Abstract
Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder linked to various mental disorders, but little is known about the impact of rosacea on sleep disorders. The aim of this study is to confirm the association of rosacea with sleep disorders using a large administrative data set. This nationwide population-based retrospective cohort study enrolled 1129 individuals with rosacea and 11 017 age- and sex-matched controls without rosacea from the Korean National Health Insurance System database from 2002 to 2015. The prevalence of sleep disorder (7.8%) was significantly higher in patients with rosacea than in controls (5.81%; p < 0.001). Rosacea was associated with an increased risk of sleep disorder (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 1.287 [95% confidence interval (CI), 1.022-1.623]). Among a variety of sleep disorders, patients with rosacea were likely to have an increased risk of insomnia (aOR, 1.318 [95% CI, 1.002-1.743]). In subgroup analysis, female patients with rosacea (aOR, 1.297 [95% CI, 1.010-1.722]) and those with rosacea and dyslipidemia (aOR, 1.417 [95% CI, 1.062-1.891]) were at a higher risk of having a sleep disorder. Rosacea is associated with an increased risk of having sleep disorders. The management of modifiable risk factors is important for managing sleep disorders in patients with rosacea.

Gong Q, Guo C. Genetic study of the causal effect of lipid profiles on insomnia risk: a Mendelian randomization trial. BMC Med Genomics 2023; 16:325. [PMID: 38087303 PMCID: PMC10714578 DOI: 10.1186/s12920-023-01761-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2023] [Accepted: 12/04/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES In response to the controversy surrounding observational studies of the association between lipid profiles and the risk of insomnia, the aim of this study was to analyze lipid profiles, including triglycerides (TG), apolipoprotein A-1 (ApoA-1), apolipoprotein B (ApoB) and lipoprotein A (LPA), in a European population to further assess the causal relationship between these lipid types and insomnia. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study explores the causal effect of lipid profiles on insomnia based on a genome-wide association study (GWAS)-derived public dataset using two-sample and multivariate Mendelian randomization (MVMR) analysis. The main MR analyses used inverse variance weighting (IVW) odds ratio (OR), and the sensitivity analyses included weighted median (WM) and MR‒Egger. RESULTS Both MR and MVMR showed that lowering ApoA-1 and LPA levels had causal effects on the risk of insomnia [MR: per 10 units, ApoA-1: OR: 0.7546, 95% CI: 0.6075-0.9372, P = 0.011; LPA: OR: 0.8392, 95% CI: 0.7202-0.9778, P = 0.025; MVMR: per 10 units, ApoA-1: OR: 0.7600, 95% CI: 0.6362-0.9079, P = 0.002; LPA, OR: 0.903, 95% CI: 0.8283-0.9845, P = 0.021]. There were no causal effects of TG or ApoB on insomnia (all P > 0.05). The MR‒Egger intercept test, funnel plot, and IVW methods all suggested an absence of strong directional pleiotropy, and leave-one-out permutation analysis did not detect any single single-nucleotide polymorphism that had a strong influence on the results. CONCLUSION Elevated levels of ApoA-1 and LPA were independently and causally associated with the risk of insomnia, suggesting that elevated ApoA-1 and LPA levels may contribute to a reduced risk of insomnia.

Health-related factors and dysregulation of epigenetic related genes in metabolic syndrome trigger finger patients and smoker trigger finger patients: preliminary analysis of patient-derived sample. J Orthop Surg Res 2023; 18:785. [PMID: 37853419 PMCID: PMC10585746 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-023-04271-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: 09/05/2023] [Accepted: 10/08/2023] [Indexed: 10/20/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the health-related factors and analyze the expression of epigenetic related genes and inflammatory genes in metabolic syndrome Trigger Finger (TF) and smoker TF. METHODS Samples from patients' fingers with symptomatic TF were collected. There were seven groups: healthy control group, carpal tunnel syndrome (as a control for gene expression analysis), TF, diabetic TF, hypertensive TF, dyslipidemic TF and smoker TF. The expression levels of epigenetic related genes and inflammatory genes in metabolic syndrome TF and smoker TF were evaluated by the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) technique. The Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaires, disability of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH) and numeric pain rating scale were given to the participants to fill out. RESULTS There was a significant increase in hand dysfunction in the metabolic TF groups and smoker group compared to the TF group (p < 0.0001). The stress levels of the smoker TF group and TF with hypertension group were significantly increased compared with those in the TF group (p < 0.03) and (p < 0.021), respectively. On the other hand, there was a significant increase in the COL-I, COL-II and TNF-α gene expression of the metabolic TF groups and smoker group (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Health-related factors in the TF tendons was highly associated with the level of inflammation and genetic alteration in TF metabolic syndromes and smoker TF patients. Therefore, further investigation is required to examine the combination of occupational therapy, gene expression, and health-related factors as a promising method of managing TF.

