STUDY OBJECTIVES: Cancer is one of the main causes of death in the world, and sleep disorders are a serious public health problem, especially in large cities; of these, insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are the most common. In the last decade, studies have pointed to a possible association between sleep disorders and cancer. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether there is any association between sleep disorders and cancer. METHODS: Five National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES) (2005-2014) from the United States were combined in order to obtain the sample. Two main sleep variables were assessed: having trouble sleeping and/or ever telling a doctor one had a sleep problem. The odds ratio of ever having a cancer diagnosis was the main outcome. Data were analyzed by binary logistic regression models in Jamovi. RESULTS: The final sample comprised 26,821 participants. Individuals who reported having trouble sleeping had an odds ratio of 1.48 (95% confidence interval = [1.336-1.646]; P < .001) of having been diagnosed with cancer, and those who had already been diagnosed with a sleep disorder had an odds ratio of 1.21 (95% confidence interval = [1.046-1.415]; P = .011), showing an increased chance of having been diagnosed with cancer. In men, these values were even greater, with an odds ratio of 1.56 (95% confidence interval = [1.321-1.843]; P < .001) and an odds ratio of 1.26 (95% confidence interval = [1.013-1.582]; P = .037), respectively, for having trouble sleeping and for having been diagnosed with a sleep disorder, in relation to having been diagnosed with cancer. CONCLUSIONS: Individuals who had trouble sleeping or who had been diagnosed with a sleep disorder at any time in their life were more likely to have been diagnosed with cancer.
