- Unhealthy sleep duration, either short or long, is associated with worse health and central subjective dimensions of sleep and health such as fatigue. It has been argued that the link between sleep duration and health may depend on the quality of the slept hours, and on its functional impact (ie, fatigue). The present study therefore assessed whether the relationship between last night's sleep duration and general self-rated health (SRH) differs as a function of sleep quality, and secondly, whether current fatigue and sleep quality are factors linking sleep duration and SRH. The present cross-sectional dataset involved 1304 individuals (57% female, M age = 28.8, range 18-79). Participants completed surveys for general SRH, previous night's sleep duration and sleep quality, and current fatigue. Results showed the expected inverted U-shaped (ie, quadratic) relation between last night's sleep duration and SRH and a linear relation between last night's sleep quality and SRH. However, long sleep duration was only associated with poorer SRH in individuals who also reported poor sleep quality. Further, the quadratic relationship between sleep duration and SRH was partially mediated by fatigue and sleep quality. The results of this multi-study analysis suggest that SRH is particularly poor in those who slept both long and with poor quality the night before, while good sleep quality may protect those with a long sleep duration from poor SRH. Thus, last night's long sleep does not seem to be associated with poor subjective health unless it is coupled with poor sleep quality. Furthermore, fatigue and sleep quality are potential pathways linking short and long sleep duration with SRH. Different dimensions of sleep interact in their association with health, and future research will benefit from an integrative approach.

- Background: Increased leptin and decreased adiponectin levels are reported in coronary artery disease (CAD) as well as in obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Less is known regarding the impact of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on these biomarkers. We aimed to determine variables associated with leptin and adiponectin in adults with CAD and nonsleepy OSA, and evaluate the effect of CPAP adjusted for confounding factors. Methods: This was one of the secondary outcomes of the RICCADSA trial, conducted in Sweden between 2005 and 2013. From 244 revascularized CAD and OSA patients (apnoeaehypopnoea index > 15/h) without excessive daytime sleepiness (Epworth Sleepiness Scale score <10), 196 with blood samples at baseline, after 3, and 12 months were included in the randomized controlled trial arm; of those, 98 were allocated to auto-titrating CPAP, and 98 to no-CPAP. Results: No significant changes in leptin and adiponectin levels were observed during follow-up, whereas Body-Mass-Index and waist circumference increased in both CPAP and no-CPAP groups with no significant between-group differences. Alterations in plasma leptin were determined by changes in waist circumference (beta coefficient 2.47; 95% confidence interval 0.77-4.40), whereas none of the analyzed parameters was predictive for changes in adiponectin levels. No association was found with CPAP adherence. Conclusions: CPAP had no significant effect on leptin and adiponectin in this cohort of nonsleepy OSA patients. An increase in waist circumference predicted an increase in plasma levels of leptin after 12 months, suggesting that lifestyle modifications should be given priority in adults with CAD and OSA regardless of CPAP treatment.

- Background: Anxiety and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) coexist among adults with coronary artery disease (CAD) following revascularization. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the first line treatment of OSA patients with daytime sleepiness. The current study evaluated the effect of CPAP on anxiety in CAD patients with nonsleepy OSA. Methods: Two hundred forty-four revascularized CAD patients with nonsleepy OSA (apnea-hypopnea index ≥15/h, Epworth Sleepiness Scale score <10) were randomly assigned to CPAP or no-CPAP between 2005 and 2010. Zung Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) was administered at baseline and after 3 and 12 months with higher scores suggesting more anxiety. Results: A total of 208 patients with complete SAS scores at baseline and 12-month follow-up were included (CPAP, n = 103; no-CPAP, n = 105). In the intention-to-treat analysis, CPAP had no significant effect on the SAS scores. On-treatment analysis revealed a significant increase in the median of delta SAS score (+3.75) after three months among the participants using the device 2.8 h/day or more while there was a decline in the median of delta SAS score (−1.25) in the non-adherent or no-CPAP group (p = 0.031). The increase in the SAS score (+1.25) in the adherent group, and the decline (−1.25 points) in the non-adherent/no-CPAP group remained significant after one year (p = 0.011). Baseline SAS score predicted non-adherence [adjusted odds ratio 1.11; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.04–1.18; p = 0.003], and there was an association between the increase in the SAS scores and accumulated CPAP hours/day [standardized β = 0.144 (95% CI 0.005–0.695), p = 0.047]. Conclusion: Our results suggest that anxiety should be considered in the management of CAD patients with nonsleepy OSA following revascularization. Clinical trial registration: NCT00519597.

