Oliveira RL, Freitas RL, Duarte YAO, Santos JLF, Bof de Andrade F. Longitudinal association of sleep quality with physical performance measures: SABE cohort study, Brazil. Public Health 2024; 235:56-62. [PMID: 39047526 DOI: 10.1016/j.puhe.2024.06.029] [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: 02/15/2024] [Revised: 05/20/2024] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the longitudinal association of sleep with physical performance in a representative sample of non-institutionalised older adults residing in the municipality of São Paulo, Brazil. STUDY DESIGN Prospective cohort study. METHODS The current longitudinal study used data extracted from the Health, Well-being, and Aging Study (Estudo Saúde Bem-Estar e Envelhecimento [SABE]). The study population consisted of individuals aged ≥60 years who participated in the study in 2010 or 2015. Dependent variables included the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) and gait speed. Independent variables of interest were self-reported sleep difficulty, daytime sleepiness and sleep quality. The longitudinal association between sleep variables and the outcomes was evaluated using Generalised Estimating Equations (GEE) Models adjusted for covariates. All the variables, except age, sex and schooling, were assessed at baseline and follow-up visits (2010 and 2015). RESULTS The analyses included 2205 observations from 1559 individuals. The population mean age was 72 years in 2010 and 71 years in 2015, with a higher prevalence of women in both years. Between 2010 and 2015, there was a decline in the SPPB score and gait speed. Daytime sleepiness was negatively associated with the SPPB score [Coef.: -0.38 (95% confidence interval {CI}: -0.56, -0.21)] and gait speed [Coef.: -0.03 (95% CI: -0.05, -0.01)]. Poor sleep quality was negatively associated with the SPPB score [Coef.: -0.29 (95% CI: -0.57, -0.01)] and gait speed [Coef.: -0.03 (95% CI: -0.06, -0.00)]. CONCLUSIONS Daytime sleepiness and poor sleep quality are associated with compromised physical performance in non-institutionalised older adults, and this association remained consistent over time.

Abstract
PURPOSE Physical disabilities may exacerbate the natural decline in sleep quality that occurs with aging. In the current study, we assessed sleep quality and medicinal sleep aid use among 87 community-dwelling older adults with (n = 24) and without (n = 63) physical disabilities. METHOD Sleep quality, duration, and efficiency were assessed subjectively with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Sleep duration and efficiency were objectively measured with actigraphy. Participants self-reported medicinal sleep aid use. RESULTS Significant group differences were observed in sleep duration measured objectively (p = 0.01) and subjectively (p = 0.04). No other group differences were observed for sleep factors (p > 0.05) or medicinal sleep aid use (p = 0.41). CONCLUSION Findings show that physical disability may be a factor in sleep duration; however, physical disability was not found to be associated with worsened sleep perception or greater reliance on medicinal sleep aids. Future research should consider longer objective actigraphy assessment windows and explore potential subgroup differences in sex and race/ethnicity.

Psychogeriatrics 2024; 24:789-801. [PMID: 38576075 DOI: 10.1111/psyg.13120] [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: 11/13/2023] [Revised: 03/15/2024] [Accepted: 03/19/2024] [Indexed: 04/06/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Most studies on later-life health in India focus on families, with far less attention given to the health repercussions of neighbourhood conditions among older Indians. We address this limitation in existing research by examining the associations between perceptions of neighbourhood safety and social cohesion and sleep duration and sleep quality among older adults in India. METHODS Data come from the Study on Global Aging and Adult Health (WHO-SAGE), India 2015 wave 2, with a sample of 7118 adults aged 50 years and above. Sleep quality and duration were assessed using subjective responses. Multivariable logistic and linear regression analyses were employed to test the research hypotheses. RESULTS Prevalence of poor sleep quality was higher among older adults living in unsafe neighbourhoods (4.46%) than peers residing in safe neighbourhoods (3.52%), and it was also higher among those living in neighbourhoods with poor social cohesion (5.31%) than counterparts who lived in socially cohesive communities (3.10%). Older adults in neighbourhoods with poor social cohesion had higher odds of reporting compromised sleep quality (adjusted odds ratio 1.75, CI: 1.22-2.51) than those living in socially cohesive neighbourhoods. Moreover, compared to those who perceived they were living in safe neighbourhoods, their peers who perceived their neighbourhoods as unsafe reported shorter sleep duration, with a negative beta coefficient of -0.27 (CI: -0.45 to -0.085). CONCLUSION That perceived unsafety and poor social cohesion within one's neighbourhood are associated with compromised sleep reflects the significance of making neighbourhoods safer and more integrated for later-life sleep health. In addition to micro-level strategies (e.g., balanced nutrition and physical activity), efforts to improve sleep health should optimise macro-level opportunities, such as rehabilitating and revitalising neighbourhoods, which may alleviate sleep disturbances and improve sleep outcomes among older adults.

