Maternal sleep disturbances during late pregnancy and child neuropsychological and behavioral development in early childhood. Eur Child Adolesc Psychiatry 2023; 32:2139-2150. [PMID: 35927528 DOI: 10.1007/s00787-022-02053-z] [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: 10/29/2021] [Accepted: 07/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
The present study aims to explore the association of maternal sleep disturbances during late pregnancy on child neuropsychological and behavioral development in preschool years. The study included 638 mother-child pairs from the prospective Rhea mother-child cohort in Crete, Greece. Information on antenatal sleep disturbances was collected through a computer-assisted interview. Children's neuropsychological and behavioral development was assessed using the McCarthy Scales of Children's Abilities (MSCA), the Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Test (ADHDT), and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). Multivariate analysis showed that maternal sleep duration less than 8 h was associated with reduced scores in the general cognitive scale (β = -2.28, 95% CI -4.54, -0.02, R2 = 0.417) and memory span (β = -3.24, 95% CI -5.72, -0.77, R2 = 0.304), while mild-severe daytime sleepiness was associated with reduced scores in the memory scale (β = -5.42, 95% CI -10.47, -0.37, R2 = 0.304), memory span (β = -5.44, 95% CI -10.68, -0.21, R2 = 0.304), nd functions of posterior cortex (β = -5.55, 95% CI -10.40, -0.70, R2 = 0.393) of MSCA. Snoring in late pregnancy was related to higher child hyperactivity scores in SDQ (β = 1.05, 95% CI 0.16, 1.95, R2 = 0.160). An interaction between child sex and maternal sleep duration in response to ADHD symptoms was also found (p for interaction < 0.05). Stratified analysis revealed increased hyperactivity, inattention, and ADHD total scores for girls of mothers with sleep duration less than 8 h. Maternal sleep disturbances during pregnancy may be associated with impaired child neuropsychological and behavioral development during the preschool years. Early detection and intervention is necessary to reduce sleep disturbances habits in pregnancy and improve child neurodevelopment.

Prenatal sleep health and risk of offspring ADHD symptomatology and associated phenotypes: a prospective analysis of timing and sex differences in the ECHO cohort. LANCET REGIONAL HEALTH. AMERICAS 2023; 27:100609. [PMID: 38106969 PMCID: PMC10725065 DOI: 10.1016/j.lana.2023.100609] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2023] [Revised: 09/12/2023] [Accepted: 09/21/2023] [Indexed: 12/19/2023]
Abstract
Background Sleep difficulties are common in pregnancy, yet poor prenatal sleep may be related to negative long-term outcomes for the offspring, including risk for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Existing studies are few and have not examined timing of exposure effects or offspring sex moderation. We thus aimed to test the hypotheses that poor sleep health in pregnancy is associated with increased risk for ADHD symptoms and offspring sleep problems at approximately 4 years of age. Methods Participants were 794 mother-child dyads enrolled in the NIH Environmental Influences on Child Health Outcomes Study (ECHO). Participants self-reported on sleep duration, quality, and disturbances during pregnancy and on children's ADHD symptoms and sleep problems on the Child Behaviour Checklist. Findings Pregnant participants were 32.30 ± 5.50 years and children were 46% female. 44 percent of pregnant participants identified as Hispanic or Latine; 49% identified as White. Second-trimester sleep duration was associated with offspring ADHD symptoms (b = -0.35 [95% CI = -0.57, -0.13], p = 0.026), such that shorter duration was associated with greater symptomatology. Poorer sleep quality in the second trimester was also associated with increased ADHD symptomatology (b = 0.66 [95% CI = 0.18, 1.14], p = 0.037). Greater sleep disturbances in the first trimester were associated with offspring ADHD (b = 1.03 [95% CI = 0.32, 1.03], p = 0.037) and in the second trimester with sleep problems (b = 1.53 [95% CI = 0.42, 2.92], p = 0.026). We did not document substantial offspring sex moderation. Interpretation Poor prenatal sleep health, particularly quality and duration in the second trimester, may be associated with offspring risk of neurodevelopmental disorders and sleep problems in early childhood. Further research is needed to understand mechanisms, yet our study suggests that prenatal maternal sleep may be a modifiable target for interventions aimed at optimizing early neurodevelopment.