- OBJECTIVE: There is evidence of a strong association between insomnia and COVID-19, yet few studies have examined the relationship between insomnia and long COVID. This study aimed to investigate whether COVID-19 patients with pre-pandemic insomnia have a greater risk of developing long COVID and whether long COVID is in turn associated with higher incident rates of insomnia symptoms after infection.METHODS: Data were collected cross-sectionally (May-Dec 2021) as part of an international collaborative study involving participants from 16 countries. A total of 2311 participants (18-99 years old) with COVID-19 provided valid responses to a web-based survey about sleep, insomnia, and health-related variables. Log-binomial regression was used to assess bidirectional associations between insomnia and long COVID. Analyses were adjusted for age, sex, and health conditions, including sleep apnea, attention and memory problems, chronic fatigue, depression, and anxiety.RESULTS: COVID-19 patients with pre-pandemic insomnia showed a higher risk of developing long COVID than those without pre-pandemic insomnia (70.8% vs 51.4%; adjusted relative risk [RR]: 1.33, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.07-1.65). Among COVID-19 cases without pre-pandemic insomnia, the rates of incident insomnia symptoms after infection were 24.1% for short COVID cases and 60.6% for long COVID cases (p < .001). Compared with short COVID cases, long COVID cases were associated with an increased risk of developing insomnia symptoms (adjusted RR: 2.00; 95% CI: 1.50-2.66).CONCLUSIONS: The findings support a bidirectional relationship between insomnia and long COVID. These findings highlight the importance of addressing sleep and insomnia in the prevention and management of long COVID.

- Objective: In 2010, a questionnaire-based study on obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) management in Europe identified differences regarding reimbursement, sleep specialist qualification, and titration procedures. Now, 10 years later, a follow-up study was conducted as part of the ESADA (European Sleep Apnea Database) network to explore the development of OSA management over time.Methods: The 2010 questionnaire including questions on sleep diagnostic, reimbursement, treatment, and certification was updated with questions on telemedicine and distributed to European Sleep Centers to reflect European OSA management practice.Results: 26 countries (36 sleep centers) participated, representing 20 ESADA and 6 non-ESADA countries. All 21 countries from the 2010 survey participated. In 2010, OSA diagnostic procedures were performed mainly by specialized physicians (86%), whereas now mainly by certified sleep specialists and specialized physicians (69%). Treatment and titration procedures are currently quite homogenous, with a strong trend towards more Autotitrating Positive Airway Pressure treatment (in hospital 73%, at home 62%). From 2010 to 2020, home sleep apnea testing use increased (76%-89%) and polysomnography as sole diagnostic procedure decreased (24%-12%). Availability of a sleep specialist qualification increased (52%-65%) as well as the number of certified polysomnography scorers (certified physicians: 36%-79%; certified technicians: 20%-62%). Telemedicine, not surveyed in 2010, is now in 2020 used in diagnostics (8%), treatment (50%), and follow-up (73%). Conclusion: In the past decade, formal qualification of sleep center personnel increased, OSA diagnostic and treatment procedures shifted towards a more automatic approach, and telemedicine became more prominent.(c) 2022 The Authors.

- OBJECTIVE: To increase our understanding of patterns of change in physical activity and sleep complaints and to test whether intra-individual changes in physical activity are correlated with intra-individual changes in sleep complaints across four measurement time-points over six years, adopting both a between-person and within-person perspective.METHODS: Data from a longitudinal cohort study were used in this research. At baseline, 3187 participants took part in the study (86% women, Mage = 46.9 years). The response rate was 84% (n = 3136) after two years, 60% (n = 2232) after four years, and 40% (n = 1498) after six years. Physical activity was assessed with the [51] widely used 4-level physical activity scale (SGPALS), and sleep complaints with three items from the Karolinska Sleep Questionnaire (KSQ). Patterns and correlations of change between physical activity and sleep complaints were examined with latent growth curve modeling.RESULTS: Changes in physical activity were associated with changes in sleep complaints across the six years. More specifically, significant associations occurred between baseline levels, correlated (between-person) change, and coupled (within-person change). These associations indicate that higher physical activity levels are not only cross-sectionally linked with fewer sleep complaints, but that increases in physical activity over time (either in comparison to others or to oneself) are paralleled by decreases in sleep complaints.CONCLUSIONS: Given that changes in physical activity and sleep are correlated, our findings indicate that it is worthwhile to initiate more physically active lifestyles in physically inactive individuals; and to ensure that those who are already physically active maintain their physical activity levels over longer periods.
