RESUMEN
Objective: To investigate the association between sleep status and the risk for coronary heart disease in adults in Suzhou. Methods: Using the baseline and follow up information of 53 269 local residents aged 30-79 years in China Kadoorie Biobank conducted in Wuzhong District, Suzhou, 51 929 subjects were included in this study after excluding those reporting coronary heart disease, stroke and cancer at the baseline survey. A Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to analyze the association of healthy sleep score (0-3 points) and sleep factors (snoring, insomnia, long sleep duration and nap) with the risk for coronary heart disease. Results: The median follow-up time was 11.12 years, and 1 304 individuals were diagnosed with coronary heart disease during the follow-up. After adjusting for potential confounders, occasional snoring (HR=1.20, 95%CI: 1.04-1.38), usual snoring (HR=1.17, 95%CI: 1.02-1.33), insomnia disorder (HR=1.41, 95%CI: 1.12-1.78), daytime dysfunction (HR=1.56, 95%CI: 1.20-2.03) and perennial nap (HR=1.37, 95%CI: 1.19-1.59) were associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease. Compared with those with sleep score of 0 - 1 (low sleep quality), the people with sleep score of 3 had reduced risk of coronary heart disease by 26% (HR=0.74, 95%CI: 0.63-0.87). Stratified analysis showed that the association of healthy sleep score 3 with risk of coronary heart disease was stronger in low physically active individuals (interaction P<0.05). Conclusions: Snoring, insomnia disorders, daytime dysfunction, and perennial napping were all associated with increased risk for coronary heart disease, and keep healthy sleep mode might reduce the risk for coronary heart disease in adults.

OBJECTIVE: Sleep Disordered Breathing (SDB) is both prevalent and under-recognized in pediatric minority populations. Recognition of SDB is often triggered by symptoms of caregiver-reported snoring. However, the validity and utility of caregiver reports likely vary across populations. Our objective is to assess the association between caregiver-reported snoring and objectively recorded snoring in a low-income urban community and explore factors associated with agreement between objective and subjective snoring. METHODS: 169 6 to 12 year old participants underwent at-home sleep studies with a WatchPAT device as part of the Environmental Assessment of Sleep in Youth (EASY) cohort study. Differences in subjective snoring, objective snoring, and concordance between subjective and objective snoring based on socioeconomic and clinical characteristics were assessed. RESULTS: The sample had a high proportion of non-white (78.9 %) and low income (39.6 %) children. Caregivers reported snoring for 20.7 % of the children and snoring was measured objectively for 21.9 %. Of those with objective snoring, only 29.7 % were identified as snorers by caregiver report (sensitivity: 0.30; specificity: 0.82). Primary Spanish language and co-sleeping were associated with increased caregiver reported snoring, and allergy was associated with increased objective snoring. Older child age and normal range BMI percentile were associated with higher concordance between caregiver and objective snoring. CONCLUSIONS: Among a community-based, predominantly minority sample, caregiver-reported snoring resulted in under-estimation of prevalence of objectively assessed snoring. Reliance on caregiver report may poorly identify children with snoring or SDB in clinical practice.

