RESUMO
Background Poor or imperfect sleep hygiene practices include all factors that promote arousal or disrupt the normal balance of the sleep-wake cycle. It is necessary to clarify the relationship between sleep hygiene behaviors and a person's mental health. This may allow a better understanding of this problem and might help design effective awareness programs about good sleep hygiene practices for reducing the serious outcomes of this problem. Therefore, the current study was conducted to evaluate sleep hygiene practices and assess the impact of sleep hygiene on sleep quality and the mental health of the adult population of Tabuk city, Saudi Arabia. Methodology This cross-sectional, survey-based study was conducted in Tabuk city, Saudi Arabia in 2022. All adult residents of Tabuk city, Saudi Arabia were invited to participate. Participants with incomplete data were excluded from the study. A self-administered questionnaire was developed by the researchers to assess sleep hygiene practices and their impact on the sleep quality and mental health of the study participants. Results The study included 384 adults. There was a significant association between the frequency of sleep problems and poor sleep hygiene practices (p < 0.001). The percentage of subjects who had problems sleeping during the past three months was significantly higher among those having poor sleep hygiene practices (76.5%) than their counterparts (56.1%). The rates of excessive or severe daytime sleepiness were significantly higher among individuals with poor hygiene practices (22.5% versus 11.7% and 5.2% versus 1.2%, p = 0.001). Participants with depression were found to be significantly higher among the poor hygiene group (75.8%) in comparison to those having good hygiene practices (59.6%) (p = 0.001). Conclusions The findings of the present study indicate significant associations between poor sleep hygiene practices and sleep problems, daytime sleepiness, and depression among adult residents of Tabuk city, Saudi Arabia.
RESUMO
Single-anastomosis sleeve jejunal (SASJ) bypass is a bariatric surgery technique with promising results. However, evidence of its efficacy and safety is still lacking. This study aimed to summarize the evidence regarding the efficacy and safety of SASJ bypass surgery in the treatment of morbid obesity. The literature was searched for English-language studies published from inception till November 26, 2023, on MEDLINE/PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, ProQuest, Scopus, SCINAPSE, and Google Scholar. The search terms included "morbid obesity," "bariatric surgery," and "single anastomosis sleeve jejunal bypass." Extracted data included the body mass index (BMI) before and after surgery, percent total weight loss (%TWL), percent excess weight loss (%EWL), and improvement in preoperative comorbidities. Pooling of the data was done using random effects or fixed-effect models based on the presence of significant heterogeneity. Nine studies were included in this systematic review and meta-analysis. The change in BMI from baseline at 12 months after SASJ bypass was significant (standardized mean difference (SMD) = -3.576, 95% confidence interval (CI) = -5.423, -1.730; I² = 99.23%). At 12 months after surgery, the pooled %TWL was 42.526 (95% CI = 37.948, 47.105; I² = 97.15%), and the pooled %EWL was 75.258 (95% CI = 67.061, 83.456; I² = 99.26%). The pooled incidence of postoperative improvement in diabetes mellitus was 91% (95% CI = 79.6%, 98%, I² = 82%). The overall rate of complications was 9.9% (95% CI = 2.5%, 21.6%; I² = 92.64%). Regarding the short- and mid-term outcomes, SASJ bypass is a safe and effective procedure for weight loss in patients with morbid obesity, with an acceptable rate of complications. The procedure is also associated with a marked improvement in obesity-related comorbidities.
