Differential and interacting effects of age and sleep restriction on daytime sleepiness and vigilance in adolescence: a longitudinal study.

ABSTRACT: Study Objectives:There is contradictory evidence on whether sleep need decreases across adolescence. We investigated this question longitudinally with a dose-response design to test the effects of varied sleep durations on daytime sleepiness and on vigilance and to test whether these relations change with age across early and mid-adolescence. Methods:Data from 76 participants who completed at least 2 years of the 3-year study are included in this report. Annually, participants ranging in age from 9.8 to 16.2 years completed three different time in bed (TIB) schedules each consisting of four consecutive nights of 7, 8.5, or 10 hours. Daytime sleepiness (multiple sleep latency test [MSLT]) and vigilance (psychomotor vigilance test [PVT]) were measured on the day following the fourth night of each TIB schedule. Results:Electroencephalogram (EEG)-measured sleep durations changed linearly with TIB. MSLT-measured daytime sleepiness decreased with longer TIB and increased with age. The TIB and age effects interacted such that the TIB effect decreased with age. PVT performance improved with longer TIB and improved with age, but the benefit that increased TIB conferred on PVT performance did not change with age. Conclusions:These results seem paradoxical because daytime sleepiness increased but vigilance improved with age. The significant age effect on the relation between TIB and sleepiness compared to the lack of an age effect on the relation between TIB and vigilance performance suggests different rates of maturation in underlying brain systems. We interpret these findings in relation to our model of adolescent brain development driven by synaptic elimination.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Neighborhood characteristics have been linked to health outcomes. Various mechanisms link neighborhoods and health outcomes; sleep patterns may be 1 contributor; however, little is known about the social determinants of disordered sleep. We examined the association of neighborhood characteristics with sleep duration and daytime sleepiness. METHODS:Participants (n = 801) enrolled as pairs (55 without pair), from 10 churches in the Stroke Health and Risk Education project; 760 were included for analysis (41 withdrew). Sleep duration (hours of sleep at night) and daytime sleepiness (adaptation of Berlin questionnaire; range, 0-3 [more daytime sleepiness]) were self-reported. Neighborhood characteristics included disadvantage, per capita violent crime (census tract level), and safety (self-reported and individual level). We fit generalized linear mixed models and multinomial and binomial logistic regression models to examine the associations between neighborhood characteristics and sleep outcomes while accounting for the clustering within churches and pairs, before and after adjustment for self-reported confounders (age, gender, income, education, body mass index, depressive symptoms, hypertension, and diabetes). RESULTS:The mean hours of sleep duration is 6.7 ± 1.2, and the mean daytime sleepiness is 0.8 ± 0.9. Neighborhood characteristics were not associated with sleep duration. Higher perceived neighborhood safety was associated with an 18.4% lower odds of daytime sleepiness in the unadjusted model (odds ratio, 0.82 [95% confidence interval, 0.69-0.96]). The association was attenuated in the fully adjusted model. Neighborhood disadvantage and violent crime were related to lower daytime sleepiness; however, associations were not statistically significant. CONCLUSION:Self-reported neighborhood safety was associated with lower daytime sleepiness. Future exploration of the pathways linking neighborhood characteristics and sleep is warranted.