BACKGROUND: Different levels of association between snoring, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus (DM) are reported. There are few published studies on this topic in African countries, and no investigation was conducted in Sudan. This study aimed to assess the prevalence and factors associated with snoring and the association between snoring, hypertension, and type 2 DM (T2DM) in northern Sudan. METHODS: A community-based cross-sectional study using a multistage sampling technique was conducted in four villages in the River Nile state of northern Sudan from July to September 2021. Sociodemographic characteristics were collected using a questionnaire. Body mass index (BMI) was measured using standard methods, and a multivariate analysis was conducted using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences® (SPSS®) for Windows, version 22.0. RESULTS: Of the 384 adults, 193 (50.3%) were males and 191 (49.7%) were females. Of the adults, 38 (9.9%) were underweight, 121 (31.5%) had average weight, 113 (29.4%) were overweight, and 112 (29.2%) were obese. One hundred and six (27.6%) adults were snorers. Multivariate analysis showed that increasing age (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 1.02, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.01â1.04), increasing BMI (AOR = 1.04, 95 CI = 1.01â1.08), obesity (AOR = 2.0, 95% CI = 1.10â3.69), and alcohol consumption (AOR = 2.32, 95% CI = 1.14â4.74) were positively associated with snoring. Of the 384 adults, 215 (56.0%) had hypertension. Multivariate analysis showed that increasing age (AOR = 1.04, 95% CI = 1.02â1.06), increasing BMI (AOR = 1.08, 95% CI = 1.04â1.13), female sex (AOR = 1.7, 95% CI = 1.08â2.73), and snoring (AOR = 1.69, 95% CI = 1.02â2.82) were positively associated with hypertension. One hundred and six (27.6%) adults had T2DM. Multivariate analysis showed that increasing age (AOR = 1.03, 95% CI = 1.01â1.05) and snoring (AOR = 1.78, 95% CI = 1.09â2.91) were associated with T2DM. CONCLUSION: Around one-fourth of the adults in Northern Sudan are snorers. Snoring is more common among obese adults. Snoring is associated with increased odds of hypertension and T2DM. Adults who snore must pay close attention to their blood pressure and blood glucose levels to prevent hypertension and DM.

BACKGROUND: Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) may lead to poor asthma control in children. OBJECTIVE: To identify risk factors of SDB in children with asthma and assess its impact on asthma control. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, we collected data of outpatients with asthma at the Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from June 2020 to August 2021. The Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire-Sleep-Related Breathing Disorder and the age-appropriate asthma control tests Childhood Asthma Control Test and Test for Respiratory and Asthma Control in Kids were completed. RESULTS: We enrolled 397 children with a male-to-female ratio of 1.7:1 and a mean age of 5.70 ± 2.53 years. The prevalence of SDB was 21.6%. Allergic rhinitis (odds ratio OR = 3.316), chronic tonsillitis (OR = 2.246), gastroesophageal reflux (OR = 7.518), adenoid hypertrophy (OR = 3.479), recurrent respiratory infections (OR = 2.195), and a family history of snoring (OR = 2.048) were risk factors for the development of combined SDB in children with asthma (p < 0.05). Asthma was poorly controlled in 19.6% of the children. SDB (OR = 2.391) and irregular medication use (OR = 2.571) were risk factors for poor asthma control (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Allergic rhinitis, chronic tonsillitis, gastroesophageal reflux, adenoid hypertrophy, recurrent respiratory infections, and a family history of snoring were independent risk factors for the development of SDB in children with asthma. SDB and irregular medication use were independent risk factors for poor asthma control.

OBJECTIVES: Vigilant attention (VA) is a fundamental neurocognitive function. However, the association between habitual snoring (HS) and VA in community-based children remains unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to elucidate the association. METHODS: The study included 2014 children from grades 1-6 across six elementary schools. Snoring frequency was evaluated using a questionnaire administered to parents. VA was assessed using a brief 3-min psychomotor vigilance test (PVT-B). Generalized linear models and multivariate logistic regression analysis were utilized to examine the association between snoring frequency and PVT-B performance. Impaired PVT-B performance was defined as the worst quartile of PVT-B metrics. RESULTS: The PVT-B performance significantly improved with advancing school grade level (p trend < 0.0001). A significant negative correlation was observed between snoring frequency and PVT-B performance. Particularly, in grade 1, HS was associated with a higher risk of impaired PVT-B performance, including response speed (mean reciprocal reaction time) (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 2.56, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.20-5.50), more slowest 10% RT (aOR 3.28, 95% CI: 1.51-6.88), and more lapse500 (number of lapse of reaction time ≥ 500 ms) (aOR 3.18, 95% CI: 1.45-6.80) compared to children without snoring. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings show that VA rapidly improves throughout elementary school. Additionally, younger children with HS are at risk of VA deficits, emphasizing the importance of early intervention for HS.

