Joint effects of self-reported sleep and modifiable physical activity on risk of dyslipidaemia in women aged 45-55 years: a cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Modifiable physical activity (PA) plays an important role in dyslipidaemia risk in middle-aged women with sleep problems, especially perimenopausal women. We aimed to explore the joint effects of sleep and PA on the risk of dyslipidaemia in women aged 45-55 years, and the extent to which PA moderated the effect of sleep on the risk of dyslipidaemia.

Design

A cross-sectional study.

Setting

This study was based on the survey of Chronic Disease and Nutrition Monitoring in Adults in Inner Mongolia in 2015.

Participants

721 women aged 45-55 years were included.

Outcome measurement

PA was measured by the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire. Sleep was measured by questionnaire formulated by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to determine the joint effects of sleep and PA on dyslipidaemia risk. OR and 95% CI were reported.

Results

Among all participants, 60.6% had sleep problems, 29.0% had low PA and 41.1% had dyslipidaemia. Women with sleep problems had higher dyslipidaemia risk than women without sleep problems, irrespective of low, moderate or high PA, with OR (95% CI) of 4.24 (2.40 to 7.49), 3.14 (1.80 to 5.49) and 2.04 (1.20 to 3.48), respectively. PA could not completely attenuate the negative association between sleep and dyslipidaemia risk. With PA increased from low to high, the OR of dyslipidaemia decreased by 2.20. Women with sleep problems and low PA had higher risks of high total cholesterol, high triglyceride, low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol than women without sleep problems and high PA, with OR (95% CI) of 2.51 (1.18 to 5.35), 2.42 (1.23 to 4.74), 2.88 (1.44 to 5.74) and 2.52 (1.12 to 5.70), respectively.

Conclusions

Among women aged 45-55 years, the joint effects of self-reported sleep and PA on dyslipidaemia risk were more marked for sleep than for PA. Modifiable PA is a widely accessible and effective intervention to reduce the dyslipidaemia risk in women with sleep problems, particularly among perimenopausal women.

Project description:BackgroundGeneral practice is well situated to promote physical activity (PA), but with PA levels declining after 45 years of age, often those who are most likely to benefit from interventions tend to be the least likely recruited to participate in research.Aims and rationaleThe aim of this study was to investigate recruitment and reporting of participant demographics in PA trials for adults aged 45 years and above. Specific objectives were: (i) to examine the reporting of demographics of participants; (ii) to investigate the strategies used to recruit these participants; and, (iii) to examine the efficiency of recruitment strategies.MethodsSeven databases were searched, including: PubMed, CINAHL, the Cochrane Library Register of Controlled Trials, Embase, Scopus, PsycINFO, and Web of Science. Only randomized control trials involving adults 45 years old or older recruited through primary care were included. The PRISMA framework for systematic review was followed, which involved 2 researchers independently conducting title, abstract, and full article screening. Tools for data extraction and synthesis were adapted from previous work on inclusivity in recruitment.ResultsThe searches retrieved 3,491 studies of which 12 were included for review. Sample size of the studies ranged from 31 to 1,366, with a total of 6,042 participants of which 57% were female. Of 101 participating practices, 1 was reported as rural. Reporting of recruitment lacked detail-only 6 studies outlined how practices were recruited. 11/12 studies involved a database or chart review to identify participants that met the inclusion criteria, followed by a letter of invitation sent to those people. The studies with higher recruitment efficiency ratios each employed more than 1 recruitment strategy, e.g. opportunistic invitations and telephone calls.ConclusionThis systematic review has presented deficits in the reporting of both demographics and recruitment. Future research should aim for a standardized approach to reporting.

