Sleep quality among patients with chronic illness in Ethiopia: systematic review and meta-analysis. Front Psychiatry 2024; 15:1365463. [PMID: 38881551 PMCID: PMC11177758 DOI: 10.3389/fpsyt.2024.1365463] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/16/2024] [Indexed: 06/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Poor sleep quality impedes the progression of chronic illnesses, while chronic illnesses themselves are caused by poor sleep quality. Despite this fact, there is no research that has been conducted in Ethiopia that provides a thorough estimate of the self-reported sleep quality among patients with chronic illnesses. In order to present a complete picture of poor sleep quality among diabetes, hypertension, heart failure, cancer, HIV/AIDS and epilepsy patients, this systematic review and meta-analysis was carried out. Methods Systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to estimate the quality of sleep among patients with chronic illness in Ethiopia. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta Analysis standard was followed in the reporting of this systematic review and meta-analysis. An extensive exploration of digital repositories, including PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane, Africa Journal of Online, Google Scholar, and an advanced Google search, was conducted to obtain published studies until December 1st, 2023 detailing poor sleep quality of patients with chronic illness. STATA version 17 commands were used to create the pooled estimate. The I2 test and Egger's test, respectively, were used to identify the presence of heterogeneity and publication bias. To manage heterogeneity, a subgroup analysis and random effect model were used. Results A total 21 articles with a total of 7393 participants were included in the final systematic review and meta-analysis. The pooled estimate of poor sleep quality among patients with chronic illness was 52% (95% of CI: 48%, 59%; I2 = 97.26%). In subgroup analysis, the highest pooled estimate of poor sleep quality was observed in cancer patients 63% (95% CI: (95% CI: 45% - 80%). Regarding to data collection period, the highest pooled estimate of poor sleep quality was seen during spring 68% (95% CI: 42% - 94%). Conclusions Patients with chronic illnesses in Ethiopia had a high pooled estimate of poor sleep quality. Patients with cancer had the highest pooled estimate of poor-quality sleep compared with other patients. Patients with chronic illnesses had trouble sleeping in the spring, according to this systematic review and meta-analysis. Therefore, attention and intervention should be given to enhance the quality of sleep for patients with chronic illnesses.

Abstract
Increasing incidences of insomnia in adults, as well as the aging population, have been reported for their negative impact on the quality of life. Insomnia episodes may be associated with neurocognitive, musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, renal, hepatic, and metabolic disorders. Epidemiological evidence also revealed the association of insomnia with oncologic and asthmatic complications, which has been indicated as bidirectional. Two therapeutic approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and drugs-based therapies are being practiced for a long time. However, the adverse events associated with drugs limit their wide and long-term application. Further, Traditional Chinese medicine, acupressure, and pulsed magnetic field therapy may also provide therapeutic relief. Notably, the recently introduced cryotherapy has been demonstrated as a potential candidate for insomnia which could reduce pain, by suppressing oxidative stress and inflammation. It seems that the synergistic therapeutic approach of cryotherapy and the above-mentioned approaches might offer promising prospects to further improve efficacy and safety. Considering these facts, this perspective presents a comprehensive summary of recent advances in pathological aetiologies of insomnia including COVID-19, and its therapeutic management with a greater emphasis on cryotherapy.

Excessive Daytime Sleepiness and Sleep Quality and their Impact on Health-Related Quality of Life in People with Epilepsy: A study from Pakistan. Epilepsy Behav 2022; 128:108565. [PMID: 35104734 DOI: 10.1016/j.yebeh.2022.108565] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2021] [Revised: 01/05/2022] [Accepted: 01/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Epilepsy is one of the most common but manageable neurological disorder. The relation between epilepsy, sleep, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in culturally distinct environment of Pakistan remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to determine prevalence and predictors of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), poor sleep quality (SQ), and to analyze their association with HRQoL in people with epilepsy (PWE). METHODS A study was conducted among PWE attending two tertiary care hospitals of Islamabad and Rawalpindi, Pakistan. The EDS, SQ, and HRQoL were evaluated by Urdu versions of Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and Quality of Life in Epilepsy-31 (QOLIE-31). RESULTS The study included 200 PWE and 51 healthy controls with mean (SD) ages of 33.1 ± 13.9, 32.9 ± 10.9, and a disease duration of 5.01 ± 6.17, respectively. The majority of the respondents (n = 130, 65%) had poor seizure control, and most of these (n = 88, 68%) were on combination antiepileptic drug (AED) therapy. In comparison to controls, a higher number of PWE had EDS by ESS (score ≥ 11, 10% vs. 40%, p-value 0.00), and poor SQ by PSQI (score > 5, 9% vs. 71%, p-value 0.00). A multiple logistic regression analysis reveals that the factors significantly associated with EDS were: female gender; increasing age; seizure control; duration of epilepsy; and combination AED therapy. A second multiple binary logistic regression analysis suggests that factors significantly associated with poor SQ were: increasing age; female gender; poor seizure control; and combination therapy. The Hierarchical multivariate analysis suggests that poor seizure control, EDS, and poor SQ were significant predictors of low HRQoL. CONCLUSION The findings suggest high prevalence of EDS and poor SQ in PWE in Pakistan. A significant negative association exists between sleep complaints and HRQoL. During routine clinical consultations, awareness about sleep hygiene practices must be provided to enhance HRQoL.

