“…To obtain accurate HPV infection data, we used the Roche Linear Array HPV Genotyping Test. The reason for choosing this test is that it can accurately distinguish and detect multiple HPV types, totaling 37 (including 6,11,16,18,26,31,33,35,39,40,42,45,51,52,53,54,55,56,58,59,61,62,64,66,67,68,69,70,71,72,73,81,82,83,84,89,and IS39). We defined a positive result for any type as an HPV infection.…”

“…Our study also found that compared to short sleep duration, people with long sleep duration (over 9 hours) tend to have a higher risk of HPV infection. For example, one study showed that long sleep duration is associated with an increased probability of throat and ear infections, while another meta-analysis found no significant association between sleep duration over 9 hours and upper respiratory tract infections [26,27]. Although these studies target different types of infections, they may imply the impact of long sleep duration on the body's immune function.…”

Purpose This study aims to investigate the relationship between sleep factors (sleep duration time [SDT] and obstructive sleep apnea [OSA]) and human papillomavirus (HPV)/high-risk HPV(HR-HPV) infection, utilizing data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Methods We conducted a cross-sectional analysis using NHANES data, focusing on SDT and OSA’s association with HPV/HR-HPV infection. The primary statistical methods included weighted multivariate linear regression and logistic regression to assess the association between SDT, OSA, and HPV/HR-HPV infection. The study employed restricted cubic splines (RCS) for evaluating potential non-linear relationships between SDT and HPV/HR-HPV infection. Subgroup analyses were conducted. Interaction terms were used to examine the heterogeneity in associations across different subgroups. Results The study identified a U-shaped relationship between SDT and HPV infection. Specifically, 7 hours of sleep was associated with the lowest risk of HPV infection. In comparison, SDT less than 7 hours resulted in a 26.3% higher risk of HPV infection (Odds Ratio [OR] = 1.26, 95% Confidence Interval [CI]: 1.029, 1.549), and more than 9 hours of sleep showed a 57.4% increased risk (OR = 1.574, 95% CI: 1.116, 2.220). The relationship between SDT and HR-HPV infection was significant in the first two models, but not in the fully adjusted model. No significant interaction was found between sleep duration and other covariates. There was no association between OSA and HPV/HR-HPV infection. Conclusion The study underscores the complex relationship between sleep duration and HPV infection risk, suggesting both very short and very long sleep durations may increase HPV infection likelihood. The findings highlight the need for further research to explore the biological mechanisms underpinning this association and to consider broader population groups and more precise sleep assessment methods in future studies.

“…However, among participants with symptoms at seven months a higher BIS score and higher prevalence of insomnia cases is observed compared to those who no longer were symptomatic. We are not able to establish whether insomnia in our study population exists as a consequence of the SARS-CoV-2 infection itself, because of pandemic related societal or socioeconomic factors or if COVID-19 increases the likelihood of insomnia [23]. During the pandemic insomnia has been shown to vary with social invasiveness of lockdown measures [24,25], and occur more often among persons with comorbidities, anxiety and/or depression and lower age [26].…”

Purpose To perform an extensive investigation of the clinical features and long-term complications among the n = 134 adults and children with nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) verified SARS-CoV-2-infection in the immunologically naïve population of Ulvik, Norway, during the single variant B.1.1.7 outbreak in late January through February 2021. Methods Every infected person regardless of whether symptoms of COVID-19 were present was invited to answer a web-based questionnaire at two- and seven months after testing positive. The period from initial infection to the first questionnaire was assessed retrospectively, and the time points at two- and seven months were assessed prospectively. Results A total of 87 of 134 (65%) NAAT-positive persons answered the first questionnaire, of which 35/87 (40%) were children, and 74 of 87 (85%) answered the second questionnaire. Children experienced symptoms less often than adults during the acute phase of infection (51% (18/35) versus 81% (42/52) (p = .004)). At two-months follow-up 88% (53/60) of participants with symptoms during the acute phase, including all children, reported no longer having symptoms. Among those with persisting symptoms at seven months, fatigue (18/25) and insomnia (16/24) were common. Conclusion In an immunologically naïve population infected with the SARS-CoV-2 B.1.1.7 variant, the clinical features of acute phase symptoms were similar to previous studies. Children underwent asymptomatic infection more often than adults, and adults more often experienced persisting symptoms. Insomnia and fatigue were common complaints among those with persisting symptoms seven months after infection.