STUDY OBJECTIVES: To determine the prevalence and risk factors of sleep bruxism (SB) in adults with primary snoring (PS). METHODS: This study included 292 adults with PS (140 males, 152 females; mean age ± standard deviation = 42.8 ± 12.2 years; mean body mass index ± standard deviation = 26.7 ± 4.7 kg/m2) without previous treatment for snoring. SB was diagnosed based on the frequency of the biomarker of SB: rhythmic masticatory muscle activity (SB when rhythmic masticatory muscle activity ≥ 2 episodes/h). Logistic regression was performed, with SB as the dependent variable and with age, sex, body mass index, and sleep- and respiratory-related polysomnographic parameters as the independent variables to identify the risk factors for SB. RESULTS: The prevalence of SB was 44.6% in adults with PS. Younger age (odds ratio = 0.965 [0.944, 0.987]) and shorter total sleep time (odds ratio = 0.760 [0.609, 0.948]) significantly increased the risk of SB (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS: SB is highly prevalent in adults with PS. Younger age and shorter sleep time are significant risk factors for SB in adults with PS.

PURPOSE: The relationships of sleep factors separately and jointly with metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and significant fibrosis remain unclear. We intended to explore the relationships in the United States. METHODS: This cross-sectional study included 4477 individuals from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2017 to 2018. Information regarding each sleep factor (sleep duration, trouble sleeping, snoring, excessive daytime sleep, and sleep apnea symptoms) was obtained through questionnaires. MAFLD was diagnosed by transient elastography according to the consensus definitions. Multivariable logistic regression models were employed to explore relationships of sleep factors separately and jointly with MAFLD and significant fibrosis. RESULTS: Participants having a poor sleep pattern was associated with higher MAFLD and significant fibrosis risk, and poor sleep pattern was related to about threefold (OR, 3.67; 95% CI, 1.82-7.37) increased risk of MAFLD remarkably. When examining specific factors of sleep patterns individually, trouble sleeping (OR, 1.53; 95% CI, 1.10-2.12), snoring (OR, 2.11; 95% CI, 1.40-3.19), excessive daytime sleep (OR, 1.57; 95% CI, 0.93-2.62), and sleep apnea symptoms (OR, 1.87; 95% CI, 1.13-3.10) were positively associated with the odds of MAFLD (all P < 0.05). However, sleep duration was not independently correlated with MAFLD or significant fibrosis. Sleep patterns showed similar relationships with MAFLD, regardless of all age, sex, physical activity, and shift work groups. CONCLUSIONS: Poor sleep pattern was linked with a considerably higher risk of MAFLD and significant fibrosis.

Despite the high prevalence of snoring in Asia, little is known about the genetic etiology of snoring and its causal relationships with cardiometabolic traits. Based on 100,626 Chinese individuals, a genome-wide association study on snoring was conducted. Four novel loci were identified for snoring traits mapped on SLC25A21, the intergenic region of WDR11 and FGFR, NAA25, ALDH2, and VTI1A, respectively. The novel loci highlighted the roles of structural abnormality of the upper airway and craniofacial region and dysfunction of metabolic and transport systems in the development of snoring. In the two-sample bi-directional Mendelian randomization analysis, higher body mass index, weight, and elevated blood pressure were causal for snoring, and a reverse causal effect was observed between snoring and diastolic blood pressure. Altogether, our results revealed the possible etiology of snoring in China and indicated that managing cardiometabolic health was essential to snoring prevention, and hypertension should be considered among snorers.

