Abstract
Introduction Fatigue, brain fog, and sleep disturbance are among the most common symptoms of postacute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC). We sought to determine the impact of sleep disruption on cognition and quality of life in patients with neurologic manifestations of PASC (Neuro-PASC). Methods Thirty-nine patients were recruited from Neuro-COVID-19 clinic. Mean age was 48.1 years, 71.8% were female, and 82% were never hospitalized for COVID-19. Patients were evaluated via clinical assessment, quality-of-life measures in domains of cognitive function, fatigue, sleep disturbance, anxiety, and depression, NIH Toolbox cognitive tests, and 7 days of wrist actigraphy. Results The median number of neurologic symptoms attributed to PASC was 6, with brain fog being the most common in 89.7%. Regarding non-neurologic symptoms, 94.9% complained of fatigue and 74.4% of insomnia. Patients reported significant impairment in all quality-of-life domains and performed worse in a task of attention compared to a normative US population. Actigraphy showed Neuro-PASC patients had lower sleep efficiency, longer sleep latency (both p < 0.001), and later sleep midpoint (p = 0.039) compared to 71 age-matched healthy controls with no PASC history. Self-reported cognitive symptoms correlated with the severity of fatigue (p < 0.001), anxiety (p = 0.05), and depression (p < 0.01). Objective evidence of sleep disruption measured by wakefulness after sleep onset, sleep efficiency, and latency were associated with decreased performance in attention and processing speed. Conclusion Prospective studies including larger populations of patients are needed to fully determine the interplay of sleep disruption on the cognitive function and quality of life of patients with PASC.

Sekizuka H, Miyake H. Overtime work is related to nonrestorative sleep independently of short sleep time among a Japanese occupational population. Int Arch Occup Environ Health 2024; 97:75-80. [PMID: 38047958 DOI: 10.1007/s00420-023-02027-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2023] [Accepted: 11/10/2023] [Indexed: 12/05/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The symptoms of insomnia are defined as difficulty falling asleep, difficulty staying asleep, and early awakening. Although also a symptom of insomnia, nonrestorative sleep (NRS) is clearly more associated with objective indices than other insomnia symptoms. However, the link between NRS and overtime work duration is poorly understood. METHODS The results of a single year's medical examinations were investigated for 26,144 Japanese office workers who were 30 to 59 years old. NRS status and lifestyle were collected through a computer-assisted medical interview. The subjects were asked about the presence or absence of NRS and their lifestyles in the most recent two to three months. The subjects were asked about their sleep times and average overtime durations per month (< 20 h/month, ≥ 20 but < 40 h/month, ≥ 40 but < 60 h/month, and ≥ 60 h/month). The relationships between NRS and overtime work duration adjusted for sleep time were also analyzed. RESULTS The proportion of subjects with NRS showed a stepwise increase as overtime work hours increased. A logistic regression analysis was performed using NRS as an objective variable. The multivariate analysis demonstrated that overtime work duration (OR, 1.13; 95% CI 1.10-1.17; P < 0.001; per one-category increase) was an independent determinant of NRS. CONCLUSION For office workers, long hours of overtime work increased the NRS prevalence at any sleep duration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a frequently observed and remarkably incapacitating disorder worldwide. As a multisystem disorder, OSA has been linked to a plethora of clinical parameters though physical parameters like muscle strength have been scantily studied. Hand grip strength (HGS) is a practical marker of physical function that has been associated with mortality and an array of clinical outcomes as well as physiological parameters like sleep duration. A few seminal studies have observed no link between HGS and OSA severity while no studies evaluated the relationship between objectively determined sleep duration and HGS in OSA. OBJECTIVE The present study aimed to evaluate the HGS indices among both OSA severity groups and objectively determined sleep duration groups in OSA. METHODS 111 treatment-naïve mostly middle-aged individuals with OSA (86 males) were recruited in a tertiary sleep center. Three OSA severity groups were determined by the Apnea-Hypopnea Index while three sleep duration groups were objectively determined by Total Sleep Time (TST). Dominant and non-dominant maximum and average HGS were calculated using a digital hand dynamometer. RESULTS Short-sleeper individuals with OSA were found to have lower HGS indices than intermediate or sufficient sleepers with OSA while no differences in HGS indices among OSA severity groups were observed. All HGS indices correlated with TST. CONCLUSIONS Future insights can be gleaned from the present results regarding the conceivably transdiagnostic relationship between sleep duration and HGS as well as the potential use of HGS as a marker in OSA.

