Abstract
Sleep disorders are prevalent and debilitating symptoms in primary brain tumor patients, notably those receiving radiation therapy. Nevertheless, the relationship between sleep disorders, melatonin - a circadian rhythm regulatory hormone, and gliomas is underexplored. Melatonin exhibits various biological functions, one of them being anti-tumor activity. In the context of gliomas, often overexpressing EGFR, the humanized monoclonal antibody Nimotuzumab targets this marker. Our research discovered that variations in circadian rhythm significantly influence tumor growth in mice through impacting melatonin secretion. Harnessing proteogenomic, we identified that melatonin could inhibit the phosphorylation of EGFR and its downstream effectors, key elements in angiogenesis and tumor progression. Building on structural simulations, we propose that melatonin may amplify Nimotuzumab's anti-glioma efficacy by inhibiting EGFR TK dimerization. This proposition was validated in our in vitro and in vivo studies where melatonin synergistically augmented cytotoxicity and apoptosis in Nimotuzumab-treated glioma cells. Thus, melatonin shows promise as a beneficial addition to Nimotuzumab treatment in glioma patients.

Abstract
Sleep problems have become a significant public health concern, affecting a large portion of the global population and have been linked to increased morbidity and mortality. The incidence of gastrointestinal (GI) cancers continues to rise, posing a substantial burden on healthcare systems worldwide. This editorial aims to delve into the impact of sleep on GI cancers, including esophageal, gastric, colorectal, hepatobiliary, and pancreatic cancer. Recent literature investigating the potential connections between GI cancers and sleep was reviewed. We considered aspects such as sleep duration, sleep disorders, and circadian rhythmicity, in order to explore the underlying mechanisms that can contribute to the development of GI cancers and propose avenues for future research.

Sleep and liver function biomarkers in relation to risk of incident liver cancer: a nationwide prospective cohort study. BMC Med 2024; 22:261. [PMID: 38915009 PMCID: PMC11197319 DOI: 10.1186/s12916-024-03440-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2024] [Accepted: 05/24/2024] [Indexed: 06/26/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND To assess the largely undetermined separate and joint effects of sleep and liver function biomarkers on liver cancer. METHODS Data of 356,894 participants without cancer at baseline in the UK Biobank were analyzed. Sleep score was evaluated using five sleep traits (sleep duration, chronotype, insomnia, snoring, and excessive daytime sleepiness) and dichotomized into healthy or unhealthy sleep. Circulating liver function biomarkers were measured. Cox proportional hazard model was performed to investigate the independent and joint associations of sleep and liver function biomarkers with liver cancer incidence. RESULTS After a median follow-up time of 13.1 years, 394 cases of incident liver cancer were documented. The multivariable-adjusted hazard ratio (HR) for liver cancer was 1.46 (95% confidence interval: 1.15-1.85) associated with unhealthy sleep (vs. healthy sleep), and was 1.17 (1.15-1.20), 1.20 (1.18-1.22), 1.69 (1.47-1.93), 1.06 (1.06-1.07), 1.08 (1.07-1.09), 1.81 (1.37-2.39), or 0.29 (0.18-0.46) associated with each 10-unit increase in alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), total bilirubin (TBIL), gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total protein (TP), or albumin (ALB), respectively. Individuals with unhealthy sleep and high (≥ median) ALT, AST, TBIL, GGT, ALP, or TP or low (< median) ALB level had the highest HR of 3.65 (2.43-5.48), 4.03 (2.69-6.03), 1.97 (1.40-2.77), 4.69 (2.98-7.37), 2.51 (1.75-3.59), 2.09 (1.51-2.89), or 2.22 (1.55-3.17) for liver cancer, respectively. Significant additive interaction of unhealthy sleep with high TP level on liver cancer was observed with relative excess risk due to an interaction of 0.80 (0.19-1.41). CONCLUSIONS Unhealthy sleep was associated with an increased risk of liver cancer, especially in participants with lower ALB levels or higher levels of ALT, AST, TBIL, GGT, ALP, or particularly TP.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aims to investigate the joint effects of cancer and sleep disorders on the health-related quality of life (HRQoL), healthcare resource utilization, and expenditures among US adults. METHODS Utilizing the 2018-2019 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS) database, a sample of 25,274 participants was categorized into four groups based on cancer and sleep disorder status. HRQoL was assessed using the VR-12 questionnaire. Generalized linear model (GLM) with a log-linear regression model combined gamma distribution was applied for the analysis of healthcare expenditure data. RESULTS Individuals with both cancer and sleep disorders (C+/S+) exhibited notably lower physical health (PCS) and mental health (MCS) scores-1.45 and 1.87 points lower, respectively. They also showed significantly increased clinic visits (2.12 times), outpatient visits (3.59 times), emergency visits (1.69 times), and total medical expenditures (2.08 times) compared to those without cancer or sleep disorders (C-/S-). In contrast, individuals with sleep disorders alone (C-/S+) had the highest number of prescription drug usage (2.26 times) and home health care days (1.76 times) compared to the reference group (C-/S-). CONCLUSIONS Regardless of cancer presence, individuals with sleep disorders consistently reported compromised HRQoL. Furthermore, those with cancer and sleep disorders experienced heightened healthcare resource utilization, underscoring the considerable impact of sleep disorders on overall quality of life. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS The findings of this study address the importance of sleep disorders among cancer patients and their potential implications for cancer care. Healthcare professionals should prioritize screening, education, and tailored interventions to support sleep health in this population.

Abstract
The gut microbiota is a system of microorganisms in the human gastrointestinal (GI) system, consisting of trillions of microorganisms residing in epithelial surfaces of the body. Gut microbiota are exposed to various external and internal factors and form a unique gut-associated immunity maintained through a balancing act among diverse groups of microorganisms. The role of microbiota in dysbiosis of the gut in aiding prostate cancer development has created an urgency for extending research toward comprehension and preventative measures. The gut microbiota varies among persons based on diet, race, genetic background, and geographic location. Bacteriome, mainly, has been linked to GI complications, metabolism, weight gain, and high blood sugar. Studies have shown that manipulating the microbiome (bacteriome, virome, and mycobiome) through the dietary intake of phytochemicals positively influences physical and emotional health, preventing and delaying diseases caused by microbiota. In this review, we discuss the wealth of knowledge about the GI tract and factors associated with dysbiosis-mediated compromised gut immunity. This review also focuses on the relationship of dysbiosis to prostate cancer, the impact of microbial metabolites short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) on host health, and the phytochemicals improving health while inhibiting prostate cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Orthodontic treatment often involves four first premolar extractions. There is concern that the retraction of the anterior teeth due to extraction of first premolars may constrict tongue space and will reduce oral cavity and oropharynx space. Constricted airways are often associated with sleep disordered breathing (SDB) and sleep disruption. The aim of this study was to determine if there is an association of SDB factors with the absence of first premolars. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted using National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2017-March 2020 data on participants, aged 18-65 years (n = 4742). Variables of interest included self-reports of SDB (symptoms of disrupted sleep such as snoring, snorting, daytime sleepiness, and inappropriate number of hours of sleep). Data for the presence/absence of first premolars were gathered from the oral examination section of NHANES. An assumption was made that absence of four first premolars in dentate participants indicated extractions for orthodontic treatment. Data analyses were conducted with Rao Scott chi squared test. RESULTS There were no significant associations of SDB and symptoms of disrupted sleep associated with the absence of four first premolars in dentate participants. CONCLUSION Concerns of the impact of first premolar extractions on SDB were not supported with this study.

Abstract
PURPOSE Using a discrete dataset from the Women's Wellness after Cancer Program (WWACP), we examine the prevalence and predictors of self-reported sleep problems in women previously treated for cancer. METHODS Participants were 351 women (Mage = 53.2, SD = 8.8) from the WWACP who had completed surgery, chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy for breast, gynaecological or blood cancers within the previous 24 months. Sleep problems were measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Baseline data (i.e. prior to intervention randomisation) were analysed. RESULTS Most women (59%) reported clinically significant sleep disturbance (PSQI > 5), 40% reported insufficient sleep duration (< 7 h), 38% self-reported poor sleep quality and 28% reported poor habitual sleep efficiency (sleep efficiency < 75%). Fewer psychological and vasomotor climacteric symptoms, age < 45 years and having a partner were associated with reduced odds (AOR < 1) of sleep problems. Higher levels of pain-related disability, and an intermediate compared to 'high' level of education, were associated with increased odds (AOR > 1) of sleep problems. CONCLUSIONS These findings confirm previous studies that have found a high prevalence of sleep problems in women previously treated for cancer. A range of sociodemographic, climacteric and pain-related factors were associated with sleep problems in this study. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS Targeted interventions to improve sleep quality after cancer treatment should be explored in this population. Predictors identified in this study could inform intervention targeting and development.