Estimating the Effect of Engagement in Community-Based Going-Out Program on Incidence Disability in Older Adults. J Am Med Dir Assoc 2024; 25:104973. [PMID: 38569560 DOI: 10.1016/j.jamda.2024.02.011] [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: 09/29/2023] [Revised: 02/14/2024] [Accepted: 02/20/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Although going out has been reported to be associated with the incidence of disability, few studies have investigated the effect of community-based programs to promote going out on the incidence of disability. This study aimed to estimate the effects of a program fostering going-out on the incidence of disability in community-dwelling older adults. DESIGN Longitudinal, observational study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS Nonengaged (n = 1086) and engaged older adults (n = 1086) enrolled in the National Center for Geriatrics and Gerontology Study of Geriatric Syndrome by using a one-to-one nearest neighbor propensity score-matching scheme. METHODS After the baseline assessments, participants in the community-based going-out program received a specialized physical activity tracker, monitored their daily physical activity, and received personalized feedback on going out to community facilities with a system for reading the device for 12 months. Disability onset was defined as a new case of long-term care under the public insurance certification in Japan within 48 months of program completion. The absolute risk reduction and the number needed to treat for the incidence of disability were calculated for the nonengaged and engaged groups. Cox proportional hazard regression analysis, using inverse probability weighting was used to obtain the hazard ratio. RESULTS Disabilities occurred in 112 individuals in the matched nonengaged group and 51 individuals in the engaged group. The absolute risk reduction was 5.67% (95% CI 3.46%-7.88%). The number needed to treat was 18 (95% CI 13-29). The hazard ratio, with the nonengaged group as the reference, was 0.49 (95% CI 0.36-0.67). CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS This longitudinal observational study suggested that a community-based program could prevent 1 disability in every 18 participants. This program does not require a professional instructor, only the distribution of devices and system installation, and it could be beneficial as a population-based approach to preventing disabilities.

Abstract
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES To compare the effectiveness of non-pharmacological interventions in enhancing sleep quality in older people. BACKGROUND Sleep problems in older adults have become increasingly prominent. Sleep problems not only affect the health and quality of life of older people, but also the range of chronic diseases caused by sleep problems also impose a huge burden on social services and health care. Non-pharmacological interventions are an effective alternative to pharmacological therapies, but it is unclear which non-pharmacological therapies are most effective in enhancing sleep quality in older adults. DESIGN A systematic review and network meta-analysis based on PRISMA-NMA. METHODS A total of seven databases were searched from the establishment of the database to March 2023. After literature screening and data extraction, the Cochrane Bias assessment tool 2.0 version of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) was used to evaluate literature quality. A network meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the relative efficacy of the non-pharmacological interventions on sleep quality. RESULTS A total of 71 RCTs involving nine non-pharmacological interventions were included. The results of the network meta-analysis showed that the joint intervention may be the most effective non-pharmacological intervention to enhance sleep quality in older adults. CONCLUSION This study confirms that non-pharmacological interventions can improve sleep quality in older adults. The use of non-pharmacological interventions can be promoted by healthcare professionals in the future to improve the quality of sleep and thus the physical and mental health of older people. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE This evidence suggests that joint interventions may be most effective. Therefore, in the future, a combination of non-pharmacological interventions could be used to maximise their effectiveness in improving sleep quality in older people and promoting healthy aging. NO PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION No patient or public contribution is not applicable to this study.

Abstract
To examine cross-sectional and longitudinal relationships of psychotropic medications with physical function after menopause. Analyses involved 4557 Women's Health Initiative Long Life Study (WHI-LLS) participants (mean age at WHI enrollment (1993-1998): 62.8 years). Antidepressant, anxiolytic, and sedative/hypnotic medications were evaluated at WHI enrollment and 3-year follow-up visits. Performance-based physical function [Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB)] was assessed at the 2012-2013 WHI-LLS visit. Self-reported physical function [RAND-36] was examined at WHI enrollment and the last available follow-up visit-an average of 22 [±2.8] (range: 12-27) years post-enrollment. Multivariable regression models controlled for socio-demographic, lifestyle, and health characteristics. Anxiolytics were not related to physical function. At WHI enrollment, antidepressant use was cross-sectionally related to worse self-reported physical function defined as a continuous (β = -6.27, 95% confidence interval [CI]: -8.48, -4.07) or as a categorical (< 78 vs. ≥ 78) (odds ratio [OR] = 2.10, 95% CI: 1.48, 2.98) outcome. Antidepressant use at WHI enrollment was also associated with worse performance-based physical function (SPPB) [< 10 vs. ≥ 10] (OR = 1.53, 95% CI: 1.05, 2.21) at the 2012-2013 WHI-LLS visit. Compared to non-users, those using sedative/hypnotics at WHI enrollment but not at the 3-year follow-up visit reported a faster decline in physical function between WHI enrollment and follow-up visits. Among postmenopausal women, antidepressant use was cross-sectionally related to worse self-reported physical function, and with worse performance-based physical function after > 20 years of follow-up. Complex relationships found for hypnotic/sedatives were unexpected and necessitate further investigation.

Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to evaluate the association of sleep quality and its long-term change with the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and to assess the relationship between sleep duration and the risk of T2DM according to categories of sleep quality. MATERIALS AND METHODS 5728 participants free of T2DM at wave 4 from the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing were included and received a follow-up with a median time of 8 years. We created a sleep quality score to evaluate sleep quality, which was based on three Jenkins Sleep Problems Scale questions (the frequency of feeling hard to fall asleep, waking up at night, and feeling tired in the morning) and one question for rating overall sleep quality. Participants were allocated into three groups according to their baseline sleep quality scores (groups of good [4-8], intermediate [8-12], and poor quality [12-16]). Sleep duration was assessed by a self-reporting sleep hours from each participant. RESULTS 411 (7.2%) T2DM cases were documented during the follow-up. Compared with the good quality group, subjects with poor sleep quality showed a significantly higher risk of T2DM (hazard ratio (HR) 1.45, confidence interval (CI) 1.09, 1.92). In participants with good baseline sleep quality, those who experienced worsened sleep quality showed a significantly increased T2DM risk (HR 1.77, 95% CI 1.26, 2.49). Type 2 diabetes mellitus risk was not changed regardless of sleep duration in subjects with good quality. Short sleep duration (≤4h) was associated with an elevated T2DM risk in participants with intermediate sleep quality, and both short (≤4h) and prolonged sleep time (≥9h) were associated with an increased T2DM risk in the poor sleep quality group. CONCLUSIONS Poor sleep quality is correlated with an increase in T2DM risk, and regulating sleep quality to a good range could potentially be an effective approach for preventing T2DM.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study focused on middle-aged and elderly adults (mean age ≥60 years) in England and aimed to evaluate the impact of sleep quality and change in sleep quality on the long-term risk of stroke. PATIENTS/METHODS The current prospective study enrolled 6214 participants without stroke from wave 4 (2008-2009) of the English Longitudinal Study Aging (ELSA) dataset. From the ELSA questionnaires, sleep quality scores were calculated and used to evaluate the sleep quality of each participant. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to assess the association between sleep status and stroke risk. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) was employed for the relationship between sleep quality score and the risk of stroke. RESULTS During the 8-year follow-up, 130 (2.1%) cases of stroke were recorded. Participants with poor baseline sleep quality had a significantly higher long-term risk of stroke compared with those with good sleep quality (hazard ratio [HR] 2.37, 95% confidence intervals [CI] 1.44, 3.91). For the influence of change in sleep quality on stroke risk, worsened sleep quality was associated with a significant increase in the risk of stroke in the good (HR 2.08, 95% CI, 1.02, 4.26) and intermediate sleep quality groups (HR 2.15, 95% CI, 1.16, 3.98). Moreover, improved sleep quality decreased stroke risk among subjects with poor sleep quality (HR 0.31, 95% CI, 0.15, 0.61). CONCLUSIONS Poor and worsened sleep quality is associated with an increased risk of stroke. Emphasis should be placed on improving sleep quality in middle-aged and elderly individuals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND With aging, body mass index (BMI) increases and muscle strength declines, resulting in dynapenic obesity. It remains unknown whether and how sleep duration contributes to the sequence of BMI and muscle strength change in the progression of dynapenic obesity. METHODS Data were derived from the first two waves of China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. Sleep duration was self-reported. BMI was calculated and grip strength (GS) was measured to reflect muscle strength. The effect of baseline sleep duration on the sequential change of BMI and GS was assessed using two mediation models considering the nonlinear associations between them. The moderating effect of metabolic disorder was also tested. RESULTS Totally 4986 participants aged ≥ 50 years (50.8% females) with complete information on variables were included. Baseline BMI fully mediated the nonlinear association between sleep duration and follow-up GS change, but baseline GS did not mediate between sleep duration and follow-up BMI change for older men and women. Short sleep duration positively affected BMI-induced GS change (β = 0.038; 95%CI, 0.015-0.074), while this favorable effect became nonsignificant for moderate sleep duration (β = 0.008; 95% CI, -0.003-0.024) and turned negative with prolonged sleep duration (β = - 0.022; 95%CI, - 0.051 to - 0.003). This nonlinear mediation effect was more pronounced in older women who are relatively metabolically healthy at baseline. CONCLUSION For older adults in China, the influence of sleep duration on BMI-induced GS change but not the GS-induced BMI change suggested the contribution of sleep duration to the sequential course in the progression of dynapenic obesity. Sleep duration deviated either above or below normal range may confer adverse impact on GS through BMI. Strategies addressing sleep and obesity jointly to improve muscle function and delay the progression of dynapenic obesity are required.