Adverse effects of inadequate sleep duration patterns during pregnancy on toddlers suspected developmental delay: A longitudinal study. Sleep Med 2023; 105:68-77. [PMID: 36966578 DOI: 10.1016/j.sleep.2023.02.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2021] [Revised: 01/30/2023] [Accepted: 02/24/2023] [Indexed: 03/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although studies have reported the effects of inadequate sleep on maternal health, few have examined the relationships of maternal sleep patterns with fetal health and early childhood development. This study investigated maternal sleep duration patterns from early pregnancy to 3-years postpartum and their effects on birth outcomes and child development. METHODS This study recruited pregnant women and their partners during prenatal visits at five selected hospitals in the Taipei area; follow-up lasted from July 2011 to April 2021. A total of 1178 parents completed self-reported assessments from early pregnancy until childbirth and 544 completed eight assessments up to 3-years postpartum. Generalized estimated equation models were used for analyses. RESULTS Group-based trajectory modeling was used to identify four trajectories of sleep duration patterns. Although maternal sleep duration was not associated with birth outcomes, maternal "short decreasing" and "stably short" sleep patterns were associated with a higher risk of suspected overall developmental delay and language developmental delay, respectively. Furthermore, an "extremely long decreasing" pattern was associated with a higher risk of suspected overall developmental delay, [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 2.97, 95% confidence interval (CI):1.39-6.36)], gross motor delay, (aOR = 3.14, 95% CI: 1.42-6.99) and language developmental delay (aOR = 4.59, 95% CI:1.62-13.00). The results were significant for the children of multiparous women. CONCLUSIONS We identified a U-shaped distribution of risk between offspring developmental delay and maternal prenatal sleep duration, with the highest risk levels on both ends of the maternal prenatal sleep duration pattern. Interventions for maternal sleep are relatively straightforward to implement and should thus be a key part of standard prenatal care.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE/BACKGROUND Orexin has been shown to regulate the sleep-wake cycle, and it may play a major role in the pathogenesis of sleep disorders; however, its role in sleep disorders in pregnant women remains unclear. We aimed to assess the relationship between serum orexin-A (OXA) levels and sleep quality in pregnant women. PATIENTS/METHODS This study comprised 214 enrolled pregnant women (poor sleep quality, n = 125; no poor sleep quality, n = 89). We assessed participants' sleep quality and depression and anxiety levels. OXA levels were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS Women in the poor sleep quality group showed higher serum OXA levels (0.33[0.3] vs. 0.27[0.11], P < 0.001) than those in the no poor sleep quality group. Binary regression analysis showed that the higher the OXA levels (odds ratio [OR] 1.385, 95% CI [confidence interval] 1.160-1.655) and Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale scores (OR 1.073, 95% CI 1.009-1.140), the greater the risk of sleep quality in pregnant women. First-trimester OXA levels differed significantly from those in the second and third trimesters (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Serum OXA levels were higher in pregnant women with poor sleep quality than in those without poor sleep quality. OXA levels were also higher in the second and third trimesters than in the first trimester.

Abstract
AIMS We aimed to explore the mediating role of plasma retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) in the relationship between sleep quality and insulin resistance (IR) among pregnant women. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study including 263 pregnant women in the first trimester. Sleep quality was evaluated by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). The ELISA and homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) was used to analyze plasma RBP4 and estimate IR. The mediating model was used to analyze the mediating role of RBP4 in the relationship between PSQI score and IR. RESULTS In the multivariable linear regression model, the three terms were positively related with each other, PSQI score was positively associated with IR levels (β = 0.55, p < 0.05). In the mediating model, RBP4 levels mediated completely the relationship between PSQI scores and IR levels (β = 0.29, p < 0.0001). The indirect effect of RBP4 in the relation between sleep quality and IR explained 89.10% of total effect. CONCLUSIONS RPB4 may play a complete mediating role in the relation between sleep quality and insulin resistance in early pregnancy. Improvements in sleep quality in the first trimester may provide a pathway to reduce plasma RBP4, which is beneficial for less IR and GDM prevention.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We aimed to assess the prevalence of poor sleep quality during early pregnancy and its risk factors, and to explore the association between sleep quality and adverse pregnancy outcomes. METHODS This was a prospective birth cohort study that included 4352 pregnant women. Sleep quality were assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). The risk factors for poor sleep quality were analyzed by a logistic regression model. Log-binomial regression models were used to analyze the association between sleep quality and pregnancy outcomes. RESULTS The prevalence of maternal poor sleep quality during early pregnancy was 34.14%. The multivariate logistic model showed that stillbirth history (OR = 2.45; 95% CI: 1.34, 4.47), history of induced abortion (OR = 1.26; 95% CI: 1.07, 1.49), general health-related quality of life (OR = 3.98; 95% CI: 2.97, 5.34), insufficient physical activity (OR = 1.18; 95% CI: 1.03, 1.36), smoking (OR = 1.59; 95% CI: 1.18, 2.15), and vegetarian (OR = 2.18; 95% CI: 1.54, 3.08) were risk factors for poor sleep quality, while taking folic acid consistently before pregnancy (OR = 0.83; 95% CI: 0.72,0.97) was the protective factor. After controlling for all the confounders, poor sleep quality during early pregnancy increased the risk of premature rupture of membranes by 12% (95% CI: 1.00, 1.25). CONCLUSION Pregnant women with a history of stillbirth and induced abortion, general health-related quality of life, insufficient physical activity, smoking, and a vegetarian diet tended to have poor sleep quality. More attention should be paid to healthy lifestyle of pregnant women to improve sleep quality and better pregnancy outcomes.