Previous studies have shown that excessive alcohol consumption is associated with poor sleep. However, the health risks of light-to-moderate alcohol consumption in relation to sleep traits (e.g., insomnia, snoring, sleep duration and chronotype) remain undefined, and their causality is still unclear in the general population. To identify the association between alcohol consumption and multiple sleep traits using an observational and Mendelian randomization (MR) design. Observational analyses and one-sample MR (linear and nonlinear) were performed using clinical and individual-level genetic data from the UK Biobank (UKB). Two-sample MR was assessed using summary data from genome-wide association studies from the UKB and other external consortia. Phenotype analyses were externally validated using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2017-2018). Data analysis was conducted from January 2022 to October 2022. The association between alcohol consumption and six self-reported sleep traits (short sleep duration, long sleep duration, chronotype, snoring, waking up in the morning, and insomnia) were analysed. This study included 383,357 UKB participants (mean [SD] age, 57.0 [8.0] years; 46% male) who consumed a mean (SD) of 9.0 (10.0) standard drinks (one standard drink equivalent to 14 g of alcohol) per week. In the observational analyses, alcohol consumption was significantly associated with all sleep traits. Light-moderate-heavy alcohol consumption was linearly linked to snoring and the evening chronotype but nonlinearly associated with insomnia, sleep duration, and napping. In linear MR analyses, a 1-SD (14 g) increase in genetically predicted alcohol consumption was associated with a 1.14-fold (95% CI, 1.07-1.22) higher risk of snoring (P < 0.001), a 1.28-fold (95% CI, 1.20-1.37) higher risk of evening chronotype (P < 0.001) and a 1.24-fold (95% CI, 1.13-1.36) higher risk of difficulty waking up in the morning (P < 0.001). Nonlinear MR analyses did not reveal significant results after Bonferroni adjustment. The results of the two-sample MR analyses were consistent with those of the one-sample MR analyses, but with a slightly attenuated overall estimate. Our findings suggest that even low levels of alcohol consumption may affect sleep health, particularly by increasing the risk of snoring and evening chronotypes. The negative effects of alcohol consumption on sleep should be made clear to the public in order to promote public health.

Rationale: Neighborhood disadvantage (ND) has been associated with sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in children. However, the association between ND and SDB symptom burden and quality of life (QOL) has not yet been studied.Objectives: To evaluate associations between ND with SDB symptom burden and QOL.Methods: Cross-sectional analyses were performed on 453 children, ages 3-12.9 years, with mild SDB (habitual snoring and apnea-hypopnea index < 3/h) enrolled in the PATS (Pediatric Adenotonsillectomy Trial for Snoring) multicenter study. The primary exposure, neighborhood disadvantage, was characterized by the Child Opportunity Index (COI) (range, 0-100), in which lower values (specifically COI ⩽ 40) signify less advantageous neighborhoods. The primary outcomes were QOL assessed by the obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)-18 questionnaire (range, 18-126) and SDB symptom burden assessed by the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire-Sleep-related Breathing Disorder (PSQ-SRBD) scale (range, 0-1). The primary model was adjusted for age, sex, race, ethnicity, maternal education, recruitment site, and season. In addition, we explored the role of body mass index (BMI) percentile, environmental tobacco smoke (ETS), and asthma in these associations.Results: The sample included 453 children (16% Hispanic, 26% Black or African American, 52% White, and 6% other). COI mean (standard deviation [SD]) was 50.3 (29.4), and 37% (n = 169) of participants lived in disadvantaged neighborhoods. Poor SDB-related QOL (OSA-18 ⩾ 60) and high symptom burden (PSQ-SRBD ⩾ 0.33) were found in 30% (n = 134) and 75% (n = 341) of participants, respectively. In adjusted models, a COI increase by 1 SD (i.e., more advantageous neighborhood) was associated with an improvement in OSA-18 score by 2.5 points (95% confidence interval [CI], -4.34 to -0.62) and in PSQ-SRBD score by 0.03 points (95% CI, -0.05 to -0.01). These associations remained significant after adjusting for BMI percentile, ETS, or asthma; however, associations between COI and SDB-related QOL attenuated by 23% and 10% after adjusting for ETS or asthma, respectively.Conclusions: Neighborhood disadvantage was associated with poorer SDB-related QOL and greater SDB symptoms. Associations were partially attenuated after considering the effects of ETS or asthma. The findings support efforts to reduce ETS and neighborhood-level asthma-related risk factors and identify other neighborhood-level factors that contribute to SDB symptom burden as strategies to address sleep-health disparities.Clinical trial registered with www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT02562040).