Abstract
Background
Psoriasis is associated with several comorbidities and different psychological disorders including anxiety and depression. Psoriasis may also affect sleep quality and consequently the quality of life. The use of immunosuppressants used in the treatment of psoriasis were also reported to increase insomnia, so the purpose of the study is to assess the quality of sleep and degree of insomnia in patients with psoriasis not on any systemic or immunosuppressive therapy compared to controls and to examine the relation between sleep quality, insomnia with depressive, and anxiety symptoms. One hundred psoriasis cases, not receiving immunosuppressive therapy, and 80 apparently healthy subjects were recruited as controls. We assessed quality of sleep, insomnia and screened for anxiety and depressive symptoms among psoriasis patients and healthy controls; any patient on immunosuppressant therapy was excluded.
Results
Quality of sleep using Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, insomnia using Insomnia Severity Index, depression using Beck Depression Inventory, and anxiety using Taylor Anxiety Manifest Scale were statistically significant higher among psoriasis patients than healthy controls all with p value p < 0.001. Depressive symptoms were significantly positively correlated with Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) global score (p = 0.045) and subjective sleep quality subscale (p = 0.005). Also, BDI scores was significantly positively correlated with insomnia scores as measured by ISI (p = 0.026).
Anxiety symptoms were significantly positively correlated with global score of PSQI (p = 0.004) and its subscale (subjective sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep disturbance, use of medications and daytime dysfunction) and insomnia (p = 0.001).
Conclusions
Abnormal sleep quality and insomnia were detected in patients with psoriasis not using any immunosuppressive or systemic therapy, and this could be due to the psoriasis disease itself or due to the associated anxiety and depression associated with psoriasis. Screening for psychiatric symptoms specially that of depression, anxiety, and sleep among patients with psoriasis is of utmost importance for better quality of life. Thus, collaboration between dermatologists and psychiatrists may show better life quality for these cases and better treatment outcomes.

Abstract
Study objectives Poor sleep quality, a frequent problem in older adults, has been shown to be associated with reduced physical function and wellbeing. However, little is known about the relationship between sleep quality and the recovery of physical function following hospitalization. Thus, we conducted this study to examine the association between sleep quality and functional recovery after an acute hospitalization in community dwelling older adults. Methods Older adult patients (N = 23, mean age = 74 ± 9 years) were recruited during an acute hospitalization (average length of stay 3.9 days) with a cardiovascular (56%), pulmonary (22%), or metabolic (13%) admission diagnosis. Objective physical function was measured using the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) and self-reported function was assessed with Katz Index of Independence in Activities of Daily Living (ADL) and Lawton Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale (IADL). Sleep quality was measured using Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) global score and Iowa Fatigue Score (IFS). Testing was performed prior to discharge (baseline) and 4-weeks post-discharge (follow-up). Results Regression models showed PSQI Subjective Sleep Quality change scores from baseline to 4-week follow-up predicted a change in ADL (β = -0.22); PSQI Use of Sleep Medications change scores predicted a change in SPPB Total (β = 1.62) and SPPB Chair Stand (β = 0.63); IFS change scores predicted SPPB Total (β = -0.16) and SPPB Chair Stand performance (β = -0.07) change scores. Conclusions For older adults, changes in sleep medication use, daytime dysfunction, and fatigue were associated with improvements in functional recovery (including physical performance and independence) from acute hospitalization to 4-week follow-up. These results suggest that interventions focused on improving sleep quality, daytime consequences, and fatigue might help enhance physical functioning following hospitalization.

