Body Silhouette Trajectories Over the Lifespan and Insomnia Symptoms: The Paris Prospective Study 3.

ABSTRACT: Insomnia symptoms are highly prevalent and associated with several adverse medical conditions, but only few determinants, including non-modifiable ones, have been highlighted. We investigated associations between body silhouette trajectories over the lifespan and insomnia symptoms in adulthood. From a community-based study, 7 496 men and women aged 50-75 years recalled their body silhouette at age 8, 15, 25, 35 and 45, and rated the frequency of insomnia symptoms on a standardized sleep questionnaire. An Epworth Sleepiness Scale ?11 defined excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS). Using a group-based trajectory modeling, we identified five body silhouette trajectories: a 'lean-stable' (32.7%), a 'heavy-stable' (8.1%), a 'moderate-stable' (32.5%), a 'lean-increase' (11%) and a 'lean-marked increase' (15.7%) trajectory. In multivariate logistic regression, compared to the 'lean-stable' trajectory, the 'lean-marked increase' and 'heavy-stable' trajectories were associated with a significant increased odd of having ?1 insomnia symptoms as compared to none and of having a proxy for insomnia disorder (?1 insomnia symptom and EDS). The association with the 'lean-marked increase' trajectory' was independent from body mass index measured at study recruitment. In conclusion, increasing body silhouette over the lifespan is associated with insomnia symptoms in adulthood, emphasizing the importance of weight gain prevention during the entire lifespan.

Project description:Psychiatric distress and insomnia symptoms exhibit similar patterning by gender and socioeconomic position. Prospective evidence indicates a bi-directional relationship between psychiatric distress and insomnia symptoms so similarities in social patterning may not be coincidental. Treatment for insomnia can also improve distress outcomes. We investigate the extent to which the prospective patterning of distress over 20 years is associated with insomnia symptoms over that period.999 respondents to the Twenty-07 Study had been followed for 20 years from approximately ages 36-57 (73.2% of the living baseline sample). Psychiatric distress was measured using the GHQ-12 at baseline and at 20-year follow-up. Gender and social class were ascertained at baseline. Insomnia symptoms were self-reported approximately every five years. Latent class analysis was used to classify patterns of insomnia symptoms over the 20 years. Structural Equation Models were used to assess how much of the social patterning of distress was associated with insomnia symptoms. Missing data was addressed with a combination of multiple-imputation and weighting.Patterns of insomnia symptoms over 20 years were classified as either healthy, episodic, developing or chronic. Respondents from a manual social class were more likely to experience episodic, developing or chronic patterns than those from non-manual occupations but this was mostly explained by baseline psychiatric distress. People in manual occupations experiencing psychiatric distress however were particularly likely to experience chronic patterns of insomnia symptoms. Women were more likely to experience a developing pattern than men, independent of baseline distress. Psychiatric distress was more persistent over the 20 years for those in manual social classes and this effect disappeared when adjusting for insomnia symptoms. Irrespective of baseline symptoms, women, and especially those in a manual social class, were more likely than men to experience distress at age 57. This overall association for gender, but not the interaction with social class, was explained after adjusting for insomnia symptoms. Sensitivity analyses supported these findings.Gender and socioeconomic inequalities in psychiatric distress are strongly associated with inequalities in insomnia symptoms. Treatment of insomnia or measures to promote healthier sleeping may therefore help alleviate inequalities in psychiatric distress.