Abstract
Background Sleep quality refers to a sense of being refreshed and rested after waking up from sleep. Postoperative patients were vulnerable to poor sleep quality due to having different contributing factors. The prevalence of poor sleep quality among postsurgical patients was left undisclosed in our study setting. Knowing the prevalence and contributing factors for poor sleep quality helps us to develop a strategic plan for prevention and management. Method and materials A multicenter cross-sectional study design was conducted on 424 postsurgical patients who were selected by a systematic random sampling method. Data was collected using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index by a face-to-face interview. Data analysis was done using SPSS version 25. For categorical data, a chi-square test was done. Bivariable and multivariable analyses were performed to determine whether each of the independent variables is associated with the outcome variable. Result Based on this study result, the prevalence of poor sleep quality was 64.9%. Among the factors included in this study, variables which had an association with poor postoperative sleep quality were age range 25–54 years (AOR = 15.13), male gender (AOR = 4.81), educational level of secondary school (AOR = 6.29), patient income less than 2500 birr (AOR = 3.77), anxiety (AOR = 2.53), depression(AOR = 22.8), light exposure(AOR = 19.60), poor social support (AOR = 1.98), being emergency surgery (AOR = 2.46) and having a history of moderate to severe pain (AOR = 38.18, (95% CI). Conclusion Poor sleep quality among adult post-surgical patients was significantly high in Amhara regional comprehensive referral hospitals. Therefore; Clinicians need to prioritize postoperative sleep quality assessment and needs to minimize factors inducing postoperative sleep disturbances. The prevalence of postoperative poor sleep quality was 64.9%. Pain is associated with poor sleep qualities. Postoperative sleep quality was poorly managed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Globally, epilepsy is the commonest neurological disorder in adults. It has significant health and economic consequences to the affected individuals and the family. There is ample evidence that epileptic patients are at increased risk of poor sleep quality than the general population. However, there is limited evidence on sleep quality among epileptic patients and associated factors in Ethiopia. Therefore, this study investigated the prevalence of poor sleep quality and associated factors among adult patients with epilepsy. METHOD Institutional based cross-sectional study was conducted among adult epileptic patients attending follow-up care at referral hospitals in the Amhara region. A total of 575 epileptic patients were recruited using a stratified systematic random sampling technique. An interviewer-administered semi-structured questionnaire and record review were used for data collection. To assess sleep quality the pretested Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) tool was used. A binary logistic regression model was used to assess factors associated with poor sleep quality. Variables with a p-value less than 0.2 in the bivariable binary logistic regression analysis were considered for the multivariable binary logistic regression analysis. In the multivariable binary logistic regression analysis, the Adjusted Odds Ratio (AOR) with the 95% Confidence Interval (CI) were reported to declare the statistical significance and strength of association. Model fitness was assessed using the Hosmer-Lemeshow test and was adequate (p>0.05). Multicollinearity of the independent variables was assessed using the Variance Inflation Factor (VIF) and the mean VIF was less than 10. RESULTS A total of 565 participants were enrolled in the study with a response rate of 98.3%. The prevalence of poor sleep quality among adult epileptic patients was 68.8% [95% CI: 64.8%, 72.5%]. In the multivariable binary logistic regression, being unable to read and write [AOR = 3.16, 95%CI: 1.53, 6.51], taking polytherapy treatment [AOR = 2.10, 95% CI: 1.37, 3.21], poor medication adherence [AOR = 2.53, 95%CI: 1.02, 6.23] and having poor support [AOR = 2.72, 95%CI: 1.53, 4.82] and moderate social support [AOR = 1.89, 95%CI: 1.05, 3.41] were significantly associated with higher odds of poor sleep quality. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION Poor sleep quality is a major public health concern in Ethiopia. The patient's level of education, number of medication use, medication adherence, and social support were found significant predictors of poor sleep quality. These findings highlight improving medication adherence and social support are effective strategies to improve the sleep quality of epileptic patients. Besides, it is better to give special emphasis to those epileptic patients with a low level of education and taking polytherapy to enhance sleep quality.