Abstract
To determine the prevalence of sleep disturbance during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic among US adults who are more vulnerable to complications because of age and co-morbid conditions, and to identify associated sociodemographic and psychosocial factors. Cross-sectional survey linked to 3 active clinical trials and 2 cohort studies, conducted between 11/30/2020 and 3/3/2021. Five academic internal medicine practices and 2 federally qualified health centers. A total of 715 adults ages 23 to 91 years living with one or more chronic conditions. A fifth (20%) of participants reported poor sleep. Black adults were twice as likely to report poor sleep compared to Whites. Self-reported poor physical function (51%), stress (42%), depression (28%), and anxiety (36%) were also common and all significantly associated with poor sleep. Age ≥70 years and having been vaccinated for COVID-19 were protective against poor sleep. Sex, education, income, alcohol use, and employment status were not significantly associated with sleep quality. In this diverse sample of adults with chronic conditions, by race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status, disparities in sleep health amid the ongoing pandemic were apparent. Worse physical function and mental health were associated with poor sleep and should be considered targets for health system interventions to prevent the many subsequent consequences of disturbed sleep on health outcomes. Measurements: self-reported sleep quality, physical function, stress, depression, and anxiety.

Abstract
Sleep plays a vital role in older adults' health. The Community Aging in Place-Advancing Better Living for Elders (CAPABLE) trial, conducted in Maryland between 2012 and 2016, is a 5-month biobehavioral environmental intervention study to reduce functional disabilities in 300 low-income older adults. Individual and environmental factors impacting sleep were addressed in CAPABLE. This secondary data analysis was to test the preliminary effect of CAPABLE on actigraph-measured sleep, compared with a social engagement control in 73 CAPABLE participants with pretest-posttest actigraph data. Participants in this analysis were aged 75.8±7.5 years; 86.3% of them were females and 84.9% were Black/African Americans. Both CAPABLE intervention and social engagement control improved sleep efficiency and reduced sleep onset latency. The effect of CAPABLE on sleep was comparable to social engagement. These findings underline the importance of promoting physical function and maintaining social activity for sleep in low-income older adults with disabilities.

Abstract
Low back pain (LBP) and sleep quality are two very prevalent complaints in the older population. However, little is known about the prognostic relationship between sleep quality and disability in older adults with LBP. The aim of this study was to examine the association between sleep quality and disability in older adults with LBP. This was a longitudinal study over a 6-month period. Older adults with LBP in the last 12 weeks and who had preserved cognitive functions were recruited. The questionnaires used were the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and the Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire. At baseline, we collected information on demographic/anthropometric variables, cognitive status, depression, daytime sleepiness, and comorbidities. Linear regression adjusted for potential covariates were performed. Poor sleep at baseline predicted higher disability after 6 months [β = 0.30 (CI95%:0.07 to 0.55)]. Our results support the existence of an important relationship between sleep and disability in older adults with LBP.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether sleep disturbances vary along a continuum of functional limitations in a large nationally representative sample of US adults. METHODS Using 2014-2015 National Health Interview Survey data (n = 33,424), we considered associations between each of 5 sleep disturbance measures (duration, trouble falling asleep, trouble staying asleep, use of sleep medications, waking rested) and Functional Limitations Index score, which distinguishes among adults with little-or-no (least-limited), moderate (somewhat-limited), and high functional limitations (most-limited). RESULTS Somewhat-limited and most-limited respondents reported significantly worse sleep health for all sleep disturbance measures than people with little-or-no limitations, even controlling for body mass index, psychological distress, and 14 health indicators. CONCLUSIONS People with significant self-reported limitations in physical functioning, independent of specific disabilities or disabling condition, report more sleep disturbances. Clinicians may want to evaluate the sleep health of patients with functional limitations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Frailty is a geriatric syndrome that entails high risk of hospitalization, disability, and death. While adherence to Mediterranean diet has been associated with lower risk of frailty, the joint effect of diet and lifestyle is uncertain. This study examined the association between a Mediterranean lifestyle (diet, customs, and traditions) and frailty incidence in older adults. METHODS We analyzed data from 1,880 individuals aged ≥ 60 from the prospective Seniors-ENRICA-1 cohort. Adherence to the Mediterranean lifestyle was assessed at baseline with the 27-item MEDLIFE index (higher scores representing better adherence), divided into three blocks: 1) "Mediterranean food consumption", 2) "Mediterranean dietary habits" (practices around meals)" and 3) "Physical activity, rest, social habits and conviviality". Frailty was ascertained as the presence of ≥ 3 of the 5 Fried criteria: a) Exhaustion; b) Muscle weakness; c) Low physical activity; d) Slow walking speed; e) Unintentional weight loss. Main statistical analyses were performed using logistic regression models, adjusting for the main confounders. RESULTS After a 3.3-y follow-up, 136 incident frailty cases were ascertained. Compared with participants in the lowest tertile of the MEDLIFE score, the OR (95% CI) for frailty was 0.88 (0.58-1.34) for the second tertile, and 0.38 (0.21-0.69) for the third tertile (p-trend = 0.003). Blocks 1 and 3 of the MEDLIFE score were independently associated with lower frailty risk. Most items within these blocks showed a tendency to reduced frailty. CONCLUSIONS Higher adherence to a Mediterranean lifestyle was associated with lower risk of frailty.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE to analyze the relationship between the duration of self-reported night sleep and the cognitive performance of older adults. METHOD the sample consisted of 156 older adults registered in Family Health Units (FHUs) in a city of São Paulo, divided into quartiles according to the duration of night sleep. Data collection was performed using a characterization questionnaire, Addenbrooke's Cognitive Exam - Revised (ACE-R) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Descriptive, comparative and correlational statistical analyses were performed. RESULTS the older adults obtained a mean of 61.94 points in ACE-R and 55.1% presented good sleep quality. Comparative analyses showed differences between the groups only in the cognitive domain of verbal fluency (p=0.018). The post-hoc analyses showed that older adults who slept more hours, a mean of 8.85 hours (Q1), had lower scores when compared to those who slept a mean of 6.11 hours (Q3) (p=0.004) and of 4.52 hours (Q4) (p=0.045). The adjusted model with application of the stepwise method showed a relationship between the independent variables of schooling and sleep duration and the domain verbal fluency. CONCLUSION it is concluded that sleep duration is related to the verbal fluency cognitive domain.