Abstract
AIMS As cohort studies of the impact of sleep duration during early pregnancy on gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are lacking, our study aimed to explore the association between sleep duration in the first trimester and GDM in one region of mainland China. METHODS For this prospective cohort study, sleep duration data were collected from 3692 pregnant women at the first prenatal care appointment before 14 weeks of gestation. Multivariable log-binomial regression models were used to analyze the association of sleep duration with GDM after adjusting for demographic characteristics, health status (such as family history of diabetes, history of GDM, prepregnancy body mass index, gestational weight gain) and lifestyle habits (such as physical activity, dietary intakes). RESULTS Our cohort included 166 (4.5%) short sleepers and 505 (14%) long sleepers. Shorter sleep duration was more likely to be observed in women aged ≥35 years who were multiparous, and had previous pregnancy, insufficient gestational weight gain, engaged in more vigorous physical activity, drank alcohol, were vegan and/or never took folic-acid supplements. Compared with normal sleepers (29%), the prevalence of GDM was significantly higher in short sleepers (38%; P = 0.01), but not in long sleepers (31%; P = 0.224). In the multivariable model, women with short sleep durations during early pregnancy had a 32% greater risk of GDM [adjusted risk ratio (aRR): 1.32, 95% CI: 1.06-1.63], whereas long sleepers did not (aRR: 1.09, 95% CI: 0.94-1.26). CONCLUSION Short sleep duration during early pregnancy is associated with an increased risk of GDM. This suggests that more attention should be paid to controlling the development of GDM in pregnant women with insufficient sleep.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Animal studies suggested that maternal sleep during pregnancy was associated with sleep pattern in offspring; however, it has not been clear in human populations. AIM Our study discusses the relationships of maternal sleep duration with sleep characteristics in their offspring through an epidemiological study. METHODS A retrospective cross-sectional study including 6236 mother-child dyads was conducted in 31 preschools in May 2019, in Shanghai, China. Information regarding maternal sleep duration in three trimesters of pregnancy was collected retrospectively. Children's current sleep characteristics were evaluated through the Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ). Linear regressions and logistic regression models were applied to estimate β and adjusted odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). RESULTS Maternal sleep duration was positively associated with childhood sleep duration, which was shown in the first (β=0.113), second (β=0.131), and third trimesters (β=0.088). Meanwhile, insufficient maternal sleep duration could increase the risk of children's short sleep duration (first trimester: AOR=1.25; second trimester: AOR=1.33; third trimester: AOR=1.33). Maternal sleep duration was also associated with childhood CSHQ score: β=-0.308, -0.392, and -0.300 for the first, second, and third trimesters, respectively. Similarly, insufficient maternal sleep duration could predict childhood sleep disturbance as AOR=1.28 in the second trimester and AOR=1.26 in the third trimester. CONCLUSION Our findings established a relationship between maternal sleep during pregnancy and their children's sleep pattern through a population-based epidemiology study. Poor childhood sleep was found when their mother experienced less sleep duration during pregnancy, especially in the second and third trimesters.

BACKGROUND During pregnancy, the Epworth Sleepiness Scale can be used as a surrogate marker for maternal sleep-disordered breathing, a condition that is becoming increasingly prevalent in obstetric populations and is associated with a multitude of pregnancy complications. AIMS The aim of this observational study was to investigate the relationship between the Epworth Sleepiness Scale score and indication and mode of delivery during pregnancy. MATERIALS AND METHODS The Epworth Sleepiness Scale was completed by 178 women at Mater Mothers' Hospital, Brisbane, Australia. RESULTS Women with a score ≥11 were less likely to achieve a spontaneous vaginal delivery (aOR 0.43, 95% CI 0.21-0.88, P = 0.02), and were more likely to have an instrumental (aOR 2.81, 95% CI 1.30-6.08, P = 0.01) or any operative birth (instrumental and caesarean section aOR 2.32, 95% CI 1.14-4.71, P = 0.02). These women were also more likely to have an operative birth for intrapartum fetal compromise (aOR 2.62, 95% CI 1.21-5.69, P = 0.015), as well as an infant with poor neonatal outcomes (aOR 2.77, 95% CI 1.09-7.03, P = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS These results show that symptoms of sleep-disordered breathing are associated with emergency operative birth, particularly when the indication for operative birth was intrapartum fetal compromise.
