatol Ther (Heidelb) 2023; 13:951-960. [PMID: 36811773 DOI: 10.1007/s13555-023-00899-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2022] [Accepted: 01/31/2023] [Indexed: 02/24/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Using data from three clinical trials, the effect of crisaborole treatment on sleep outcomes for pediatric patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) and their families was examined. METHODS This analysis comprised patients aged 2 to < 16 years from the double-blind phase 3 CrisADe CORE 1 (NCT02118766) and CORE 2 (NCT02118792) studies, families of patients aged 2 to < 18 years from CORE 1 and CORE 2, and patients aged 3 months to < 2 years from the open-label phase 4 CrisADe CARE 1 study (NCT03356977), all with mild-to-moderate AD who received crisaborole ointment 2% twice daily for 28 days. Sleep outcomes were assessed via the Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index and Dermatitis Family Impact questionnaires in CORE 1 and CORE 2 and the Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure questionnaire in CARE 1. RESULTS In CORE 1 and CORE 2, a significantly lower proportion of crisaborole-treated patients than vehicle-treated patients reported sleep disruption at day 29 (48.5% versus 57.7%, p = 0.001). The proportion of families whose sleep was affected by their child's AD in the preceding week was also significantly lower in the crisaborole group (35.8% versus 43.1%, p = 0.02) at day 29. At day 29 in CARE 1, the proportion of crisaborole-treated patients who experienced ≥ 1 night of disturbed sleep in the previous week decreased by 32.1% from baseline. CONCLUSION These results suggest that crisaborole improves sleep outcomes in pediatric patients with mild-to-moderate AD and their families.

Abstract
AIM This study examined the feasibility of integrating actigraphy devices into orthopaedic surgical settings to assess the concurrent validity between objective actigraphy data and PROMIS measures. Additionally, the association between changes in actigraphy data and longitudinal changes in PROMIS measures was examined. METHODS Data were collected from 17 participants using actigraphy devices the week prior to and after orthopaedic surgery from 02/2019 to 03/2020. Participants completed PROMIS measures (Physical Function, Sleep Disturbance, Pain Interference) preoperatively and up to 6 months postoperatively. Nonparametric correlations (rs ) assessed for concurrent validity. Linear mixed-effects models examined the association between changes in actigraphy data and PROMIS measures. RESULTS Prolonged wake after sleep onset was associated with increased sleep disturbances (rs = 0.49; p = 0.045) and pain interference (rs = 0.51; p = 0.04). Changes in pain interference were correlated with increased awakenings (rs = 0.54; p = 0.03). Increased wake after sleep onset was associated with worsening sleep disturbance (β = 0.12; p = 0.01) and pain interference scores over the postoperative period (β = 0.12; p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS This study is among the first to examine changes in objective actigraphy data and longitudinal PROMIS measures following orthopaedic surgery and illustrates the feasibility of incorporating actigraphy into surgical settings to evaluate postoperative recovery.

Differences in Psychometric Properties of Clinician- and Patient-Reported Outcome Measures for Atopic Dermatitis by Race and Skin Tone: A Systematic Review. J Invest Dermatol 2022; 142:364-381. [PMID: 34352262 PMCID: PMC8792149 DOI: 10.1016/j.jid.2021.06.033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2021] [Revised: 06/22/2021] [Accepted: 06/28/2021] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
The psychometric validity and reliability of widely used atopic dermatitis (AD) outcome measures across different races and ethnicities are unclear. We describe the rates of reporting race, ethnicity, and skin tone in studies testing the psychometric properties of AD outcome measures and compare the psychometric analyses across race, ethnicity, and skin tone. We systematically reviewed MEDLINE and EMBASE for studies reporting psychometric properties of clinician-reported or patient-reported outcome measures in AD (International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews: CRD42021239614). Overall, 16,100 nonduplicate articles were screened; 165 met inclusion criteria. Race and/or ethnicity were reported in 55 (33.3%) studies; of those, race was assessed by self-report in 10 studies (6.1%) or was unspecified in 45 (27.3%). A total of 16 studies (9.7%) evaluated psychometric property differences by race, and only five (4.4%) of those did not recognize it as a limitation. Properties assessed across race, ethnicity, or skin tone were differential item functioning, convergent validity feasibility, inter-rater reliability, intrarater reliability, test‒retest reliability, and known-groups validity. Multiple instruments demonstrated performance differences across ethnoracial groups. This review highlights the paucity of race/ethnicity consideration for psychometric property testing in AD outcome measurement instruments. More AD outcomes instruments should be validated in diverse populations.

