SUMMARYObjective: Sleep quality is strongly associated with parameters of mental and physical health and therefore a major public health issue. We wanted to evaluate this association in young and healthy students by a survey. Further, we aimed to detect the relevance of sleep onset latency and sleep duration for sleep quality.Methods: A group of young nursing and technical students was surveyed (N=196) with the objective to measure subjective sleep quality, sleep onset latency, sleep duration, depression score, physical symptoms, trait-anxiety, and pathological eating behaviours.Results: Subjective sleep quality was strongly negative correlated with depression score (Pearson's r=−0.57), physical symptoms (r=−0.51) and trait-anxiety (r=−0.54) (p<0.001 for all three). Subjective sleep quality's association with sleep onset latency was stronger than with sleep duration. Further, high depression score (odds ratio OR=3.90; 95% confidence interval CI=1.88-8.06) and long sleep onset latency (OR=3.56; 95%CI=1.65-7.69) were the best predictors of poor subjective sleep quality.Conclusions: This study supports evidence that links physical and mental symptoms with poor sleep quality. Especially important is the fact that we found this connection in young and basically healthy adults. Taking into account that poor sleep quality has major negative long term impact on health, prevention programmes should focus especially on the association between depressive symptoms and subjective sleep quality that is significantly influenced by sleep onset latency.

“…Poor sleep is associated with a range of adverse health outcomes including depression, obesity, hypertension, metabolic syndrome, and all-cause mortality (Algul et al 2009;Cappuccio et al 2010;Ohayon 2009;Vgontzas et al 1998). These associations are likely to be bi-directional such that poor sleep impacts on poor psychological functioning, particularly in mood disorders such as depression (Breslau et al 1996;Ford and Kamerow 1989); yet sleep disturbances are also likely to be a consequence of an underlying condition, and so poses as a significant public health problem.…”

Nonshared Environmental Influences on Sleep Quality: A Study of Monozygotic Twin Differences

et al. 2011

Research has consistently demonstrated that environmental influences are important for explaining the variability in sleep quality observed in the general population. Although there is substantial evidence assessing associations between sleep quality and a host of environmental variables, it is possible that their effects are mediated by genetic influence. A monozygotic twin differences design was used to assess the specific contribution of nonshared environmental influences on sleep quality, whilst controlling for genetic and shared environmental effects in a sample of 380 monozygotic twins (mean age 19.8 years, SD=1.26, range=18-22 years). Participants completed the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and questionnaires assessing several candidate "environmental" measures. When controlling for genetic and shared environmental effects, within monozygotic twin-pair differences in sleep quality were associated with within monozygotic twin-pair differences in general health for males (β=1.56, p<.001) and relationship satisfaction for females (β=1.01, p<.05). For the remaining environmental measures the results suggest that these seemingly "environmental" influences are actually in part dependent on genetics and/or the shared environment. These findings give insight into how specific environments affect sleep and the possible mechanisms behind these associations.

Evaluation of General Psychopathology, Subjective Sleep Quality, and Health-Related Quality of Life in Patients with Obesity

Abstract: Obesity is associated with psychological distress, poor sleep quality, and reduced quality of life. Thus, obesity should be evaluated in a biopsychosocial manner, including management of patients' psychopathology.