Project description:BackgroundThere are gaps in understanding longitudinal patterns and predictors of perinatal depressive symptoms in sub-Saharan Africa. This study aimed to explore trajectories of depressive symptoms and associated factors from pregnancy to 9 months post partum among Kenyan women.MethodsIn this prospective cohort study, we analysed data from the PrEP Implementation for Mothers in Antenatal Care (PrIMA) study in which HIV-negative women were enrolled in pregnancy and followed up to 9 months post partum in 20 public sector maternal-child health clinics in western Kenya. Pregnant women were eligible for enrolment if they were not infected with HIV, aged 15 years or older, and were able to provide consent. Eligible participants were screened and enrolled between Jan 15, 2018, and July 31, 2019, and followed up to 9 months post partum, with the last participant study visit conducted on Jan 15, 2021. Study nurses serially assessed depressive symptoms using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CESD-10), intimate partner violence with the Hurt, Insult, Threaten, Scream scale, and social support with the Medical Outcomes Study scale. Generalised estimating equations were used to identify correlates of moderate-to-severe depressive symptoms (CESD-10 score ≥10) and group-based trajectory modelling identified discrete trajectories of perinatal depressive symptoms.FindingsAmong 4447 participants in the main PrIMA study, 3555 had complete depressive symptom data in pregnancy and depressive symptom data post partum and were included in the primary analysis. Median age was 24·0 years (IQR 21·0-28·7), 1330 (38%) participants had low social support, and 278 (8%) reported intimate partner violence in pregnancy. All participants (100%) were female and all (100%) were of African Kenyan ethnicity. Prevalence of moderate-to-severe depressive symptoms was higher in pregnancy than post partum (870 [24·5%; 95% CI 23·1-25·9] vs 597 [6·8%; 15·6-18·1]; p<0·0001). Five patterns of depressive symptoms were identified; persistent moderate-to-severe depressive symptoms in pregnancy and post partum (295 [8·3%]), moderate-to-severe depressive symptoms in pregnancy that resolved post partum (139 [3·9%]), moderate-to-severe depressive symptoms that emerged post partum (40 [1·1%]), chronically mild symptoms (2709 [76·2%]), and no depressive symptoms (372 [10·5%]). Emergent moderate-to-severe depressive symptoms were associated with older age. Emergent, persistent, and resolving moderate-to-severe depressive symptoms were associated with intimate partner violence during pregnancy; and persistent and resolving moderate-to-severe depressive symptoms were associated with low social support and high HIV risk (all p<0·05). Moderate-to-severe depressive symptom risk was significantly increased with intimate partner violence (adjusted odds ratio 2·07 [95% CI 1·81-2·31]; p<0·0001), low social support (1·74 [1·56-1·95]; p<0·0001), and partner HIV-positive status (1·48 [1·22-1·78]; p<0·0001). 23·34% (95% CI 18·77-27·65) of cases of perinatal moderate-to-severe depressive symptoms were attributable to low social support.InterpretationOne third of women had perinatal moderate-to-severe depressive symptoms; nearly half of these had higher severity phenotypes of resolving, persistent, and emerging moderate-to-severe depressive symptoms that might require tailored interventions. Perinatal women with comorbid psychosocial stressors such as intimate partner violence and previous pregnancy loss should be prioritised for mental health services that augment social support within routine maternal-child health care.FundingNational Institutes of Health.TranslationFor the Kiswahili translation of the abstract see Supplementary Materials section.

Project description:Body image disturbance is associated with several mental disorders. Previous research on body image has focused mostly on women, largely neglecting body image in men. Moreover, only a small number of studies have conducted gender comparisons of body image over the lifespan and included participants aged 50 years and older. With regard to measurement, body image has often been assessed only in terms of body dissatisfaction, disregarding further aspects such as body appreciation or the importance of appearance. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to explore different aspects of body image in the general German-speaking population and to compare men and women of various ages. Participants completed an online survey comprising questionnaires about body image. Body dissatisfaction, importance of appearance, the number of hours per day participants would invest and the number of years they would sacrifice to achieve their ideal appearance, and body appreciation were assessed and analyzed with respect to gender and age differences. We hypothesized that body dissatisfaction and importance of appearance would be higher in women than in men, that body dissatisfaction would remain stable across age in women, and that importance of appearance would be lower in older women compared to younger women. Body appreciation was predicted to be higher in men than in women. General and generalized linear models were used to examine the impact of age and gender. In line with our hypotheses, body dissatisfaction was higher in women than in men and was unaffected by age in women, and importance of appearance was higher in women than in men. However, only in men did age predict a lower level of the importance of appearance. Compared to men, women stated that they would invest more hours of their lives to achieve their ideal appearance. For both genders, age was a predictor of the number of years participants would sacrifice to achieve their ideal appearance. Contrary to our assumption, body appreciation improved and was higher in women across all ages than in men. The results seem to suggest that men's and women's body image are dissimilar and appear to vary across different ages.