[PMID: 38051532 PMCID: PMC10698624 DOI: 10.1001/jamanetworkopen.2023.46085] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2023] [Accepted: 10/23/2023] [Indexed: 12/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Importance The association between sleep duration and all-cause mortality remains unclear among people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Objective To explore whether there is an association between sleep duration and all-cause mortality among people with OSA. Design, Setting, and Participants This cohort study investigated participants with OSA from the Sleep Heart Health Study (SHHS) in which participants were enrolled between 1995 and 1998 with questionnaires and polysomnography (PSG) assessment and followed up for a median of 11.8 years. SHHS was a multicenter community-based study; 2574 participants with OSA defined by apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) greater than or equal to 15 from SHHS were found; all of them had all-cause mortality data and were included in the study. Data were analyzed from November 2022 to October 2023. Exposures Participants were divided into 4 groups with objective sleep duration of (1) at least 7 hours, (2) 6 to less than 7 hours, (3) 5 to less than 6 hours, and (4) less than 5 hours, which was determined by total sleep time on PSG at baseline. Main Outcomes and Measures All-cause mortality was defined as deaths from any cause and its risk was compared among 4 OSA groups using Cox regression models. Results A total of 2574 participants with OSA were included (1628 [63.2%] men and 946 [36.8%] women; mean [SD] age, 65.4 [10.7] years; 211 [8.2%] Black, 2230 [86.6%] White, 133 [5.2%] other race). Overall, 688 all-cause deaths were observed in participants. Compared with the group sleeping at least 7 hours, the groups sleeping 6 to less than 7 hours (hazard ratio [HR], 1.53 [95% CI, 1.13-2.07]), 5 to less than 6 hours (HR, 1.40 [95% CI, 1.03-1.90]), and less than 5 hours (HR, 1.64 [95% CI, 1.20-2.24]) had significantly higher risks of all-cause mortality independent of AHI. Sensitivity analyses were performed among participants with available data of positive airway pressure treatment during follow-up and the finding was mostly consistent, albeit the HR for the group of 5 to less than 6 hours was not statistically significant. Conclusions and Relevance In this cohort study of 2574 participants with OSA, those with shorter objective sleep duration had higher risk of all-cause mortality independent of AHI compared with those sleeping at least 7 hours. Further studies would be needed to investigate health benefits of extending sleep length among people with OSA with short sleep duration.

Abstract
Objective Nonrestorative sleep (NRS) is one of the symptoms of insomnia and is clearly more associated with objective indices, such as sleep stability, sleep fragmentation, and inflammatory responses, than other insomnia symptoms. However, the link between NRS and diabetes mellitus is poorly understood. Therefore, the prevalence of NRS in workers and the relationships between NRS and diabetes were investigated. Methods The results of a single year's medical examinations were investigated for 26,144 Japanese active office workers who were 30 to 59 years old. NRS was investigated using a personal computer in a medical interview. Furthermore, the relationships between NRS and diabetes comorbidity in addition to sleep duration were also analyzed. Results The mean age of the subjects was 47.9 ± 7.3 years old, and the proportion of subjects with NRS was 26%. The presence of NRS together with a sleep duration ≤ 5 h or a sleep duration of 6 h was an independent comorbid factor for diabetes compared with the absence of NRS together with a sleep duration of 7 h (odds ratio [OR] 1.34; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.14-1.58; P < 0.001; and OR 1.25; 95% CI 1.04-1.48; P = 0.015). Conclusion NRS in active workers may contribute to the development of diabetes even if the workers have the same short sleep durations as other workers without NRS.

The association between subjective-objective discrepancies in sleep duration and mortality in older men. Sci Rep 2022; 12:18650.

Abstract
A discrepancy in subjective and objective estimations of sleep duration, which often diverge, could have long-term adverse effects on health outcomes in older adults. Using data from 2674 older adult men (≥ 65 years of age) of the Osteoporotic Fractures in Men Sleep Study, we assessed the longitudinal association between misperception index (MI), calculated as MI = (objective sleep duration - subjective sleep duration)/objective sleep duration, and all-cause mortality. During the follow-up with a mean (standard deviation) of 10.8 (4.2) years, 1596 deaths were observed. As a continuous variable, MI showed a linear relationship with all-cause mortality after adjusting for multiple covariates, including polysomnography-measured objective sleep duration [fully adjusted hazard ratio (HR), 0.69; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.56-0.84]. As a categorical variable, the lowest MI quartile (vs. the interquartile MI range) was associated with increased mortality (fully adjusted HR, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.12-1.46), whereas the highest MI quartile was not associated with mortality (fully adjusted HR, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.85-1.11). The subjective overestimation of sleep duration may be a risk factor for all-cause mortality in older men. Future studies should examine why subjective overestimation of sleep duration is associated with all-cause mortality from a physiological perspective.
