ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between proxy for circadian disruption, eating habits, sleep characteristics, and dyslipidemic parameters. METHODS: This was a randomized, double-blind, crossover controlled clinical trial, and for this study, only baseline data were used. The sample was composed of 36 overweight female nurses who worked on a fixed night shift (12 × 36 h). Linear regression models were used to assess the relationship between the mentioned variables. RESULTS: The participants' average age was 39.4 y (Standard error (SE) 1 y) and the average nighttime sleep duration was 5.76 h (SE 0.16 h). The average chronotype indicated a moderate early type (03:03 h; SE 20 min) and the average social jetlag was 03:42 h (SE 10 min). It was found that 1 h less of nighttime sleep increased very-low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels by 2.75 mg/dL and triacylglyceride levels by 3.62 mg/dL. Additionally, higher social jetlag was associated with higher low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. On the other hand, each additional hour in the chronotype increased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels by 3.06 mg/dL and a time interval >2 h between the last meal and sleep onset was associated with higher high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. CONCLUSION: Short duration of nighttime sleep and high social jetlag are risk factors for dyslipidemia, whereas the late type and the longer time interval between the last meal and sleep onset appear to be protective factors for dyslipidemia.

RESUMO O presente estudo teve como objetivo investigar a associação entre Transtornos Mentais Comuns (TMC) e carga viral de Pessoas Vivendo com Vírus da Imunodeficiência Humana - HIV (PVHIV) em seguimento clínico. Foi realizado um estudo transversal com 307 PVHIV com ≥ 18 anos de idade que estavam em terapia antirretroviral no Serviço de Assistência Especializada do município de Santos (SP) em 2016. A variável dependente de estudo foi a quantificação da carga viral; e a variável independente compreendeu os transtornos mentais comuns, avaliados pelo Self-Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ-20). Para comparação das médias das variáveis, foram realizados modelos lineares generalizados com nível de significância de 5%. Conclui-se que os TMC estão associados a uma maior carga viral entre PVHIV em seguimento clínico.
ABSTRACT The present study aimed to investigate the association between Common Mental Disorders (CMD) and viral load in People Living with Human Immunodeficiency Virus - HIV (PLHIV) in clinical follow-up. A cross-sectional study was performed with 307 PLHIV aged ≥ 18 years who were on antiretroviral therapy at the Specialized Care Service of the city of Santos (SP) in 2016. The dependent variable of the study was the quantification of viral load and the independent variable comprised the minor psychic disorders assessed by the Self-Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ-20). To compare the mean levels of the variables, generalized linear models were performed with significance level of 5%. It is concluded that CMD are associated with a higher viral load among PLHIV in clinical follow-up.
