“…Few reports supported our findings both in healthy population and in dialysis patients. 33,34 In contrast, two studies in PD patients indicated that age might influence sleep quality. 30,35 The mixed results regarding the effects of age on sleep quality may be attributed to the differences in the study populations and measurement tools.…”

Purpose: Since sympathovagal imbalance influences clinical phenomena, such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease (CKD) and sleeping problems, there should be correlations between these conditions. We hypothesized that sleep quality would be correlated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), blood pressure and the presence of diabetes. Methods: We included 303 CKD patients in this study. We employed the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and Short Form 36 Quality of Life Health Survey Questions (SF-36) to screen sleeping disturbances, depression and quality of life, respectively. A chart review was performed for the patients' demographics, diagnoses and certain laboratory parameters-including blood glucose, hemoglobin, albumin, calcium, phosphate, parathyroid hormone and eGFR. Multivariate logistic regression models were employed to estimate odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals. Results: We included 303 patients in this cross-sectional study. A total of 101 patients were on dialysis. In the univariate models, gender, calcium and mental component summary scores (MCS) reached a significant level of 0.1, and those covariates were included in the multivariate analysis. The reduced models included gender and MCS categories. Female gender increases the risk for poor sleep quality. In our report, evidence suggests MCS domain scores are inversely related to the risk for impaired sleep. Conclusion: Our results indicated a high burden of sleep disturbances in kidney patients. In addition, female gender and having low MCS scores may influence sleep quality in kidney patients.

“…In a study by Kuh et al (9) in the UK with over 1200 women, the risk of sleep disturbances relative to that among premenopausal women was higher by a factor of 1.5 for perimenopausal women and a factor of 3.4 for postmenopausal women. The prevalence of sleep difficulty varies between 14% and 53% in the menopausal period (9)(10)(11). In Timur and Sahin's study (12) of 887 women in the menopausal period carried out in Malatya, Turkey, the prevalence of sleep difficulty was found to be 54%.…”

IntroductionMenopause is a regression in the production of sex hormones with the loss of ovary activity and hence termination of menstruation characterized by the loss of reproductive functions. Hormonal changes such as declining estrogen levels during this period are frequently accompanied by a variety of secondary physiological, psychological, and behavioral changes (1). Menopause affects sleep regulation in addition to many other systems. The symptom constellation, including changes in appetite, nervousness, alterations in mood, headaches, hot flashes, joint and muscle pain, palpitations, and insomnia, is called "menopausal syndrome" (2). With the prolongation of mean survival around the world, women spend about one-third of their lives in menopause. In developed countries, the mean duration of life in women is about 80 years, and they spend 40% of this period in menopause (3). Therefore, a number of complaints and health problems that may arise during this period are becoming increasingly important. Sleep is one of the most important physiological needs for a healthy life and is regarded as an important variable for quality of life and well-being. While the body is able to adapt to some of these menopausal changes, certain complaints, especially those associated with sleep, may continue. According to the US National Institutes of Health, sleep problems occur in 35%-60% of postmenopausal women (4). It is thought that vasomotor symptoms and alterations in hormone levels may trigger sleep problems (5). The role of weight gain in sleep quality in menopause is not clear. Although a higher body mass index (BMI) is strongly linked to short sleep duration in children, data on the influence of BMI on sleep duration in adults are contradictory (6). The aim of the present study is to investigate the incidence of findings regarding quality of sleep and sleep apnea in women who had not undergone hormone replacement therapy after menopause and to research the relationship between sleep complaints and body measurements such as weight and neck circumferences.Background/aim: With an increase in life expectancy, women live about one-third of their lives in the postmenopausal period. Our aim was to investigate the findings regarding quality of sleep and sleep apnea in postmenopausal women and research the relationship between sleep complaints and body measurements. Materials and methods:The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was administered to all participants and their height, weight, and neck circumferences were measured.Results: A total of 206 patients (mean age: 61.4 ± 8.8 years) were included. Their mean weight gain after menopause was 8.1 ± 12.8 kg, and their mean neck circumference and body mass index was 39.7 ± 2.6 cm and 33.4 ± 2.1, respectively. The rate of patients who snored each night increased from 3.4% to 13.2% (P = 0.000) after menopause. The rate of self-reported poor sleep quality was found in 57.8% of patients according to the PSQI global score (≥5). The prevalence of sleep medication usage increased from...

“…Se encontró que el 61,8% informaron no conseguir dormir las horas necesarias, 56,1% que aunque dormían no descansaban y 49,7% desde la levantada estaban cansadas. Cifras similares a las señaladas por otros autores con otras herramientas, lo que permite señalar que la mitad de las mujeres climatéricas tienen percepción de mal dormir, condicionante para deterioro de la CV así como factor de riesgo asociado a algunas enfermedades crónicas, especialmente cardiovascular con impacto en la morbilidad e incluso mortalidad (22)(23)(24). En un estudio a gran escala en 1.078 mujeres colombianas, edad 40-59 años, siendo 86,1% mestizas y 13,9% afrocolombianas, valoradas con el Índice de Calidad del Sueño de Pittsburgh, se estimó prevalencia de mala calidad del sueño del 57,1% (24).…”

Assessment of sleep quality and correlates in a large cohort of Colombian women around menopause

Abstract: Despite study limitations, poor sleep quality is highly prevalent in this large middle-aged Colombian female sample and is related to menopausal symptom severity, tobacco use, and presence of hypertension.