Abstract
Research suggests that clinical management of cognitive impairment can occur through interventions targeting lifestyle factors, such as physical exercise and sleep quality. The present study examined the associations among lifestyle factors (exercise and sleep quality), cognition, and functional capacity in older adults (ages 56-94) who completed an outpatient neuropsychological evaluation (N = 356). Exercise habits and sleep quality were accessed using a self-report questionnaire and a clinical interview. Cognitive functioning was assessed using the Dementia Rating Scale-2 (DRS-2). Functional capacity was measured by the Texas Functional Living Scale (TFLS). Results indicated that physical exercise and sleep quality were positively associated with better cognitive functioning and functional capacity. Further research is needed to elucidate the relationship between lifestyle factors, cognition, and functional capacity in older adults.

METHODS A total of 10,036 participants aged ≥50 years free of cancer at baseline from the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing at wave 4 (2008) were included, and followed up until 2016. The primary endpoint was new onset physician-diagnosed cancer. Sleep quality was assessed by four questions regarding the frequency of sleep problems and overall subjective feeling of sleep quality in the last month, with higher score denoting poorer sleep quality. The multivariable Cox regression model was used to calculate hazard ratio (HR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) for incident cancer risk according to sleep quality. RESULTS At 8-year follow-up, a total of 745 (7.4%) participants developed cancer. Compared with good sleep quality at baseline, HR (95% CI) for incident cancer risk was 1.328 (1.061, 1.662) for intermediate quality, 1.586 (1.149, 2.189) for poor quality. Similarly, compared with maintaining good sleep quality in the first 4 years, HR (95% CI) for incident cancer risk was 1.615 (1.208, 2.160) for maintaining intermediate quality and 1.608 (1.043, 2.480) for maintaining poor quality. The exclusion of participants with family history of cancer or abnormal sleep duration yielded consistent results. CONCLUSIONS Poor sleep quality is positively associated with the long-term risk of developing cancer in an elderly cohort. Both medical staffs and the general public should pay more attention to improving sleep hygiene.