Abstract
Background Primary liver cancer (PLC) is a fatal malignancy, sleep quality and gut microbiota were shown to be associated with PLC. However, the mechanism of how sleep quality affects PLC is unclear. This study aims to investigate the mediation/moderation effects of gut microbiota on sleep quality and the occurrence of PLC. Methods The causality of sleep quality and the occurrence of PLC was detected through the Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis based on the data including 305,359 individuals (Finland Database) and 456,348 participants (UK Biobank). The primary method used for MR analysis was inverse-variance weighted analysis. Gut microbiota' mediation/moderation effects were uncovered in the case-control study including 254 patients with PLC and 193 people with benign liver diseases through the mediation/moderation effect analyses. People's sleep quality was evaluated through the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI). Results Poor sleep quality could lead to PLC through the MR analysis (P = 0.026). The case-control study uncovered that Actinobacteria had mediation effects on the relationship between PSQI score, self-sleep quality, and the occurrence of PLC (P = 0.048, P = 0.046). Actinobacteria and Bifidobacterium could inhibit the development of PLC caused by short night sleep duration (P = 0.021, P = 0.022). Erysipelotrichales could weaken the influence of daytime dysfunction on PLC (P = 0.033). Roseburia modulated the contribution of nocturnal insomnia and poor sleep quality to PLC (P = 0.009, P = 0.017). Conclusion Poor sleep quality was associated with PLC. Gut microbiota' mediation/moderation effects on poor sleep quality and the occurrence of PLC prompted an insightful idea for the prevention of PLC.

Association of Life's Essential 8 with all-cause mortality and risk of cancer: a prospective cohort study. BMC Public Health 2024; 24:1406. [PMID: 38802806 PMCID: PMC11129373 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-024-18879-y] [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: 12/28/2023] [Accepted: 05/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND No study has concentrated on the association of LE8 with cancer risk and death. We aim to examine the association of LE8 with death and cancer. METHODS A total of 94733 adults aged 51.42 ± 12.46 years and 77551 participants aged 54.09±12.06 years were enrolled in longitudinal and trajectory analysis respectively. Baseline LE8 was divided into three groups based on the American Heart Association criteria and three trajectory patterns by latent mixture models. We reviewed medical records and clinical examinations to confirm incident cancer during the period from 2006 to 2020. Death information was collected from provincial vital statistics offices. Cox models were used. RESULTS 12807 all-cause deaths and 5060 cancers were documented during a 14-year follow-up. Relative to participants with high LE8 at baseline, participants with lower levels of LE8 have a significantly increased risk of mortality and incident cancer. All these risks have an increasing trend with LE8 level decreasing. Meanwhile, the trajectory analysis recorded 7483 all-cause deaths and 3037 incident cancers after approximately 10 years. The associations of LE8 with death and cancer were identical to the longitudinal study. In the subtype cancer analysis, LE8 has a strong effect on colorectal cancer risk. Moreover, the cut point is 56.67 in the association between LE8 and death, while the cut point altered to 64.79 in the association between LE8 and incident cancers. These associations were enhanced among younger adults. CONCLUSIONS There was a significant association of LE8 with death and cancer risk, especially for the young population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was to explore the causal associations of sleep traits including sleep duration, snoring, chronotype, sleep disorders, getting up in the morning, sleeplessness/insomnia and nap during day with the risk of thyroid cancer based on Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. METHOD Summary single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-phenotype association data were obtained from published genome-wide association studies (GWASs) using the FinnGen and UK Biobank databases. A series of screening processes were performed to select qualified SNPs strongly related to exposure. We applied the inverse variance weighted (IVW), the Mendelian Randomization robust adjusted profile score (MR-RAPS), the Mendelian randomization pleiotropy residual sum and outlier (MR-PRESSO), and the Weighted Median to estimate the causal links between sleep traits and the risk of thyroid cancer. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. RESULTS The IVW results showed that getting up in the morning (OR = 0.055, 95%CI: 0.004-0.741) and napping during day (OR = 0.031, 95%CI: 0.002-0.462) were associated with decreased risk of thyroid cancer in the Italian population. A 1.30-h decrease of sleep duration was associated with 7.307-fold of thyroid cancer risk in the Finnish population (OR = 7.307, 95%CI: 1.642-32.519). Cronotype could decrease the risk of thyroid cancer in the Finnish population (OR = 0.282, 95%CI: 0.085-0.939). Sleep disorders increased the risk of thyroid cancer in the Finnish population (OR = 2.298, 95%CI: 1.194-4.422). The combined results revealed that sleep duration was correlated with increased risk of thyroid cancer (OR = 5.600, 95%CI: 1.458-21.486). CONCLUSION Decreased sleep duration was associated with increased risk of thyroid cancer, which indicated the importance of adequate sleep for the prevention of thyroid cancer.