Sleep Disturbance in School-Aged Children with Atopic Dermatitis: Prevalence and Severity in a Cross-Sectional Sample. THE JOURNAL OF ALLERGY AND CLINICAL IMMUNOLOGY-IN PRACTICE 2021; 9:3120-3129.e3. [PMID: 33991704 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaip.2021.04.064] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2021] [Revised: 04/16/2021] [Accepted: 04/21/2021] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Atopic dermatitis (AD) causes sleep disturbance but the epidemiology is not known. OBJECTIVE To estimate the US prevalence of sleep disturbance and its impact on psychological and neurocognitive function. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional survey of 180 parent-child dyads with AD using stratified sampling based on disease severity (Patient Oriented Eczema Measure: mild [n = 30), moderate (n = 75) or severe (n = 75]), age, and race (White or Black or African American or other). Symptoms of sleep and psychologic health were assessed using the Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System. To estimate the prevalence of sleep disturbance, we calculated weights using poststratification adjustment making marginal frequencies of AD severity, race, and age similar to marginal frequencies in the 2007 National Survey of Children's Health. Unweighted regression models examined associations with sleep disturbance. RESULTS In children age 5 to 17 years with AD, we estimated that sleep disturbance occurred in 66.9% (95% confidence interval, 53.3% to 80.5%; 3,116,305 children). The odds of severe sleep disturbance (worse than 95% of US children) were highest in moderate to severe versus mild AD (2.03 [1.00-4.10]; P = .0495; compared with 8.68 [1.82-41.49]; P = .0068). Predictors of parent proxy-reported sleep disturbance were itch intensity (adjusted β [95% confidence interval] 1.33 [0.62-2.04]) and low income (<$50,000: 6.64 [2.05-11.23]; and $50,000 to less than 100,000: 4.75 [0.35-9.14]). Controlling for disease severity, itch intensity, and significant sociodemographics-parent-proxy, reported sleep disturbance was associated with increased severity of sleep-related impairment, depression, fatigue, and anxiety, in addition to worse inattention and impulsivity. In fully adjusted models, children who self-reported sleep disturbance (T-score ≥60) had increased odds of sleep-related impairment (1.20 [1.11-1.29]), depression (1.13 [1.03, 1.24]), fatigue (1.28 [1.06-1.54]), and anxiety (1.16 [1.02-1.31]). CONCLUSIONS Sleep disturbance is a common symptom of AD. It affects about 3 million US children and is associated with neuropsychiatric impairment, including depression, anxiety, and inattention. Clinicians should screen for these symptoms in school-aged children, particularly those with moderate to severe AD.

Abstract
Purpose of the Review Skin disease is associated with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) both epidemiologically and mechanistically. In this review we highlight conditions which have a well-established link to obstructive sleep apnea, such as psoriasis and atopic dermatitis. Recent findings We describe putative mechanistic links between OSA and skin disease involving inflammatory pathways, obesity, mechanical upper airways obstruction, and hypoxia. In the context of these mechanisms we describe specific skin conditions, and other conditions which are associated with both skin manifestations (including hair/nail findings) and OSA. The risks/ benefits of CPAP in the context of skin disease are also reviewed. Summary We conclude that further research is needed to understand the mechanisms behind the associations between OSA and skin disease. Given the frequent co-occurrence of OSA and skin conditions, there would be great benefit for OSA clinical trials to consider improvement in skin disease as an outcome measure.
