An ever-increasing burden of non-communicable diseases, especially in the post pandemic times and an association of sleep problems with them highlighted a felt need to estimate the sleep problem in India. A meta-analysis of the studies conducted on Indian data was planned adhering to PRISMA guidelines. An electronic search of available literature was performed on databases including PubMed, Google Scholar, PsycNet, and Epistemonikos. 100 eligible articles were analysed. To assess the methodological quality 10-points Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) checklist for prevalence studies was used. The pooled estimates for prevalence of Insomnia found were 25.7%, OSA 37.4%, and RLS 10.6%. An increased prevalence was seen in patients of diabetes, heart disease patients and in otherwise healthy population. Subgroup analysis showed a higher prevalence in patient population and in the otherwise healthy population too,; e.g. Insomnia 32.3% (95% CI: 18.6% to 49.9%, I2=99.4%) and 15.1% (95% CI: 8.0% to 26.6%, I2=99.1%); OSA 48.1% (95% CI: 36.1% to 60.3%, I2=97.4%) and 14.6% (95% CI: 9.2% to 22.5%, I2=97.4%) and RLS 13.1% (95% CI: 8.7% to 19.3%, I2=91.9%) and 6.6% (95% CI: 2.4% to 16.4%, I2=99.1%) respectively. Excessive daytime sleepiness remained prevalent (19.6%) (95 % CI: 8.4% to 39.1%, I2=99.8%) in the healthy, which was alarming. A multipronged approach for sleep management, evaluation and research is the need of the hour for managing non communicable disorders and for promoting sleep health in the healthy population.

Laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) is a common disorder in patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). This meta-analysis was carried out to evaluate the LPR prevalence in individuals with OSAHS and to analyze the correlation of LPR positivity with the clinical features of patients with OSAHS. A detailed review of the English and Chinese literature on the occurrence of LPR in patients with OSAHS was performed by employing online search tools such as PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, VIP, CNKI, WanFang, etc. Two researchers analyzed the studies for quality according to the STROBE standard checklist. The acquired data were analyzed using Stata 11.0 and R 3.6.1 software. The effect size was estimated and calculated using weighted mean difference (WMD) and correlation coefficients. Moreover, a combined analysis was performed by employing either a random-or fixed-effects model. Ultimately, 27 studies met our inclusion criteria. Our study revealed that the LPR prevalence in OSAHS patients was 49%. We carried out subgroup analyses as per OSAHS severity, ethnicity, and body mass index (BMI). The results suggested that the probability of LPR in European and American patients with OSAHS was higher, and the prevalence of LPR was higher in obese individuals and patients with severe OSAHS. Moreover, apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and BMI were higher in LPR-positive OSAHS patients than in LPR-negative OSAHS patients, but no significant variation in age was observed in the two groups. Moreover, the reflux symptom index (RSI) scores and the reflux finding score (RFS) exhibited a positive correlation with AHI. The current literature shows a higher incidence of LPR in individuals with OSAHS (49%). The severity of AHI in individuals with OSAHS is associated with the presence of LPR. Patients with OSAHS accompanied by LPR showed higher BMI and AHI as compared to those patients with LPR-negative OSAHS.