Visual analysis of the research frontiers, hotspots and trends of exercise therapy intervention in tumor-related sleep-wake disorders. Front Oncol 2024; 14:1392844. [PMID: 38741781 PMCID: PMC11089126 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2024.1392844] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2024] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective To systematically understand the research frontiers, hotspots and development trends of exercise therapy in the intervention of tumor-related sleep-wake disorders, and to provide scientific basis for follow-up research. Methods Downloaded the original research papers on February 26, 2024, from the Web of Science core collection database, on tumor-associated sleep-wake disorders. The data that met the inclusion criteria were imported into the Bibliometric Analysis Platform (http://biblimetric.com), CiteSpace 6.3.R1 and VOSviwer1.6.20 software for visual analysis, and imported into Excel2021. Scientometric analysis was performed with Oringin2021 and PyCharm Community Edition 2022.1.3. Results A total of 512 original research papers on tumor-related sleep-wake disorders were obtained. The most influential countries in the subject area are the United States, Spain and German, the institutions are the University of California System, Sun Yat Sen University and Northwestern University, et al., the authors are Berger AM, Aaronson NK, Bower JE, et al., and the journals are Cancer, Brit J Cancer and Cancer Nurs. The co-cited references suggest that the current research frontier in the field mainly involves the level, place and program of exercise therapy, including the relationship between physical activity, sedentary behavior and cancer prevention and control. The results of co-occurrence keyword network analysis showed that quality of life, physical activity, breast cancer, exercise, fatigue, and survivors may be the research hotspots in this field, with breast cancer, health, aerobic exercise, adults, and chemotherapy being the most popular. Conclusions The number of papers published and the research enthusiasm in this field show a steady upward trend. However, there is a lack of influential institutions and scholars, and there is relatively little research collaboration across countries/regions/institutions. The scientific research influence of institutions and scholars in most European and American countries/regions is significantly ahead of that of institutions and scholars in Asian and African countries/regions. But Sun Yat Sen University in China is a relatively active and influential scientific research institution in recent years, which is worthy of attention. In addition, the research frontier of this discipline is the level, place and program of exercise therapy auxiliary intervention, and the research hotspots involve breast cancer, health, aerobic exercise, adults, chemotherapy, et al. Their clinical efficacy needs to be further demonstrated in multi-center, large-sample and high-quality prospective studies.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to analyze signaling pathways associated with differentially expressed messenger RNAs in people with restless legs syndrome (RLS). Seventeen RLS patients and 18 controls were enrolled. Coding RNA expression profiling of 12,857 gene transcripts by next-generation sequencing was performed. Enrichment analysis by pathfindR tool was carried-out, with p-adjusted ≤0.001 and fold-change ≥2.5. Nine main different network groups were significantly dysregulated in RLS: infections, inflammation, immunology, neurodegeneration, cancer, neurotransmission and biological, blood and metabolic mechanisms. Genetic predisposition plays a key role in RLS and evidence indicates its inflammatory nature; the high involvement of mainly neurotropic viruses and the TORCH complex might trigger inflammatory/immune reactions in genetically predisposed subjects and activate a series of biological pathways-especially IL-17, receptor potential channels, nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells, NOD-like receptor, mitogen-activated protein kinase, p53, mitophagy, and ferroptosis-involved in neurotransmitter mechanisms, synaptic plasticity, axon guidance, neurodegeneration, carcinogenesis, and metabolism.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) is a premalignant condition of multiple myeloma with few known risk factors. The emergence of mass spectrometry (MS) for the detection of MGUS has provided new opportunities to evaluate its risk factors. In total, 2628 individuals at elevated risk for multiple myeloma were enrolled in a screening study and completed an exposure survey (PROMISE trial). Participant samples were screened by MS, and monoclonal proteins (M-proteins) with concentrations of ≥0.2 g/L were categorized as MS-MGUS. Multivariable logistic models evaluated associations between exposures and MS outcomes. Compared with normal weight (body mass index [BMI] of 18.5 to <25 kg/m2), obesity (BMI of ≥30 kg/m2) was associated with MS-MGUS, adjusting for age, sex, Black race, education, and income (odds ratio [OR], 1.73; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.21-2.47; P = .003). High physical activity (≥73.5 metabolic equivalent of task (MET)-hours per week vs <10.5 MET-hours per week) had a decreased likelihood of MS-MGUS (OR, 0.45, 95% CI, 0.24-0.80; P = .009), whereas heavy smoking and short sleep had increased likelihood of MS-MGUS (>30 pack-years vs never smoker: OR, 2.19; 95% CI, 1.24-3.74; P = .005, and sleep <6 vs ≥6 hours per day: OR, 2.11; 95% CI, 1.26-3.42; P = .003). In the analysis of all MS-detected monoclonal gammopathies, which are inclusive of M-proteins with concentrations of <0.2 g/L, elevated BMI and smoking were associated with all MS-positive cases. Findings suggest MS-detected monoclonal gammopathies are associated with a broader range of modifiable risk factors than what has been previously identified. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT03689595.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this article is to systematically review the association between dry eye and sleep quality. METHODS PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane, Web of Science, and grey literature databases were searched for observational studies published before April 2023. Meta-analysis was performed using STAT15 software. RESULTS A total of 21 studies with 419,218 participants were included. The results showed that the dry eye subjects had a worse sleep quality than the healthy population, with poorer subjective sleep quality, longer sleep latency, and a higher risk of unhealthy sleep duration such as insufficient sleep or excessive sleep. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scores of the dry eye subjects were significantly higher than those of the control subjects (WMD = 1.78, 95%CI: 1.06, 2.50, P < 0.001). The dry eye subjects scored higher than the control subjects in sleep quality, sleep latency, and sleep disturbance in PSQI; there was no difference between the dry eye individuals and control subjects in sleep duration, sleep efficiency, daytime dysfunction, and sleep medication scores. The risk of sleep disorders in the dry eye subjects was significantly higher than that in the non-dry eye subjects (RR = 2.20, 95%CI: 1.78, 2.72, P < 0.001); the risk of insufficient sleep in the dry eye subjects was higher than that in the control subjects (RR = 3.76, 95%CI: 3.15, 4.48, P < 0.001), and the prevalence of excessive sleepiness in dry eye subjects was higher than that in the control subjects (RR = 5.53, 95%CI: 3.83, 7.18, P < 0.001). The ESS scores of the dry eye subjects were significantly higher than those of the control subjects (WMD = 3.02, 95%CI: 2.43, 3.60, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION Our meta-analysis suggests that individuals with dry eye have a worse sleep quality than the healthy population, with poorer subjective sleep quality, longer sleep latency, and higher risk of unhealthy sleep duration such as insufficient sleep or excessive sleepiness.

Abstract
AIM Sleep disorders are common in cancer patients and have negative consequences for patient well-being and treatment outcomes. This study aimed to investigate sleep quality and related factors in Vietnamese middle-aged cancer patients. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted on 246 middle-aged in-patient cancer patients at Vietnam National Cancer Hospital (VNCH) from 1/2021 to 7/2021. Sleep was measured by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), with a cutoff of 5. RESULTS The results showed a male/female ratio of 0.85 with an average age of 52. The five most prevalent cancer types were breast, colorectal, lung, and esophagus-stomach cancer, primarily in the late stage and treated with chemotherapy. The prevalence of sleep disturbances was 58.5%. The mean PSQI score was 7.5, with sleep duration and latency of 5.4 h and 1 h, respectively. Approximately 44% of participants reported poor sleep quality, nearly 9% had daytime dysfunction, and 10.6% used sleep medication. The multivariate logistic regression results indicate that people with depression were 8.89 times more likely to have poor sleep than those without depression (95% CI:2.63-28.27, p < .001). CONCLUSION Sleep problems are common among middle-aged people with cancer in Vietnam, especially individuals with depression. It is necessary to have more effective approaches to sleep management for cancer patients with limited resources.

[PMID: 38472562 DOI: 10.1007/s00520-024-08425-2] [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: 11/16/2023] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this research is to further understand the research status and summarize the research hotspots of sleep disorder and cancer, so as to provide insights into future researches. METHODS In this research, the publications pertaining to sleep disorders and cancer from 1992 to 2022 was retrieved from SCIE and SSCI databases in the Web of Science Core Collection. The subject, journal, country/regions, institutions, author, and citations of publications were descriptively analyzed and visual analysis. RESULTS From 1992 to December 2022, a total of 732 relevant literatures were retrieved from WOS SCIE and SSCI databases, the number of publications showed an increasing trend year by year. These articles were published in 252 journals, and the three most productive journals included Supportive Care in Cancer (80 publications), Psycho-oncology (32 publications), and Journal of Pain and Symptom Management (32 publications). The three most productive countries included the USA (367 publications, 50.1%), China (133 publications, 18.2%), and Canada (97 publications, 13.25%), with total citations of 12,684, 1866, and 5263. The three latest hot keywords in this field were sleep duration, validity, and inflammation. CONCLUSION The USA, China, and Canada produced a lot of literature in the research field of sleep disorders and cancer, and had relatively great academic influence from 1992 to 2022. Researchers could pay more attention to the published in journals such as Journal of Clinical Oncology, Sleep, and Supportive Care in Cancer to timely grasp the latest progress and expand the breadth and depth in this area. Looking at the history of tumor and sleep disorder research in the past 20 years, the clinical treatment of sleep disorder caused by tumor and the direct bidirectional mechanism of the two may be a new focus of future research.

Front Oncol 2024; 14:1336487. [PMID: 38469244 PMCID: PMC10927008 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2024.1336487] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2023] [Accepted: 01/29/2024] [Indexed: 03/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Sleep disruption affects biological processes that facilitate carcinogenesis. This retrospective cohort study used de-identified data from the Veterans Administration (VA) electronic medical record system to test the hypothesis that patients with diagnosed sleep disorders had an increased risk of prostate, breast, colorectal, or other cancers (1999-2010, N=663,869). This study builds upon existing evidence by examining whether patients with more severe or longer-duration diagnoses were at a greater risk of these cancers relative to those with a less severe or shorter duration sleep disorder. Methods Incident cancer cases were identified in the VA Tumor Registry and sleep disorders were defined by International Classification of Sleep Disorder codes. Analyses were performed using extended Cox regression with sleep disorder diagnosis as a time-varying covariate. Results Sleep disorders were present among 56,055 eligible patients (8% of the study population); sleep apnea (46%) and insomnia (40%) were the most common diagnoses. There were 18,181 cancer diagnoses (41% prostate, 12% colorectal, 1% female breast, 46% other). The hazard ratio (HR) for a cancer diagnosis was 1.45 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.37, 1.54) among those with any sleep disorder, after adjustment for age, sex, state of residence, and marital status. Risks increased with increasing sleep disorder duration (short [<1-2 years] HR: 1.04 [CI: 1.03-1.06], medium [>2-5 years] 1.23 [1.16-1.32]; long [>5-12 years] 1.52 [1.34-1.73]). Risks also increased with increasing sleep disorder severity using cumulative sleep disorder treatments as a surrogate exposure; African Americans with more severe disorders had greater risks relative to those with fewer treatments and other race groups. Results among patients with only sleep apnea, insomnia, or another sleep disorder were similar to those for all sleep disorders combined. Discussion The findings are consistent with other studies indicating that sleep disruption is a cancer risk factor. Optimal sleep and appropriate sleep disorder management are modifiable risk factors that may facilitate cancer prevention.