[PMID: 33864907 DOI: 10.1016/j.ctim.2021.102719] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2020] [Revised: 03/19/2021] [Accepted: 04/12/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Music interventions have several benefits for sleep quality. However, the effects of music interventions on sleep quality in older adults are controversial. OBJECTIVE To summarize and evaluate the efficacy of music interventions on sleep quality in older adults. METHODS The Cochrane Library, Embase, PubMed, Web of Science and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) were systematically retrieved until June 2020, updated on March 13, 2021. Both experimental and quasi-experimental studies were included if they evaluated the efficacy of music interventions on sleep outcomes in older adults. The methodological quality was assessed by the Cochrane RoB 2.0 and ROBINS-I Tool. The random effects models and effect measure (MD) were adopted, and sensitivity analysis by omitting each study was conducted to explore the source of heterogeneity. RESULTS A total of 489 participants from 9 studies met the inclusion criteria. 6 studies were included in meta-analysis and sensitivity analysis, and 3 studies were included in the qualitative analysis. Main concerns about risk of bias were lack of blinding participants and investigators, and confounding factors might exist in non-RCTs. The Post-hoc meta-analysis indicated that music interventions might have a positive effect on sleep quality [MD = -2.64, 95 % CI (-3.76, -1.53), p < 0.001; I2 = 75.0 %]. Only one study evaluated adverse events and reported zero discomfort. CONCLUSIONS The results indicated that music interventions might be beneficial for improving sleep quality, especially in sleep latency, sleep duration, sleep efficiency and sleep of daytime dysfunction in elderly individuals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep disturbances may contribute to physical function impairment among older adults. OBJECTIVE To examine the associations between sleep quality and duration and impaired physical function among older adults. METHODS Cross-sectional study involving 392 non-institutionalized adults aged ≥65 years, who were recruited from primary health care centres in Spain. Sleep quality and duration were assessed with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). The FRAIL scale was used to identify physical frailty, the short physical performance battery to assess lower extremity functional impairment (LEFI) and grip strength was measured using a hand-held dynamometer to assess muscle weakness. Statistical analyses were performed with logistic regression models adjusted for potential confounders. RESULTS Participants with poor sleep quality (PSQI global score ≥10) were more likely to have functional limitations; the odds ratio (95% confidence interval) was 2.90 (1.10-7.64) for physical frailty, 2.73 (1.34-5.58) for LEFI and 2.32 (1.14-4.75) for muscle weakness. Sleep quality components associated with frailty were sleep disturbances, use of sleeping medication and daytime dysfunction. The only quality component associated with LEFI was poor sleep efficiency, while subjective poor sleep quality and daytime dysfunction were linked to muscle weakness. No associations were observed between night-time sleep duration and physical function indicators. CONCLUSIONS Poor self-reported sleep quality, but not sleep duration, was associated with an increased frequency of physical frailty, LEFI and muscle weakness. Interventions to improve sleep quality could contribute to healthy ageing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is unclear evidence that chronic pain may increase the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) incidence and mortality. This work evaluated the association between chronic pain, incidence of CVD and changes in CVD risk factors. METHODS Cohort of 1091 community-dwelling individuals ≥60years, free from CVD at baseline, followed up for 6 years. Data on psychosocial factors and CVD risk factors was obtained through validated questionnaires and laboratory measurements. A pain scale ranging from 0 (no pain) to 6 (worst pain) was created according to pain frequency, location and intensity. RESULTS The cumulative incidence of CVD was 4.2% at 3 years, and 7.7% at 5-years of follow-up. Compared to individuals without pain in the first 3 years (2012-2015), those with maintained scores ≥2 showed a mean reduction of 3.57 (-5.77,-1.37) METs-h/week in recreational physical activity; a 0.38-point (0.04,0.73) increase in psychological distress; and a 1.79 (1.03,3.11) higher odds of poor sleep. These associations held in the second follow-up period, when individuals with maintained pain also worsened their diet quality. A 1-point increase in the pain scale in 2012 was associated with a 1.21 (1.03,1.42) and 1.18 (0.97,1.44) increased CVD incidence in 2015 and 2017, respectively; none of the studied factors mediated this relationship. CONCLUSIONS Older adults with chronic pain show important reductions in recreational physical activity and deterioration in mental health, sleep and diet quality, which may well aggravate pain. Future studies should evaluate whether these factors mediate the increased risk of CVD observed in older adults with chronic pain.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Examine the association between trajectories of self-reported insomnia symptoms and sleep duration over 13 years with objective physical function. METHODS We utilized data from 1627 Study of Women's Health Across the Nation (SWAN) participants, aged 61.9±2.7 y at the end of the 13-y follow-up. Latent class growth models identified trajectories of insomnia symptoms (trouble falling asleep, frequent night-time awakenings, and/or early-morning awakening) and sleep duration over 13 y. Physical function tests were performed at the end of the 13-y period: 40-ft walk, 4-m walk, repeated chair stand, grip strength, and balance. Multivariable regression analyses examined each physical function measure according to the insomnia symptom or sleep duration trajectory group. RESULTS Five insomnia symptom trajectories and two sleep duration trajectories were identified. Women with a consistently high likelihood of insomnia symptoms and women with a decreased likelihood of insomnia symptoms (i.e., improving) had slower gait speed (3.5% slower 40-ft walk [consistently high], 3.7% slower 4-m walk [improving]; each P≤.05) than those with a consistently low likelihood of insomnia symptoms. In contrast, women with a steep increase in the likelihood of insomnia symptoms over time and women with persistent insufficient sleep duration had lower odds of having a balance problem (odds ratio [OR]=0.36 and OR=0.61, respectively; each P<.02) compared to those with a consistently low likelihood of insomnia symptoms and those with persistent sufficient sleep duration, respectively. CONCLUSION These results suggest that women's sleep during midlife has important implications for maintaining physical function during the transition into older adulthood.