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: This review paper focuses on sleep bruxism (SB) in children and adolescents. It aims to assess the landscape of knowledge published in the last 20 years. METHODS: A total of 144 relevant publications from 386 previously identified through Medline were included, of which 83 were on possible SB, 37 on probable SB, 20 on definite SB and 4 were non-applicable. The review places emphasis on the recent evidence on prevalence, pathophysiology, diagnosis and management of SB in children and adolescents, with special focus on probable and definitive SB. RESULTS: The prevalence ranges from 5% to 50% depending on the age range and on the SB diagnosis (possible, probable or definitive). The pathophysiology is multifactorial, arousal associated and with behavioural problems and sleep disorders (obstructive sleep apnoea, snoring, nightmares) as risk factors, as well as respiratory conditions (allergies, oral breathing). Screening should include questionnaires and dental assessment. Instrumental recording is helpful to confirm diagnosis although more studies are needed to validate this approach in children. SB management includes controlling orofacial and dental consequences and assessing for any other comorbidity. Management options include occlusal splints, oral appliances (advancement mandibular), rapid maxillary expansion and some medications, although this last option is supported by limited evidences in children. CONCLUSION: Suggestions of future topics in research are delivered to better understand comorbidities, diagnosis and management with improved outcomes compared to what is currently available.

Maternal poor sleep quality may increase blood pressure during pregnancy, but sound evidence is still limited and inconsistent. To evaluate whether sleep disturbances in early gestation are risk factors for the development of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, we conducted the Early Life Plan Project from June 2016 to December 2019. Maternal sleep patterns were assessed at 12-16 weeks of gestation by using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index questionnaire. For gestational hypertension and preeclampsia, we estimated adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) using multinomial logistic regression models adjusting for potential confounders. Among 5,532 eligible women, we observed that maternal blood pressure in early gestation was significantly higher in women with low sleep efficiency (≤85%), long sleep duration (≥9 hours/night), and snoring. Compared with nonsnorers, snoring in early gestation was independently associated with preeclampsia (OR = 1.72 (95% CI: 1.09, 2.73) for snoring once or twice per week; OR = 2.06 (95% CI: 1.01, 4.31) for snoring 3 or more times per week), particularly for term preeclampsia (OR = 1.79 (95% CI: 1.08, 2.95) and 2.26 (95% CI: 1.03, 4.95), respectively). Results suggest that snoring in early gestation may be a significant risk factor for preeclampsia, with a dose-response pattern.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder characterised by recurrent upper airway collapse during sleep. Alcohol consumption has been linked to an increased risk of OSA due to its effects on the upper airway and body mass index (BMI). We aimed to investigate the correlation between alcohol use disorders and OSA. We used 11,859 participants data from Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys. The variable of interest was alcohol use disorder, measured using the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test, and the dependent variable was the risk of OSA, measured using the Snoring, Tiredness, Observed apnea, high blood Pressure, BMI, age, neck circumference, and male gender questionnaires. Multiple logistic regression was used to assess the association between alcohol use disorder and OSA risk after adjusted analysis. A significant association was found between alcohol use disorder and OSA (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 2.14, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.93-2.37). In the unemployed group, those with alcohol use disorder had the highest odds of being at risk of OSA compared with those who did not have this disorder (aOR 2.45, 95% CI 2.04-2.95). The OSA risk increased as the snoring frequency, amount of alcohol consumed, and frequency of binge drinking increased. This study suggests an association between alcohol use disorders and the risk of OSA. The frequency of alcohol consumption, quantity of alcohol consumed, and snoring frequency were associated with the risk of OSA. Therefore, ceasing alcohol consumption is recommended as an effective approach to enhancing sleep quality.