Nimee F, Gioxari A, Papandreou P, Amerikanou C, Karageorgopoulou S, Kaliora AC, Skouroliakou M. The Effect of Melatonin Supplementation on Cancer-Related Fatigue during Chemotherapy Treatment of Breast Cancer Patients: A Double-Blind, Randomized Controlled Study. Cancers (Basel) 2024; 16:802. [PMID: 38398193 PMCID: PMC10887218 DOI: 10.3390/cancers16040802] [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: 01/19/2024] [Revised: 02/11/2024] [Accepted: 02/13/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Cancer-related fatigue (CRF) is a common distressing complaint of breast cancer (BC) patients treated with chemotherapy. Nutritional quality plays a pivotal role in CRF, while increased interest towards new pharmacological agents has been observed. Melatonin, an endogenous hormone that regulates the human sleep-wake cycle, could alleviate CRF. In the present randomized, placebo-controlled 3-month trial, we investigated the effects of melatonin intake (i.e., 1 mg/day) vs. placebo in BC patients on CRF. In both arms, the Mediterranean diet (MD) was implemented. Medical history, anthropometry and blood withdrawal were performed. CRF was evaluated by the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue questionnaire and MD adherence by the MedDietScore. In total, 49 BC women (median age 52 years) were recruited, namely N = 23 in the intervention arm and N = 26 in the placebo arm. At baseline, CRF was positively associated with body mass index (BMI), even when adjusted for age, waist circumference and blood indices related to disease prognosis (beta = -0.882, p = 0.003). At 3 months, both groups showed a BMI decrease (p < 0.05), but only the intervention group improved CRF compared to baseline (p = 0.003). No differences in CRF were observed between the groups. In conclusion, melatonin oral supplementation could ameliorate CRF in BC patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the contemporary prevalence and decade-long trends of sleep duration, sleep disorders and trouble sleeping among adults in the United States, as well as their risk factors, from 2005 to 2018. MATERIALS AND METHODS We used National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data to calculate the sleep duration and weighted prevalence of sleep disorders and trouble sleeping in adults aged 20 years or older. Sleep duration, sleep disorders and trouble sleeping were assessed by questionnaire. RESULTS A total of 27,399 people were included in the survey on sleep duration, with a weighted percentage of normal sleep (7-8 h/night) of 56.33 % (95 % CI, 53.06-59.60 %) and a weighted percentage of short sleep (5-6 h/night) of 31.73 %. In stratified descriptions, participants aged 40-49 years were more likely to sleep less than five hours, while women aged 80 years and older were more likely to sleep longer and blacks were more likely to sleep shorter. A total of 27,406 participants were included in the survey for sleep disorders. The weighted proportion of the population with sleep disorders was 8.44 % (95 % CI, 7.79-9.8 %). Independent risk factors for sleep disorders were being 40-69 years old, being white, having a high education level, smoking, having hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, and BMI ≥ 25. From 2005 to 2014, the prevalence of sleep disorders increased year by year, from 7.44 % in 2005-2006 to 10.40 % in 2013-2014 (P for Trend<0.001). A total of 38,165 participants were included in the survey on trouble sleeping. The weighted proportion of the population with troubled sleeping was 27.30 % (25.70-28.90 %). Independent risk factors for troubled sleeping were being 30-79 years old, being white, having a high education level, smoking, drinking, having hypertension, diabetes, heart disease and BMI ≥ 25. From 2005 to 2018, the prevalence of trouble sleeping increased annually, from 24.44 % in 2005-2006 to 30.58 % in 2017-2018 (P for trend<0.001). CONCLUSION Adults in the United States are likely to have abnormal sleep durations, and the prevalence of sleep disorders and troubled sleeping is on the rise.

BMC Psychiatry 2024; 24:118. [PMID: 38347467 PMCID: PMC10863252 DOI: 10.1186/s12888-024-05589-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/15/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The circadian clock and endoplasmic reticulum stress signaling play important roles in oncogenesis and development of cancer. Sleep disorders have been linked to an elevated risk of mortality in general populations. Nonetheless, the evidence for the sleep disorders-mortality association among cancer patients is limited. We aimed to prospectively investigate the association of sleep disorders with all-cause, cancer, and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality among cancer individuals. METHODS We assessed 3187 participants with cancer from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005-2016 cohorts with a median follow-up time of 83.0 months. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models estimated the adjusted hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models showed that sleep disorders were associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality (HR 1.23, 95%CI: 1.06,1.42), cancer mortality (HR 1.30, 95%CI: 1.02, 1.66), and cardiovascular disease mortality (HR 1.35, 95%CI: 1.02, 1.80). After the total group was stratified by gender, the high HRs were observed in men (P < 0.05), not in women. The correlation between sleep disorders and higher long-term mortality was also significant after individuals who died within 2 years of follow-up were excluded, with HR 1.24 (95%CI: 1.07, 1.45) in model I, HR 1.20 (95%CI: 1.02, 1.42) in model II for long-term all-cause mortality, HR (95%CI: 1.00, 1.74) in model I for long-term cancer mortality, and HR 1.5 (95%CI:1.12, 2.02) in model I, HR 1.45 (95%CI: 1.06, 1.99) in model II for long-term CVD mortality. CONCLUSIONS Sleep disorders were associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality, cancer mortality, and CVD mortality, as well as long-term mortality in cancer patients. Our finding underlies the importance of screening for sleep disorders for all cancer survivors and the urge to integrate sleep health as an important part of cancer care more effectively. Male individuals may be particularly vulnerable and could benefit from more frequent screening.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study used National Health Insurance claims data from Korea to report the prevalence of sleep disorders and treatment status, including traditional Korean medicine, in the last 10 years. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study in Korea. All diagnosis and prescription data, including herbal medicine claims, from the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service from 2011 to 2020 were reviewed. Prevalence estimation, direct medical expenses and prescribed amounts for sleep disorders were recorded. RESULTS The prevalence of sleep disorders increased from 3 867 975 (7.62%) in 2011 to 7 446 846 (14.41%) in 2020, nearly doubling over 10 years. Insomnia was observed in 91.44% (n=9 011 692) of the patients. The mean number of hospital visits per patient for sleep disorders was 11.5 (±26.62). Benzodiazepines are the most commonly prescribed medications for sleep disorders, and gamma-isoyosan is the most frequently prescribed herbal medicine. CONCLUSIONS Sleep disorders are continuously increasing, as is the use of medical services-personal and social medical expenses are also increasing accordingly. Sleep disorders should be recognised as a significant health problem that needs to be actively addressed to improve quality of life.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Exercise has been recommended to enhance sleep. However, there is a paucity of studies investigating the relationships between exercise and sleep problems in patients with bladder cancer. The authors explored the effects of a single bout of light-intensity walking on the sleep quality of patients with bladder cancer who have sleep disorders. DATA SOURCES A total of 14 patients with bladder cancer with sleep disorders were recruited for this trial. The participants were randomly assigned to the walking or control condition in a cross-over design to explore the effects of a single light-intensity walking session on objectively measured sleep quality. A two-way repeated measures analysis of variance and a nonparametric permutation test were used to examine intervention effects. Twelve participants (85.7%) completed the trial. A significant group × time interaction for sleep latency (P = .023) was identified. The pairwise comparison showed significant results (P = .012) for the difference between the post-test sleep latency and the pre-test. No significant group × time interactions were observed for the remaining seven sleep parameters. Additionally, only the main effects of time on length of awakening and time in bed were significant (P < .001). CONCLUSION A single bout of light-intensity walking has a positive effect on shortening the sleep latency of patients with bladder cancer who have sleep disorders. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE Oncology nurses can encourage patients with bladder cancer to exercise, even light-intensity walking, which may improve sleep quality.