Association between weekend catch-up sleep and dyslipidemia among Korean workers. Sci Rep 2023; 13:925. [PMID: 36650276 PMCID: PMC9845206 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-28142-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2022] [Accepted: 01/13/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Within competitive sociocultural environments, most Korean workers are likely to shorten their sleep duration during the weekday. Short sleep duration is associated with dyslipidemia; however, studies on the correlation between various sleep patterns and dyslipidemia are still lacking. In hence this study aimed to investigate the association between weekend catch-up sleep (CUS) and dyslipidemia among South Korean workers. Our study used data from the 8th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). The analysis covered 4,085 participants, excluding those who were diagnosed with dyslipidemia and not currently participating in economic activities. Weekend CUS was calculated as the absolute difference between self-reported weekday and weekend sleep duration. Dyslipidemia was diagnosed based on the levels of total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and triglycerides in blood samples collected after 9-12 h of fasting. After adjusting for sociodemographic, economic, health-related, and sleep-related factors, a negative association of weekend CUS with dyslipidemia was observed in male workers (odds ratio: 0.76, 95% confidence interval: 0.61-0.95). Further, workers with total sleep duration of 7-8 h, night workers, and white-collar workers with CUS were at relatively low risk of dyslipidemia compared to the non-CUS group. Less than 2 h of weekend CUS was negatively related to dyslipidemia in Korean workers, especially males. This suggests that sleeping more on weekends for workers who had a lack of sleep during the week can help prevent dyslipidemia.

Abstract
Sleep comprises one-third of our day and plays an integral role in human health and well-being. Many factors influence sleep, with nutrition being a key element that impacts various sleep parameters. Meal-timing through strategies like chrono-nutrition leads to positive sleep outcomes. In addition, consuming a high-protein diet with essential amino acids, low-glycemic-index foods, and certain fruits rich in antioxidants can all contribute to better sleep quality. Other facets of nutrition that can affect sleep outcomes include weight loss and limiting certain nutritional elements such as caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol. In this article, we will shed some light on how some of these factors can play a vital role in sleep quality.

Abstract
Objective To explore the association of sleep characteristics with cardiovascular disease (CVD) using self-reported questionnaires. Material and Methods 957 adults between 19 and 86 years old were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. The participants were classified into three groups [short (<6h), normal (6-8h), and long (>8h) sleepers] by using multistage stratified cluster sampling. CVD was defined by a positive response to the questions: "Have you been told by a doctor that you have had a heart attack or angina or stroke or have you undergone bypass surgery?". Sleep quality, utilizing Epworth sleepiness scale, Athens insomnia scale, Pittsburgh sleep quality index and Berlin questionnaire, was also examined. Results Prevalence of CVD was 9.5%. Individuals with CVD exhibited reduced sleep duration by 33 min (p<0.001) and sleep efficiency by 10% (p<0.001). In multivariable logistic regression analysis, adjusting for subjects' sociodemographic, lifestyle habits and health related characteristics, short sleep duration was almost three times more frequent in patients with CVD (aOR=2.86, p<0.001 in the entire sample; aOR=2.68, p=0.019 in women and aOR=2.57, p=0.009 in men). Furthermore, CVD was significantly associated with excessive daytime sleepiness (aOR=2.02, p=0.026), insomnia (aOR=1.93, p=0.010), poor sleep quality (aOR=1.90, p=0.006) and increased risk of obstructive sleep apnea (aOR=2.08, p=0.003). Conclusion Our study highlights a strong correlation of sleep insufficiency with CVD and promotes early pharmacological or cognitive behavioral interventions in order to protect cardiovascular health.