AIM: To study if individuals with nocturnal gastroesophageal reflux (nGER) and habitual snoring are more likely to develop asthma and respiratory symptoms (i.e. wheeze, cough, chest tightness, breathlessness) than those without these conditions, and if these associations are additive. METHODS: We used data from the population-based prospective questionnaire study Respiratory Health in Northern Europe (RHINE) (11,024 participants), with data from 1999 and 2011. Participants with heartburn or belching after going to bed, at least 1 night/week, were considered to have nGER. Participants reporting loud snoring at least 3 nights/week were considered to have habitual snoring. Participants were grouped into four groups by their nGER and snoring status: "never"; "former"; "incident"; "persistent". Incident respiratory symptoms were analyzed among participants without respective symptom at baseline. RESULTS: Snoring and nGER were independently associated with incident asthma and respiratory symptoms. The risk of incident wheeze was increased in subjects with incident or persistent snoring (adjusted odds ratio (95 % CI): 1.44 (1.21-1.72)), nGER (2.18 (1.60-2.98)) and in those with both snoring and nGER (2.59 (1.83-3.65)). The risk of developing asthma was increased in subjects with incident or persistent snoring (1.44 (1.15-1.82)), nGER (1.99 (1.35-2.93)) and in those with both snoring and nGER (1.72 (1.06-2.77)). No significant interaction was found between snoring and nGER. A similar pattern was found for the incidence of all other respiratory symptoms studied, with the highest risk among those with both incident or persistent nGER and snoring. CONCLUSION: The risk of developing asthma and respiratory symptoms is increased among subjects with nGER and habitual snoring. These associations are independent of each other and confounding factors. Snoring and nGER together are additive on respiratory symptoms.

Hypertensive patients with snoring and elevated plasma homocysteine levels are common. When these factors are combined, the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) is high. Herein, we developed and validated an easy-to-use nomogram to predict high-risk CHD in snoring hypertensive patients with elevated plasma homocysteine.Snoring patients (n = 1,962) with hyperhomocysteinemia and hypertension were divided into training (n = 1,373, 70%) and validation (n = 589, 30%) sets. We extracted CHD predictors using multivariate Cox regression analysis, then constructed a nomogram model. Internal validation using 1,000 bootstrap resampling was performed to assess the consistency and discrimination of the predictive model using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and calibration plots.We constructed a nomogram model with the extracted predictors, including age, waist-height ratio, smoking, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. The AUCs of the training and validation cohorts at 80 months were 0.735 (95% CI: 0.678-0.792) and 0.646 (95% CI: 0.547-0.746), respectively. The consistency between the observed CHD survival and the probability of CHD survival in the training and validation sets was acceptable based on the calibration plots. A total of more than 151 points in the nomogram can be used in the identification of high-risk patients for CHD among snoring hypertensive patients with elevated plasma homocysteine.We developed a CHD risk prediction model for snoring hypertension patients with hyperhomocysteinemia. Our findings provide a useful clinical tool for the rapid identification of high-risk CHD at an early stage.

BACKGROUNDS AND AIMS: Evidence on the association between habitual snoring, excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remains uncertain and limited. The study aimed to explore the independent and joint association between habitual snoring, EDS, and CVDs in rural Chinese adults. METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 28,140 participants from the Henan rural cohort study were included. Sleep status information was obtained by self-reported. Based on their sleep status, the participants were classified into four groups: "no snoring and no EDS (NSNS) (reference group)", "snoring and no EDS (SNS)", "no snoring and EDS (NSS)", "snoring and EDS (SS)." The logistic regression models were used to calculate independent and joint odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) between the snoring, EDS status and stroke, CHD, and CVD. Of the 28,140 participants, 740 subjects reported snoring and sleepiness. The ORs and (95% CIs) for CVDs in the adjusted model were 1.31 (1.20-1.43) for participants who snored frequently and 2.44 (1.76-3.39) for frequent sleepiness compared with no snoring and no sleepiness. Individuals with both snoring and sleepiness had higher odds of CVDs compared with no snoring and no sleepiness (OR: 2.18, 95%CI: 1.80-2.62). CONCLUSION: Habitual snoring and excessive daytime sleepiness were independently and jointly associated with CVDs in the Chinese rural population. More studies are needed to explore the mechanisms of the relationship. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: The Henan Rural Cohort Study has been registered at the Chinese Clinical Trial Register (Registration number: ChiCTR-OOC-15006699).