Abstract
Objective This study aims to investigate the variations in fatigue and sleep disturbances among female patients with advanced lung cancer (ALC) and advanced breast cancer (ABC) during chemotherapy. Methods A total of 36 female patients with ALC and 36 with ABC, all of whom had completed their first cycle of chemotherapy, were included. Fatigue was assessed using the General Fatigue Scale (GFS), and sleep disturbances were evaluated using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) at designated time points throughout the chemotherapy process. Results Linear regression analysis indicated that variables such as age, education level, employment status, cancer type, clinical stage, and symptom distress had no significant correlation with either fatigue or sleep disturbances. The GFS significantly discriminated fatigue among the ALC, ABC, and combined groups, while the PSQI demonstrated a significant distinction in sleep disturbance only within the ALC and combined groups. Conclusions In summary, when considering the findings of both assessments in this study, the GFS score exhibited greater sensitivity in detecting fatigue than the PSQI score did for identifying sleep disturbances in advanced cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sleep is a critical health-related behavior; research evidence has shown that sleep duration, poor sleep quality and insomnia are associated with aging and relevant age-related diseases. However, the associations between sleep duration, chronotype, sleep disturbance, and biological age have not been comprehensively assessed. This study aimed to examine sleep characteristics with biological age. METHODS The study included 6534 participants aged 20 years and older from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey between 2017 and March 2020. Sleep questionnaires were used to collect information on sleep duration and wake behavior on workdays and workfree days and sleep disturbance. Phenotypic age acceleration (PhenoAgeAccel) was estimated as a biological age measure using 9 blood chemistry biomarkers. RESULTS Long sleep (>9 hours) and extremely short sleep (≤4 hours) on workdays were positively associated with PhenoAgeAccel, compared with optimal sleep duration (7-8 hours). Similar positive associations with PhenoAgeAccel were observed for sleep duration on workfree days and across the whole week. Both slightly evening and evening chronotypes were associated with faster PhenoAgeAccel compared to morning chronotype. Social jetlag and sleep disturbance were not associated with PhenoAgeAccel, while long corrected social jetlag was associated with faster PhenoAgeAccel. The associations of sleep duration, chronotype, and corrected social jetlag with PhenoAgeAccel appeared stronger among females than among males. CONCLUSIONS Findings suggest a U-shape relationship between sleep duration and biological aging; slightly evening and evening chronotypes may be risk factors for aging. Further studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Prev Med 2024; 179:107853. [PMID: 38211801 DOI: 10.1016/j.ypmed.2024.107853] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2023] [Revised: 01/06/2024] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 01/13/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate Life's Essential 8 (LE8), a measure of cardiovascular health (CVH), associations with mortality outcomes in cancer survivors. METHODS A prospective cohort study included 1818 cancer survivors aged ≥20 years (weighted population: 13,204,583) from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2005-2018. Linked to mortality data through 2019, LE8 data were gathered through self-reports and lab tests. An LE8 score of 80-100 is considered high CVH, 60-79 is moderate CVH, and 0-59 is low CVH. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models were employed to evaluate the associations between LE8 and all-cause, cancer-specific and non-cancer mortality. Subsequently, subgroup analyses were conducted to assess the relationship between LE8 and mortality rates across various subgroups. RESULTS At baseline, there were 1818 cancer survivors. In a 15-year follow-up, 2548 deaths occurred: 601 from cancer, 647 from heart disease, and 1300 from other causes. Multivariable models showed high CVH associated with lower hazard ratios for all-cause, cancer-specific and non-cancer mortality vs. low CVH. Cumulative mortality rates increased during follow-up, more so in the low CVH group. Subgroup analysis revealed significant LE8 interactions with age or Poverty Income Ratio (PIR) for all-cause mortality. Additionally, significant interactions between LE8 and PIR were identified for cancer-specific and non-cancer mortality risks (P for interaction <0.05). CONCLUSION Among U.S. cancer survivors, higher CVH is independently linked to lower all-cause, cancer-specific, and non-cancer mortality risks. The new CVH definition shows promise as a primary prevention strategy to reduce mortality rates in U.S. cancer survivors.

Abstract
Chlordane, a previously extensively utilized insecticidal pesticide, has since been prohibited, however, owing to its limited degradability, it continues to persist significantly in soil and water reservoirs, subsequently accumulating within plant and animal organisms, representing a substantial threat to human health. Despite extensive research conducted over the past few decades to investigate the toxic effects of chlordane, there remains a notable dearth of studies focusing on its impact on sleep activity. Therefore, in this study, the effects of short-term and long-term exposure to chlordane on the activity and sleep of Drosophila were investigated. When exposed to chlordane at a concentration of 1 μM, Drosophila lost body weight, decreased body size and resulted in lipid metabolism disorders. In addition, chlordane exposure altered the arousal and sleep behaviors of Drosophila. Short-term exposure to chlordane resulted in an increase in night-time sleep duration, while long-term exposure to chlordane resulted in an increase in activity and a decrease in sleep, as evidenced by a decrease in the duration of each sleep session and the appearance of sleep fragmentation. Under conditions of long-term chlordane exposure, reactive oxygen species levels were significantly up-regulated in Drosophila. Our results suggest that long-term chlordane exposure triggers oxidative stress damage in Drosophila, leading to sleep disruption. This study offers novel insights into the harmful impacts of environmental pollutants on human sleep patterns and proposes that mitigating the presence of chlordane in the environment could potentially contribute to the reduction of global sleep disorder prevalence.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide, and most patients experience fatigue. However, there are no effective treatments for cancer-related fatigue (CRF). Several randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have suggested that moxibustion improves CRF. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare the differences in fatigue scale scores, quality of life, and clinical efficacy in patients with breast cancer who developed CRF and did versus did not receive moxibustion. METHODS RCTs were searched in 7 databases using a standardized search method from database inception to March 2023, and RCTs that met the inclusion criteria were selected. RESULTS Among 1337 initially identified RCTs, 10 RCTs involving 744 participants were selected for this study. The meta-analysis involved assessment of the revised Piper Fatigue Scale scores, Cancer Fatigue Scale scores, Karnofsky Performance Scale scores, Athens Insomnia Scale scores, clinical efficacy, and Qi deficiency syndrome scale scores. Compared with the control, moxibustion was associated with significantly better Piper Fatigue Scale scores (P < 0.0001), quality of life [Karnofsky Performance Scale scores (P < 0.0001)], clinical efficacy (P = 0.0007), and Qi deficiency syndrome scale scores (P = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS Moxibustion improves CRF in patients with breast cancer. The efficacy of moxibustion should be further examined by high-quality studies in various countries with patients subdivided by their breast cancer treatment status.

Abstract
Epidemiological studies indicate that about 35% of the world's population periodically suffer from insomnia. Many authors in their studies note sleep disturbances in the clinic of both somatic and mental disorders, often considering sleep disturbances as one of the predictors of these diseases. In psychiatric practice, sleep disorders are most often described in the clinic of depression, which is determined by the general pathophysiological mechanisms of their development due to disruption of the activity of the main neurotransmitter systems of the brain. The results of clinical studies show that the drug of choice in the treatment of sleep disorders in the depression clinic is the antidepressant Mirtazapine, which has a unique profile of pharmacological activity. According to international recommendations, Mirtazapine is a first-line drug in the treatment of anxiety and depressive disorders with sleep disorders and sexual dysfunction caused by taking other antidepressants.

Abstract
The study of neurological symptoms and signs connected with neoplasms and antitumor therapy is relevant in the context of an increasing prevalence of cancer. The COVID-19 pandemic and social factors have increased the number of patients suffering from insomnia. Sleep disorders is an unfavorable prognostic factor for neoplasms. The review presents risk factors and mechanisms of sleep disturbance, their relationship with inflammation and dysfunction of the immune system in cancer. In particular, dysfunction of the melatonergic system is discussed as a risk factor for the development of insomnia and cancer. The relevance of developing measures aimed at the rehabilitation of patients in order to restore normal sleep, which plays a fundamental role in maintaining a person's mental and physical health, is emphasized.