Project description:Obesity increases the risk of heart failure and atrial fibrillation. Left atrial (LA) dysfunction is increasingly recognized as a mediator of cardiovascular disease. Early effects of obesity on LA function have not been examined in large population samples. We quantified LA strain and strain rate (SR) through speckle tracking echocardiography in 1,531 middle-aged community-based participants enrolled in the Asklepios study. We compared LA function between individuals with body mass index (BMI) < 25 kg/m2 (n = 779), 25 to 29.9 kg/m2 (n = 618) and ≥ 30 kg/m2 (n = 134). Significant differences in reservoir longitudinal LA strain (BMI < 25 kg/m2 = 35.3%, BMI 25-29.9 kg/m2 = 33.1%, and BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 = 30.9%; p < 0.00001) strain rate ([SR] BMI < 25 kg/m2 = 151; BMI 25 to 29.9 kg/m2 = 141; and BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 = 135 %/s; p <0.00001) and expansion index (BMI < 25 kg/m2 = 1.6, BMI 25 to 29.9 kg/m2 = 1.4, and BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 = 1.4; p <0.00001) were seen, indicating reduced reservoir function with increasing BMI. Obesity was also associated with impaired LA conduit function, including conduit longitudinal LA strain (BMI < 25 kg/m2 = 21.6%, BMI 25 to 29.9 kg/m2 = 18.9%, and BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 = 16.7%; p <0.00001), SR (BMI < 25 kg/m2 = -189, BMI 25 to 29.9 kg/m2 = 166, and BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 = 150 %/s; p <0.0001) and passive LA emptying fraction (BMI < 25 kg/m2 = 40.5, BMI 25 to 29.9 kg/m2 = 36.5, and BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 = 36%, p <0.00001). These differences persisted after adjustment for age, gender and other potential confounders. In contrast to reservoir and conduit function, obesity was associated with increased booster pump function (active LA emptying fraction: BMI < 25 kg/m2 = 19.4%, BMI 25 to 29.9 kg/m2 = 20.5%, and BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 = 21.5%; p <0.00001). In middle-aged adults, obesity is associated with impaired reservoir and conduit LA function and higher booster function, which may be compensatory. Loss of booster LA function, either because of more advanced LA dysfunction or atrial fibrillation, may play an important role in precipitating heart failure in obese individuals.

Project description:BackgroundRetirement represents a major transitional life stage in middle to older age. Changes in physical activity typically accompany this transition, which has significant consequences for health and well-being. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the evidence for the effect of interventions to promote physical activity in adults aged 55 to 70 years, focusing on studies that reported long-term effectiveness. This systematic review adheres to a registered protocol (PROSPERO CRD42011001459).MethodsRandomized controlled trials of interventions to promote physical activity behavior with a mean/median sample age of 55 to 70 years, published between 2000 and 2010, were identified. Only trials reporting the long-term effect (? 12 months) on objective or self-reported physical activity behavior were included. Trials reporting physiological proxy measures of physical activity were excluded. Meta-analyses were conducted when trials provided sufficient data and sensitivity analyses were conducted to identify potential confounding effects of trials of poor methodological quality or with attrition rates ? 30%.ResultsOf 17,859 publications identified, 32 were included which reported on 21 individual trials. The majority of interventions were multimodal and provided physical activity and lifestyle counselling. Interventions to promote physical activity were effective at 12 months (standardized mean difference (SMD) = 1.08, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.16 to 1.99, pedometer step-count, approximating to an increase of 2,197 steps per day; SMD = 0.19, 95% CI = 0.10 to 0.28, self-reported physical activity duration outcome), but not at 24 months based on a small subset of trials. There was no evidence for a relationship between intervention effectiveness and mode of delivery or number of intervention contacts; however, interventions which involved individually tailoring with personalized activity goals or provision of information about local opportunities in the environment may be more effective.ConclusionsInterventions in adults aged 55 to 70 years led to long term improvements in physical activity at 12 months; however, maintenance beyond this is unclear. Identified physical activity improvements are likely to have substantial health benefits in reducing the risk of age-related illnesses. These findings have important implications for community-based public health interventions in and around the retirement transition.