BACKGROUND: Most adult patients with depression complain about sleep symptoms, including insufficient and excessive sleep. However, previous studies investigating the impact of sleep duration on depression have yielded conflicting results. Therefore, this study aimed to analyse the link between depression and sleep duration, daytime napping, and snoring among rural Chinese adults. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 9104 individuals. Interviews were conducted with the participants regarding their sleep patterns and their daytime napping routines. The individuals were then assessed for depression using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. The risk of depression was assessed using a multifactor binary logistic regression analysis. A generalized additive model was used to evaluate the nonlinear relationship between depression and sleep duration/nap time. Additionally, subgroup analysis was conducted to investigate the correlation between sleep duration, daytime napping, snoring, and depression. RESULTS: Less than 6 h or more than 8 h of nighttime sleep, daytime napping for more than 1 h, and snoring were all significantly associated with an increased risk of depression. A U-shaped relationship was found between the duration of nighttime sleep and depression. In addition, we found that the nighttime duration of sleep, daytime naps, and snoring had a significant combined effect on the risk of depression. The subgroup analysis further revealed that lack of sleep at night significantly increased the risk of depression in all subgroups. However, snoring and excessive nighttime sleep and napping were only associated with the risk of depression in some subgroups. CONCLUSIONS: Lack of nighttime sleep (short sleep duration), excessive sleep, and napping for more than one hour during the day were associated with a high risk of depression and had a combined effect with snoring.

Whereas lifestyle-related factors are recognized as snoring risk factors, the role of genetics in snoring remains uncertain. One way to measure the impact of genetic risk is through the use of a polygenic risk score (PRS). In this study, we aimed to investigate whether genetics plays a role in snoring after adjusting for lifestyle factors. Since the effect of polygenic risks may differ across ethnic groups, we calculated the PRS for snoring from the UK Biobank and applied it to a Korean cohort. We sought to evaluate the reproducibility of the UK Biobank PRS for snoring in the Korean cohort and to investigate the interaction of lifestyle factors and genetic risk on snoring in the Korean population. In this study, we utilized a Korean cohort obtained from the Korean Genome Epidemiology Study (KoGES). We computed the snoring PRS for the Korean cohort based on the UK Biobank PRS. We investigated the relationship between polygenic risks and snoring while controlling for lifestyle factors, including sex, age, body mass index (BMI), alcohol consumption, smoking, physical activity, and sleep time. Additionally, we analyzed the interaction of each lifestyle factor and the genetic odds of snoring. We included 3526 snorers and 1939 nonsnorers from the KoGES cohort and found that the PRS, a polygenic risk factor, was an independent factor for snoring after adjusting for lifestyle factors. In addition, among lifestyle factors, higher BMI, male sex, and older age were the strongest lifestyle factors for snoring. In addition, the highest adjusted odds ratio for snoring was higher BMI (OR 1.98, 95% CI 1.76-2.23), followed by male sex (OR 1.54, 95% CI 1.28-1.86), older age (OR 1.23, 95% CI 1.03-1.35), polygenic risks such as higher PRS (OR 1.18, 95% CI 1.08-1.29), drinking behavior (OR 1.18, 95% CI 1.03-1.35), late sleep mid-time (OR 1.17, 95% CI 1.02-1.33), smoking behavior (OR 0.99, 95% CI 0.82-1.19), and lower physical activity (OR 0.92, 95% CI 0.85-1.00). Our study identified that the UK Biobank PRS for snoring was reproducible in the Korean cohort and that genetic risk served as an independent risk factor for snoring in the Korean population. These findings may help to develop personalized approaches to reduce snoring in individuals with high genetic risk.