GABA induced by sleep deprivation promotes the proliferation and migration of colon tumors through miR-223-3p endogenous pathway and exosome pathway. J Exp Clin Cancer Res 2023; 42:344.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Research has indicated that long-term sleep deprivation can lead to immune dysfunction and participate in the occurance and progression of tumors. However, the relationship between sleep deprivation and colon cancer remains unclear. This study explored the specific mechanism through which sleep deprivation promotes the proliferation and migration of colon cancer, with a focus on the neurotransmitter GABA. METHODS Chronic sleep deprivation mice model were used to investigate the effect of sleep disorder on tumors. We detected neurotransmitter levels in the peripheral blood of mice using ELISA. CCK-8 assay, colony formation assay, wound healing assay, and transwell assay were performed to investigate the effect of GABA on colon cancer cells, while immunofluorescence showed the distribution of macrophages in lung metastatic tissues. We isolated exosomes from a GABA-induced culture medium to explore the effects of GABA-induced colon cancer cells on macrophages. Gain- and loss-of-function experiments, luciferase report analysis, immunohistochemistry, and cytokine detection were performed to reveal the crosstalk between colon cancer cells and macrophages. RESULTS Sleep deprivation promote peripheral blood GABA level and colon cancer cell proliferation and migration. Immunofluorescence analysis revealed that GABA-induced colon cancer metastasis is associated with enhanced recruitment of macrophages in the lungs. The co-culture results showed that GABA intensified M2 polarization of macrophage induced by colon cancer cells. This effect is due to the activation of the macrophage MAPK pathway by tumor-derived exosomal miR-223-3p. Furthermore, M2-like macrophages promote tumor proliferation and migration by secreting IL-17. We also identified an endogenous miR-223-3p downregulation of the E3 ligase CBLB, which enhances the stability of cMYC protein and augments colon cancer cells proliferation and migration ability. Notably, cMYC acts as a transcription factor and can also regulate the expression of miR-223-3p. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that sleep deprivation can promote the expression of miR-223-3p in colon cancer cells through GABA, leading to downregulation of the E3 ligase CBLB and inhibition of cMYC ubiquitination. Simultaneously, extracellular miR-223-3p promotes M2-like macrophage polarization, which leads to the secretion of IL-17, further enhancing the proliferation and migration of colon cancer cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many patients treated for breast cancer (BC) complain about cognitive difficulties affecting their daily lives. Recently, sleep disturbances and circadian rhythm disruptions have been brought to the fore as potential contributors to cognitive difficulties in patients with BC. Yet, studies on these factors as well as their neural correlates are scarce. The purpose of the ICANSLEEP-1 (Impact of SLEEP disturbances in CANcer) study is to characterize sleep using polysomnography and its relationship with the evolution of cognitive functioning at both the behavioral and the neuroanatomical levels across treatment in BC patients treated or not with adjuvant chemotherapy. METHODS ICANSLEEP-1 is a longitudinal study including BC patients treated with adjuvant chemotherapy (n = 25) or not treated with adjuvant chemotherapy (n = 25) and healthy controls with no history of BC (n = 25) matched for age (45-65 years old) and education level. The evaluations will take place within 6 weeks after inclusion, before the initiation of chemotherapy (for BC patients who are candidates for chemotherapy) or before the first fraction of radiotherapy (for BC patients with no indication for chemotherapy) and 6 months later (corresponding to 2 weeks after the end of chemotherapy). Episodic memory, executive functions, psychological factors, and quality of life will be assessed with validated neuropsychological tests and self-questionnaires. Sleep quantity and quality will be assessed with polysomnography and circadian rhythms with both actigraphy and saliva cortisol. Grey and white matter volumes, as well as white matter microstructural integrity, will be compared across time between patients and controls and will serve to further investigate the relationship between sleep disturbances and cognitive decline. DISCUSSION Our results will help patients and clinicians to better understand sleep disturbances in BC and their relationship with cognitive functioning across treatment. This will aid the identification of more appropriate sleep therapeutic approaches adapted to BC patients. Improving sleep in BC would eventually help limit cognitive deficits and thus improve quality of life during and after treatments. TRIAL REGISTRATION NCT05414357, registered June 10, 2022.

The Impact of Palliative Care on Mitigating Pain and Its Associated Effects in Determining Quality of Life among Colon Cancer Outpatients. Healthcare (Basel) 2023; 11:2954. [PMID: 37998446 PMCID: PMC10671794 DOI: 10.3390/healthcare11222954] [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: 09/22/2023] [Revised: 11/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/10/2023] [Indexed: 11/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Pain continues to be a significant problem for cancer patients, and the impact of a population-based strategy on their experiences is not completely understood. Our study aimed to determine the impact of palliative care on mitigating pain and its associated effects in determining the quality of life (QoL) among colon cancer outpatients. Six collection databases were used to perform a structured systematic review of the available literature, considering all papers published between the year 2000 and February 2023. PRISMA guidelines were adopted in our study, and a total of 9792 papers were evaluated. However, only 126 articles met the inclusion criteria. A precise diagnosis of disruptive colorectal cancer (CRC) pain disorders among patients under palliative care is necessary to mitigate it and its associated effects, enhance health, promote life expectancy, increase therapeutic responsiveness, and decrease comorbidity complications. Physical activities, the use of validated pain assessment tools, remote outpatient education and monitoring, chemotherapeutic pain reduction strategies, music and massage therapies, and bridging social isolation gaps are essential in enhancing QoL. We recommend and place a strong emphasis on the adoption of online training/or coaching programs and the integration of formal and informal palliative care systems for maximum QoL benefits among CRC outpatients.

Abstract
PURPOSE Psychiatric disorders and cancer are both common, and comorbidity has detrimental impacts on cancer outcomes. Previous studies focus on affective disorders which arise after cancer diagnosis, not on the impact of psychiatric disorders on cancer risk. We investigate the association between psychiatric disorders and subsequent gastrointestinal cancer in a large cohort in Germany. METHODS This case-control study used secondary data (electronic medical records) from the national IQVIA Disease Analyzer database. We evaluated the association between previous psychiatric diagnosis in 44,582 matched patients with and without gastrointestinal (GI) cancer. Regression analyses were stratified by psychiatric diagnosis and adjusted by chronic comorbidities and previous psychiatric treatments. RESULTS No association between any previous psychiatric disease and GI cancers was found (OR = 0.98 (0.95-1.02 95%CL, p = 0.39). Previous psychosomatic disorder and GI cancer showed a significant negative association (OR: 0.86, 0.81-0.90 95%CL, p < 0.0001). No association was found between previous diagnosis with depression or PTSD and GI cancer. These results remained consistent when including previous psychiatric treatments in the regression analyses. CONCLUSION Psychiatric disease was not associated with GI cancer risk. Further investigation into the pathways linking psychiatric disease and cancer needs to be conducted, taking into consideration psychiatric treatments administered, to enhance our understanding of the relationship between these two common and devastating diseases.

Abstract
This study aimed to examine the frequency of fibromyalgia (FM) in patients with lung cancer and evaluate its effect on patients' pain, sleep quality, fatigue, and quality of life parameters. The study was designed as a prospective cross-sectional and a total of 116 lung cancer patients were included. FM classification was made according to the 2016 ACR criteria. All patients were evaluated using a visual analog scale, fibromyalgia impact questionnaire, multidimensional assessment of fatigue, EuroQol 5D scale, Jenkins sleep scale, and Beck depression inventory. Patients were divided into FM-positive and negative groups according to the presence of FM. Demographic and clinical parameters were investigated between the groups. FM was detected in 14 (12.2%) patients. The mean age of the patients was 62.2 ± 8.4 years. There was a male predominance in 93 (80.2%) patients. No statistical difference was found between the groups in terms of body mass index, age, symptom duration, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy history. A statistically significant difference was found between FM positive and negative groups in FIQ, multidimensional assessment of fatigue, JSS, EQ-5D, visual analog scale, and Beck depression inventory scores. FM is seen more frequently in patients with lung cancer and has a negative effect on sleep, quality of life, fatigue, and mental functions. We think that physicians should not ignore the presence of FM when treating patients diagnosed with lung cancer.

