At the core of human thought, for majority individuals in developed nations at least, there is tacit assumption that as a species we are unfettered by demands imposed our biology and can do what want, whatever time choose, whereas reality every aspect physiology behaviour constrained 24 h beat arising from deep within evolution.

Validation of the Sleep Regularity Index in Older Adults and Associations with Cardiometabolic Risk

Scientific Reports, Journal Year: 2018, Volume and Issue: 8(1)

Published: Sept. 17, 2018

Abstract Sleep disturbances, including insufficient sleep duration and circadian misalignment, confer risk for cardiometabolic disease. Less is known about the association between regularity of sleep/wake schedules risk. This study evaluated external validity a new metric, Regularity Index (SRI), among older adults (n = 1978; mean age 68.7 ± 9.2), as well relationships SRI using data from Multi-Ethnic Study Atherosclerosis (MESA). Results indicated that irregularity was associated with delayed timing, increased daytime sleepiness, reduced light exposure, but independent duration. Greater also correlated 10-year cardiovascular disease greater obesity, hypertension, fasting glucose, hemoglobin A1C, diabetes status. Finally, perceived stress depression, psychiatric factors integrally tied to These results suggest useful measure in adults. Additionally, may represent target early identification prevention Future studies clarify causal direction these effects, mechanisms underlying links risk, utility interventions reducing

Cross-sectional and Prospective Associations of Actigraphy-Assessed Sleep Regularity With Metabolic Abnormalities: The Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis

Diabetes Care, Journal Year: 2019, Volume and Issue: 42(8), P. 1422 - 1429

Published: June 5, 2019

To cross-sectionally and prospectively investigate the association between irregular sleep patterns, a potential marker for circadian disruption, metabolic abnormalities.In Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis, participants completed 7-day actigraphy at exam 5 (2010-2013) were followed throughout 6 (2016 to 2017). Sleep regularity was quantified by SD actigraphy-assessed duration onset timing. Metabolic abnormalities defined 1) National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III criteria 2) data-driven clustering factors.In cross-sectional analysis adjusted sociodemographic lifestyle factors (n = 2,003), every 1-h increase in associated with 27% (95% CI 1.10, 1.47) higher odds syndrome, timing 23% 1.06, 1.42) odds.

COVID-19-mandated social restrictions unveil the impact of social time pressure on sleep and body clock

Scientific Reports, Journal Year: 2020, Volume and Issue: 10(1)

Published: Dec. 17, 2020

Abstract In humans, sleep regulation is tightly linked to social times that assign local time events, such as school, work, or meals. The impact of these times, collectively—social pressure, on has been studied epidemiologically via quantification the discrepancy between workdays and those work-free days. This known jetlag (SJL). COVID-19-mandated restrictions (SR) constituted a global intervention by affecting worldwide. We launched Global Chrono Corona Survey (GCCS) queried sleep–wake before during SR ( preSR inSR ). 11,431 adults from 40 countries responded April 4 May 6, 2020. final sample consisted 7517 respondents (68.2% females), who had 32.7 ± 9.1 (mean sd) days under SR. led robust changes: mid-sleep free was delayed 50 22 min, respectively; duration increased 26 min but shortened 9 days; SJL decreased ~ 30 min. On , in most people approached their Changes correlated with -use alarm clocks were larger young adults. data indicate massive deficit pre-pandemic provide insights actual need different age-groups suggest tolerable about 20 Relaxed pressure promotes more sleep, smaller reduced use clocks.