Orofacial myofunctional disorders (OMD) and sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) may present as comorbidities. Orofacial characteristics might serve as a clinical marker of SDB, allowing early identification and management of OMD and improving treatment outcomes for sleep disorders. The study aims to characterize OMD in children with SDB symptoms and to investigate possible relationships between the presence of various components of OMD and symptoms of SDB. A cross-sectional study of healthy children aged 6-8 from primary schools was conducted in central Vietnam in 2019. SDB symptoms were collected using the parental Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire, Snoring Severity Scale, Epworth Daytime Sleepiness Scale, and lip-taping nasal breathing assessment. Orofacial myofunctional evaluation included assessment of tongue mobility, as well as of lip and tongue strength using the Iowa Oral Performance Instrument, and of orofacial characteristics by the protocol of Orofacial Myofunctional Evaluation with Scores. Statistical analysis was used to investigate the relationship between OMD components and SDB symptoms. 487 healthy children were evaluated, of whom 46.2% were female. There were 7.6% of children at high risk of SDB. Children with habitual snoring (10.3%) had an increased incidence of restricted tongue mobility and decreased lip and tongue strength. Abnormal breathing patterns (22.4%) demonstrated lower posterior tongue mobility and lower muscle strength. Daytime sleepiness symptoms were associated with changes in muscle strength, facial appearance, and impaired orofacial function. Lower strengths of lip and tongue or improper nasal breathing were more likely to be present in children with reported sleep apnea (6.6%). Neurobehavioral symptoms of inattention and hyperactivity were linked to anomalous appearance/posture, increases in tongue mobility and oral strength. This study demonstrates a prevalence of orofacial myofunctional anomalies in children exhibiting SDB symptoms. Children with prominent SDB symptoms should be considered as candidates for further orofacial myofunctional assessment.

BACKGROUND: A few studies have shown that snoring, in certain populations, is associated with dyslipidemia. However, there are currently no large-scale national studies available that explore this association. Thus, for further clarification, studies using a large sample of the general population need to be conducted. This study aimed to explore this association using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database. METHODS: A cross-sectional survey was conducted using data from the NHANES database; 2005 to 2008 and 2015 to 2018 datasets were used (weighted to be representative of United States adults aged ≥ 20 years). Information on snoring status, lipid levels, and confounding factors were included. Logistic regression of the generalized linear model was used to analyze the relationship between snoring and dyslipidemia, and hierarchical analysis, interaction analysis, and sensitivity analysis were used to explore the stability of the results. RESULTS: Data from 28,687 participants were analyzed, and 67% of the participants had some degree of snoring. The fully adjusted multivariate logistic regression results demonstrated that snoring frequency was significantly positively associated with dyslipidemia (P < 0.001 for linear trend). Adjusted odds ratios (aORs) of dyslipidemia among those who snored rarely, occasionally, and frequently were 1.1 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.02-1.18), 1.23 (95% CI, 1.10-1.38), and 1.43 (95% CI, 1.29-1.58), respectively, compared with that among those who never snored. In addition, age and snoring frequency showed a correlation (P = 0.02). Sensitivity analysis demonstrated that frequent snoring was significantly associated with lipid levels (all P ≤ 0.01 for linear trend), including increased low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (ß = 0.09 mmol/L; 95% CI, 0.02-0.16), triglyceride (TG) (ß = 0.18 mmol/L; 95% CI, 0.10-0.26), total cholesterol (TC) (ß = 0.11 mmol/L; 95% CI, 0.05-0.16), and decreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (ß=-0.04 mmol/L; 95% CI, -0.06--0.03). CONCLUSIONS: A statistically significant positive association was identified between sleep snoring and dyslipidemia. It was suggested that sleep snoring interventions may reduce the risk of dyslipidemia.