Abstract
Cancer patients may experience significant distress. The "Emotion Thermometers" (ETs) are a short visual analogue scale used to screen patients for psychosocial risk. This study aimed to assess emotional distress in a large sample of cancer patients attending psychological services at an non-governmental organization (NGO), and to explore factors that may contribute to it. The ETs were answered by 899 cancer patients. They were, on average, 59.9 years old, the majority were female, had breast cancer, were under treatment or were disease-free survivors, and reported high levels of emotional distress, above the cut-off (≥5). A Generalized Linear Model was used to measure the association between the level of distress, age, gender, disease phase and 33 items of the problem list. Four items-sadness, depression, sleep and breathing-were found to be significantly related to a higher level of distress. Additionally, women and patients who were in the palliative phase also had significantly higher levels of distress. The results confirm the need for early emotional screening in cancer patients, as well as attending to the characteristics of each patient. Additionally, they highlight the utility of the ETs for the clinical practice, allowing to optimize the referral to specialized psychosocial services.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Previous studies that focussed on sleep disturbance have primarily examined specific aspects of sleep disorders rather than considering overall sleep quality. We aimed to investigate different sleep disorders and their combination as risk factors for different types of cancer. STUDY DESIGN Prospective cohort study. METHODS In this prospective cohort study, we included 78,232 participants. A self-reported questionnaire was used to address insomnia, daytime sleepiness, snoring, and sleep duration. Overall sleep quality was evaluated by summarising these four sleep parameters. Cox proportional hazards analysis was used to estimate the hazard ratios and their 95% confidence intervals for determining the effect of the overall sleep-quality score and its components on the risk of incident cancer. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 5.67 years, 1266 participants were diagnosed with incident cancer. Compared to participants in the best sleep-quality score group, participants in the worst sleep-quality score group had a higher subsequent risk of overall cancer, and colorectal, breast, uterine or uterine cervical, prostatic, kidney, and bladder cancer. Participants with insomnia and snoring status had an elevated risk of head and neck, breast, uterine or uterine cervical, prostatic, kidney, bladder cancer, and lymphoma. CONCLUSIONS Poor overall sleep-quality scores as well as poor scores for the scale's components, including insomnia and snoring status, elevated the risk of overall and several specific-site cancers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Children treated for cancer are at risk to develop cognitive problems. Insight in underlying associations with emotional functioning and fatigue can be used to optimize interventions. We therefore aim to study emotional functioning, fatigue, and cognitive functioning in children postcancer treatment and investigate whether fatigue mediates the relationship between emotional and cognitive functioning. DESIGN/METHODS Emotional functioning, fatigue, and cognitive functioning were assessed in children post-cancer treatment using subscales of the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) Generic Core Scales, Multidimensional Fatigue Scale and Cognitive Functioning Scale. A one sample t-test was used to compare outcomes with general population peers and mediation analysis was used to address the effect of fatigue on the relationship between emotional and cognitive functioning. RESULTS A total of 137 children (mean age: 13.6, SD ± 3.3 years; mean time since end of treatment: 7.1 months, SD ± 5.9) participated. Lower scores on emotional functioning (Cohen's d [D]: 0.4), fatigue (D: 0.8) and cognitive functioning (D: 0.6) were found (p < .001) in children post-cancer treatment than in peers. A medium association was found between emotional and cognitive functioning (standardized regression coefficient [β]: 0.27, p < .001), which was mediated by fatigue (β = 0.16). CONCLUSIONS Outcomes on emotional and cognitive functioning are decreased and fatigue is increased in children postcancer treatment. Fatigue mediates the relationship between emotional and cognitive functioning. Our results show the importance to focus on fatigue amongst stress as a target for intervention to improve cognitive functioning.

Abstract
PURPOSE Sleep disorders are among the most common health problems worldwide and are linked to a variety of physical and mental health problems. Recently, there has been increasing evidence of an association between sleep disorders and cancer risk. We aimed to investigate this association specifically for cancers of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. METHODS Using the DA database (IQVIA), adult patients diagnosed with GI cancer between January 2010 and December 2022 were retrospectively compared to a 1:1 propensity score-matched cohort of patients without cancer. The outcome of the study was the association between sleep disorders and subsequent diagnosis of GI cancer. To determine whether sleep disorders were more common in patients with GI cancer than in patients without GI cancer, logistic regression models were used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). RESULTS After matching, 37,161 cases with GI cancer and 37,161 controls without cancer were available for analysis. No association with cancer was found for sleep disorders in the overall history before the index date (OR 1.04; 95% CI 0.96-1.12), but considering sleep disorders documented within 1 year before the index date showed a positive association with GI cancer overall (OR 1.20; 95% CI 1.08-1.34). Stratified analyses by cancer site revealed higher odds of sleep disorders prior to diagnosis of gastric, pancreatic, and colorectal cancer. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that sleep disorders might be indicative of short-term health outcomes, including GI cancer, suggesting a role for sleep disorder screening in the context of cancer prevention efforts.

Abstract
The impact of sleep disorders (SDs), particularly sleep apnea (SA), on the development of colorectal cancer (CRC) has been the subject of significant research. However, the potential contribution of other SDs to the incidence of CRC remains unexplored. The objective of this study was to examine the effects of SDs on the risk of developing CRC. This study assessed CRC risk among individuals diagnosed with SDs compared with age- and sex-matched unaffected individuals. A longitudinal, nationwide, population-based cohort study was conducted using data from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD) encompassing 177,707 individuals diagnosed with SDs and 177,707 matched controls. Cox proportional hazard regression analysis was used to determine the relative increased risk of CRC in individuals with SDs and specific subgroups of SDs. The CRC incidences were 1.32-fold higher (95% CI 1.23-1.42) in the overall SD cohort, 1.17-fold higher (95% CI 0.82-1.68) in the SA cohort, 1.42-fold higher (95% CI 1.31-1.55) in the insomnia cohort, 1.27-fold higher (95% CI 1.17-1.38) in the sleep disturbance cohort, and 1.00-fold higher (95% CI 0.77-1.29) in the other SD cohort, after adjusting for age, sex, and comorbidities.

Abstract
Circadian, hormonal, and sleep rhythm disruptions are commonly experienced concerns among cancer patients throughout the cancer care continuum. This review aims to summarize the existing literature on circadian, hormonal, and sleep rhythms in the oncological population, focusing on circadian disruption and physiological and psychological abnormalities, disease progression, and chronomodulated treatment approaches. The findings demonstrate that subjectively and objectively measured circadian rhythm disruption is associated with adverse mental health and disease outcomes in patients with cancer. Chronomodulated chemotherapy, light therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia, and physical activity have shown evidence of effectiveness in improving sleep, and occasionally, disease outcomes.

