“…In the present study, depression symptoms were the second most potent predictors of sleep quality. This finding is similar to that of a study of 817 elderly people, in which the prevalence of depression increased with deteriorating sleep quality [30].…”

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the second leading cause of death among Korean women, and its incidence is dramatically elevated in middle-aged women. This study aimed to identify the predictors of sleep quality, a CVD risk factor, in middle-aged women with CVD risk factors to provide foundational data for developing intervention strategies for the prevention of CVD. The subjects, 203 middle-aged women (40–65 years old) with one or more CVD risk factors were selected through convenience sampling and included in this descriptive correlational study. The effects of somatic symptoms, depression symptoms, and sedentary time on sleep quality were examined. CVD-related characteristics were analyzed using descriptive statistics, whereas the mean values of the independent variables were analyzed using t-tests and analysis of variance. Predictors of sleep quality were analyzed using multiple regression analysis. The results showed that sleep quality increased with decreasing somatic symptoms (β = −0.36, p < 0.001), depression symptom score (β = −0.17, p = 0.023), and daily sedentary time (β = −0.13, p = 0.041), and the regression model was significant (F = 19.80, p < 0.001). Somatic symptoms are the most potent predictors of sleep quality in middle-aged women. Thus, intervention strategies that improve somatic symptoms are crucial for the enhancement of sleep quality, which deteriorates with advancing age.

“…This shows that higher the depressive symptoms, higher would be the sleep disturbances. This finding was supported by previous study conducted by Tu (Hu, et al, 2020). Some authors argue that Insomnia causes depression (Johnson, Roth & Breslau, 2006).…”

Thus, this study focused on “Perceived Social Support, Depression and Insomnia among Nursing Staffs during COVID-19”. Objectives of the study is to explore the levels of depression and insomnia among nursing staffs during the pandemic situation and in finding the relationship between Perceived Social Support,Depression and Insomnia among Nursing Staffs during COVID-19. The hypothesis of the current study is that there will be a significant relationship between Perceived Social Support and Depression among nursing staffs,there will be a significant relationship between Perceived Social Support and insomnia among nursing staffs and there will be a significant relationship between Depression and Insomnia among nursing staffs. Nature of the study was quantitative and purposive sampling technique was used to collect data. Data was collected through Google forms around Chennai using the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 and Athens Insomnia Scale from a sample of 51 nursing staffs. Data were analysed using Pearson's Coefficient of Correlation through SPSS Software. Results showed that there is a significant negative relationship between perceived social support and depression.There is no statistically significant relationship between perceived social support and insomnia.There is a significant positive relationship between depression and insomnia.The present study gave insight about the importance of social support especially during the pandemic situation. Intervention for depression and insomnia are recommended in the phase of the current pandemic.

“…Sleep quality is an important risk factor for depression. 31 A large proportion of seafarers reported no good sleep or having sleep disruptions, especially seafarers on international voyages who often experience 'jet lag'. 32 In addition, seafarers' work follows a shift system; the overtime work resulting from crew change restrictions during the global epidemic affects the quality of sleep, increasing psychological burden and causing mental diseases.…”

BackgroundTo curb the spread of COVID-19, most countries have adopted measures such as banning shore leave at ports and placed restrictions on crew change. Seafarers may bear an excess pressure during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and risk factors associated with depression symptoms among Chinese seafarers during the COVID-19 pandemic.DesignCross-sectional study.MethodsThis field survey-based study was conducted at Rongcheng Port, Shandong Province, China, from 10 June 2020 to 25 July 2020. Sociodemographic and occupational characteristics and health-related behaviours were collected through a face-to-face questionnaire. The Self-Rating Depression Scale was used to evaluate depression status during the preceding week. Logistic regression models were used to explore factors related to depression.Results441 male Chinese seafarers were enrolled. Overall, the proportions of seafarers with low, moderate and severe depression symptoms were 23.35%, 9.30% and 9.07%, respectively. Compared with those with good self-rated health (SRH), seafarers with poor SRH had higher odds of depression (OR, 2.24, 95% CI 1.22 to 4.11). Less leisure time or physical exercise was associated with more severe self-reported depression symptoms (1–3 per week vs ≥4 per week: OR, 1.72, 95% CI 0.71 to 4.14; none vs ≥4 per week: OR, 3.93, 95% CI 1.67 to 9.26). Poor sleep quality was associated with higher likelihood of reporting severe depression (fair vs good: OR, 2.78, 95% CI 1.54 to 5.01; poor vs good: OR, 4.30, 95% CI 1.65 to 11.24). The more frequent seafarers worked overtime a week, the higher the likelihood of reporting severe depression symptoms (1–2 per week vs none: OR, 1.82, 95% CI 1.04 to 3.18; ≥3 per week vs none: OR, 2.49, 95% CI 1.05 to 5.92). Also, high perceived work stress was linked to higher odds of being depressed (intermediate vs low: OR, 2.06, 95% CI 0.78 to 5.46; high vs low: OR, 3.83, 95% CI 1.35 to 10.90).ConclusionsThere is a high burden of depression associated with COVID-19 among seafarers. Special interventions that protect the mental health of seafarers are more critical than ever in the context of the pandemic.