Abstract
Background: The association between sleep quality and risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) remains unclear in the elderly. Results: At eight-year follow up, a total of 411 (4.29%) participants developed CHD. Compared with good quality group, the multivariable hazard ratio [HR] (95% confidence interval [CI]) for CHD was 1.393 (1.005, 1.931) for intermediate quality group and 1.913 (1.206, 3.035) for poor quality group. Consistent results were observed in participants with normal sleep duration. Conclusions: Poor sleep quality may be a novel modifiable risk factor for CHD in the elderly independent of conventional cardiovascular risk factors, even when sleep duration was normal. Methods: The current study included 9570 CHD-free participants in the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (ELSA) from wave 4 (2008 to 2009). Incident CHD included new onset angina or myocardial infarction. Sleep quality was measured by a four-item questionnaire. Score ranged from 1 (best) to 4 (poorest). Participants were divided into three groups: good quality (1 ≤ score <2), intermediate quality (2 ≤ score <3) and poor quality (3 ≤ score ≤4). Cox regression model was used to calculate HR for CHD risk according to sleep quality, adjusted for conventional CHD risk factors and sleep duration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Impaired physical mobility, most often seen in people with neurological disorders (i.e., stroke and spinal cord injury survivors), musculoskeletal diseases or frailty, is a limitation in independent and purposeful physical movement of the body or one or more extremities. The physical restrictions result in negative consequences on an individual's physical and psychosocial functions. This proposal describes a systematic review protocol to determine the effectiveness and approaches of sitting Tai Chi intervention for individuals with impaired physical mobility. Our review would inform stakeholders' decisions in integrating this complementary therapy into current rehabilitation services. METHODS Randomized controlled trials or quasi-experimental studies that compared an intervention group receiving sitting Tai Chi with a control group among adult participants with impaired physical mobility resulting from any health condition(s) will be included. Outcomes of interest will include physical and psychosocial health outcomes. The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, MEDLINE, EMBASE, PubMed, CINAHL, Scopus, Web of Science, AMED, PsycINFO, SPORDiscus, PEDro, WanFang Data and China National Knowledge Infrastructure will be searched from their inception to January 2020. Additional searches will be performed to identify studies that are being refereed, to be published, unpublished or ongoing. Two reviewers will select the trials and extract data independently. The risk of bias of the included studies will be assessed using the Cochrane risk-of-bias tools. The Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation will be used to assess evidence quality for each review outcome. Data synthesis will be performed using Review Manager 5.3. When a meta-analysis is possible, we will assess the heterogeneity across the studies by computing the I statistics. RESULTS A high-quality synthesis of current evidence of sitting Tai Chi for impaired physical mobility will be stated from several aspect using subjective reports and objective measures of performance. CONCLUSION This protocol will present the evidence of whether sitting Tai Chi is an effective intervention for impaired physical mobility. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD 42019142681.

Abstract
Frailty affects the elderly and leads to adverse health outcomes. Preliminary evaluations have suggested that sleep quality and psychological distress are predictors of frailty among older adults. However, the mechanisms by which sleep quality affect frailty had not been fully addressed in the previous research. This study aimed to explore the mediation effect of psychological distress on the association between sleep quality and frailty among the elderly with chronic diseases in rural China. A total of 2346 old adults were included in the analysis. Frailty status was measured by Fried Phenotype criteria. Sleep quality was assessed by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and psychological distress was examined by Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10). Ordinal logistic regressions were performed to assess the relationships between sleep quality and frailty. Mediation test was also conducted by bootstrap method. The prevalence rate of frailty among the elderly with chronic diseases was 21% in rural China. Compared with the elder of robust status, respondents identified as having frailty have lower SES, less vigorous physical activity, and worse self-reported health status. Poor sleep quality was a significant predictor of frailty with mediators (OR = 1.44, 95% CI = 1.19-1.76). Mediation analysis suggested that psychological distress mediated 41.81% of total effect between sleep quality and frailty. This study indicated that poor sleep quality was significantly related to frailty, and psychological was a mediator of this association. However, we could not investigate causal relationships between variables since this was one cross-sectional study. These findings suggested that an early detection of sleep problems and also psychological disorders should be taken to prevent frailty among the rural older adults in China.