Sleep Duration and Stress Level in the Risk of Gastric Cancer: A Pooled Analysis of Case-Control Studies in the Stomach Cancer Pooling (StoP) Project. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:4319. [PMID: 37686594 PMCID: PMC10486543 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15174319] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2023] [Revised: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 08/24/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023] Open
Abstract
The association between sleep and stress and cancer is underinvestigated. We evaluated these factors in association with gastric cancer (GC). Five case-control studies from the Stomach Cancer Pooling (StoP) Project were included. We calculated the odds ratios (ORs) and the corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for sleep duration and stress level in association with GC through multiple logistic regression models adjusted for several lifestyle factors. The analysis included 1293 cases and 4439 controls, 215 cardia and 919 noncardia GC, and 353 diffuse and 619 intestinal types. Sleep duration of ≥9 h was associated with GC (OR =1.57, 95% CI = 1.23-2.00) compared to 8 h. This was confirmed when stratifying by subsite (noncardia OR = 1.59, 95% CI = 1.22-2.08, and cardia OR = 1.63, 95% CI = 0.97-2.72) and histological type (diffuse OR = 1.65, 95% CI = 1.14-2.40 and intestinal OR = 1.24, 95% CI = 0.91-1.67). Stress was associated with GC (OR = 1.33, 95% CI = 1.18-1.50, continuous). This relationship was selectively related to noncardia GC (OR = 1.28, 95% 1.12-1.46, continuous). The risk of diffuse (OR = 1.32, 95% CI = 1.11-1.58) and intestinal type (OR = 1.23, 95% CI = 1.07-1.42) were higher when stress was reported. Results for the association between increasing level of stress and GC were heterogeneous by smoking and socioeconomic status (p for heterogeneity = 0.02 and <0.001, respectively). In conclusion, long sleep duration (≥9 h) was associated with GC and its subtype categories. Stress linearly increased the risk of GC and was related to noncardia GC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the current family resilience levels of Chinese patients with gynecologic cancer and explore the mediating role of couple illness communication between illness perception and family resilience to facilitate patient adaptation to cancer. METHODS A total of 310 patients with gynecologic cancer were selected from the gynecology ward of a tertiary care hospital in Jinan, Shandong Province, China. All participants provided their demographic and clinical information and completed the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (BIPQ), Couples' Illness Communication Scale (CICS), and Family Hardiness Index (FHI). The mediating effect of couple illness communication was analyzed using SPSS26.0 and Amos21.0. RESULTS The family resilience score of patients with gynecologic cancer was moderate (55.78 ± 8.65). Illness perception was negatively correlated with couple illness communication(p < 0.05) and family resilience(p < 0.01), while couple illness communication was positively correlated with family resilience (p < 0.01). Couple illness communication mediated the relationship between illness perception and family resilience [β = - 0.071; 95% confidence interval: (- 0.127)-(- 0.013)]. CONCLUSIONS The family resilience of patients with gynecologic cancer must be further improved. Since couple illness communication mediates the relationship between illness perception and family resilience in this population, it is important to improve patients' illness perceptions and couple illness communication to enhance their family resilience.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Risk factors contributing to more than 10-fold increase in esophageal cancer in the last 50 years remain underexplored. We aim to examine the associations of sleep behaviors with esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) and squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). METHODS We prospectively assessed the associations between sleep behaviors (chronotype, duration, daytime napping, daytime sleepiness, snoring, and insomnia) and EAC and ESCC risk in 393,114 participants in the UK Biobank (2006-2016). Participants with 0, 1, and ≥2 unhealthy behaviors, including sleep <6 or >9 h/d, daytime napping, and usual daytime sleepiness were classified as having a good, intermediate, and poor sleep. For EAC, we also examined interactions with polygenic risk score (PRS). Cox models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS We documented 294 incident EAC and 95 ESCC. Sleep >9 h/d (HR, 2.05; 95% CI, 1.18-3.57) and sometimes daytime napping (HR, 1.36; 95% CI, 1.06-1.75) were individually associated with increased EAC risk. Compared with individuals with good sleep, those with intermediate sleep had a 47% (HR, 1.47; 95% CI, 1.13-1.91) increased EAC risk, and those with poor sleep showed an 87% (HR, 1.87; 95% CI, 1.24-2.82) higher risk (Ptrend < 0.001). The elevated risks for EAC were similar within strata of PRS (Pinteraction = 0.884). Evening chronotype was associated with elevated risk of ESCC diagnosed after 2 years of enrollment (HR, 2.79; 95% CI, 1.32-5.88). CONCLUSIONS Unhealthy sleep behaviors were associated with an increased risk of EAC, independent of genetic risk. IMPACT Sleep behaviors may serve as modifiable factors for the prevention of EAC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Insufficient or disrupted sleep increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, including atherosclerosis. However, we know little about the molecular mechanisms by which sleep modulates atherogenesis. This study aimed to explore the potential role of circulating exosomes in endothelial inflammation and atherogenesis under sleep deprivation status and the molecular mechanisms involved. METHODS Circulating exosomes were isolated from the plasma of volunteers with or without sleep deprivation and mice subjected to 12-week sleep deprivation or control littermates. miRNA array was performed to determine changes in miRNA expression in circulating exosomes. RESULTS Although the total circulating exosome levels did not change significantly, the isolated plasma exosomes from sleep-deprived mice or human were a potent inducer of endothelial inflammation and atherogenesis. Through profiling and functional analysis of the global microRNA in the exosomes, we found miR-182-5p is a key exosomal cargo that mediates the proinflammatory effects of exosomes by upregulation of MYD88 (myeloid differentiation factor 88) and activation of NF-ĸB (nuclear factor kappa-B)/NLRP3 pathway in endothelial cells. Moreover, sleep deprivation or the reduction of melatonin directly decreased the synthesis of miR-182-5p and led to the accumulation of reactive oxygen species in small intestinal epithelium. CONCLUSIONS The findings illustrate an important role for circulating exosomes in distant communications, suggesting a new mechanism underlying the link between sleep disorder and cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep problems are frequent in older adults and are associated with chronic diseases. However, the association with multimorbidity patterns is still unknown. Considering the negative impacts that multimorbidity patterns can have on older adults' life, knowledge of this association can help in the screening and early identification of older adults with sleep problems. The objective was to verify the association between sleep problems and multimorbidity patterns in older Brazilian adults. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study conducted with data from 22,728 community-dwelling older adults from the 2019 National Health Survey. The exposure variable was self-reported sleep problems (yes/no). The study outcomes were: multimorbidity patterns, analyzed by self-report of the coexistence of two or more chronic diseases with similar clinical characteristics: (1) cardiopulmonary; (2) vascular-metabolic; (3) musculoskeletal; (4) coexisting patterns. RESULTS Older adults with sleep problems had 1.34 (95%CI: 1.21; 1.48), 1.62 (95%CI: 1.15; 2.28), 1.64 (95%CI: 1.39; 1.93), and 1.88 (95%CI: 1.52; 2.33) greater odds of presenting vascular-metabolic, cardiopulmonary, musculoskeletal, and coexisting patterns, respectively. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that public health programs aimed at preventing sleep problems in older adults are essential to reduce possible adverse health outcomes, including multimorbidity patterns and their negative consequences for older adults' health.

Abstract
Insomnia symptoms are common among patients with breast cancer (BC; 20-70%) and are predictors of cancer progression and quality of life. Studies have highlighted sleep structure modifications, including increased awakenings and reduced sleep efficiency and total sleep time. Such modifications may result from circadian rhythm alterations consistently reported in this pathology and known as carcinogenic factors, including lower melatonin levels, a flattened diurnal cortisol pattern, and lower rest-activity rhythm amplitude and robustness. Cognitive behavioral therapy and physical activity are the most commonly used non-pharmacological interventions to counter insomnia difficulties in patients with BC. However, their effects on sleep structure remain unclear. Moreover, such approaches may be difficult to implement shortly after chemotherapy. Innovatively, vestibular stimulation would be particularly suited to tackling insomnia symptoms. Indeed, recent reports have shown that vestibular stimulation could resynchronize circadian rhythms and improve deep sleep in healthy volunteers. Moreover, vestibular dysfunction has been reported following chemotherapy. This perspective paper aims to support the evidence of using galvanic vestibular stimulation to resynchronize circadian rhythms and reduce insomnia symptoms in patients with BC, with beneficial effects on quality of life and, potentially, survival.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previous research has shown that many patients with musculoskeletal diseases suffer from sleep disturbances. However, the sleep quality of patients with cervical radiculopathy (CR) has yet to be fully investigated. This study aims to investigate the prevalence and status of sleep disturbances in patients with CR and identify the mechanisms and risk factors associated with this condition. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study of patients diagnosed with CR. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) were used to evaluate the sleep quality of patients and determine whether patients experience sleep disturbances. In addition, we analyzed the clinical and radiological risk factors of sleep disturbance and determined the key risk factors related to sleep disturbance by multivariable analysis. RESULTS According to specific inclusion and exclusion criteria, 186 patients with CR were finally included, with a mean age of 59.1 ± 14.3 years, of which 113 (60.8%) were female. Sleep disturbance was defined as a PSQI score ≥ 6 and was identified in 56.5% of patients (105/186). By performing multivariate analysis, we determined that sleep disturbance was closely related to the female gender, a higher Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) score, a reduction in cervical mobility, an increase in C2-C7 sagittal vertical axis (C2-C7 SVA), and severe asymmetry of the paravertebral muscle at C5 and C6 levels. CONCLUSION In this study, we identified the high prevalence and potential high-risk factors of sleep disturbance in patients with CR. Clinicians should closely evaluate and monitor such patients and consider appropriate treatment strategies. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV.

[PMID: 37099665 DOI: 10.1002/nop2.1784] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2022] [Revised: 03/10/2023] [Accepted: 04/16/2023] [Indexed: 04/28/2023] Open
Abstract
AIM The aim of the study was to investigate the incidence of sleep disturbance and its relationship with anxiety and depression symptoms, social support and hope in breast cancer patients in China during chemotherapy. DESIGN A single-centre cross-sectional study. METHODS A total of 329 breast cancer patients were selected via convenience sampling method before they began chemotherapy (n = 115), before the 5th week of chemotherapy (n = 117) or 1 month after chemotherapy ended (n = 97) and administered paper-and-pencil questionnaires to evaluate sleep quality, depression and anxiety symptoms, social support and hope. Risk factors significantly associated with sleep disturbance during bivariate were incorporated in the multivariate analysis. Bivariate analyses showed that age, menopausal status, depression and anxiety symptoms, emotional/informational support, tangible support, affectionate support, positive social interaction and total support were predictors of sleep disturbance. RESULTS Sleep disturbance was prevalent in breast cancer patients before (27.0%), during (32.5%) and after (39.2%) chemotherapy, with 37.4%, 41.9% and 52.6% of participants, respectively, reporting sleeping below the recommended 7 h. Only 8.6%-15.5% of patients reported taking sedative-hypnotic drugs during the chemotherapy. Multivariate analyses found that participants reporting clinically significant anxiety (HADS > 8) were 3.5 times more likely to report sleep disturbance (PSQI > 8) than participants without clinically significant anxiety, and each increment in emotional/informational support was associated with a 9.04% reduced risk of sleep disturbance. Moreover, age was an independent predictor of sleep disturbance during multivariate modelling.
