Association Between Dietary Protein Intake and Sleep Quality in Middle-Aged and Older Adults in Singapore.

ABSTRACT: Poor sleep has been associated with the increased risk of developing detrimental health conditions. Diet and certain nutrients, such as dietary protein (PRO) may improve sleep. This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the relationship between PRO intake, their amino acid components, and sources with sleep quality in middle-aged and older adults residing in Singapore. A dataset of 104 healthy subjects between the age of 50 and 75 years old were used. Collected data included 3-day food record and sleep quality [sleep duration, global sleep score (GSS), sleep latency (SL), and sleep efficiency (SE)]. The collected 3-day food records were extracted for PRO, tryptophan (Trp), and large neutral amino acid (LNAA) intake. PRO intake was further categorized into plant and animal PRO. A multivariate multiple linear regression (MLR) was performed to assess the association between PRO intake and sleep quality. Dietary Trp:LNAA ratio was positively associated with sleep duration (β_total: 108.234 h; p: 0.005) after multiple covariates adjustment. Similarly, plant Trp (β_plant: 2.653 h/g; p: 0.020) and plant Trp:LNAA (β_plant: 54.006 h; p: 0.008) was positively associated with sleep duration. No significant associations were observed for both SL and SE. Sleep duration in middle-aged and older Singaporean adults was positively associated with dietary Trp and Trp:LNAA, especially when obtained from plant sources.

Project description:ImportanceRapid eye movement (REM) sleep has been linked with health outcomes, but little is known about the relationship between REM sleep and mortality.ObjectiveTo investigate whether REM sleep is associated with greater risk of mortality in 2 independent cohorts and to explore whether another sleep stage could be driving the findings.Design, setting, and participantsThis multicenter population-based cross-sectional study used data from the Outcomes of Sleep Disorders in Older Men (MrOS) Sleep Study and Wisconsin Sleep Cohort (WSC). MrOS participants were recruited from December 2003 to March 2005, and WSC began in 1988. MrOS and WSC participants who had REM sleep and mortality data were included. Analysis began May 2018 and ended December 2019.Main outcomes and measuresAll-cause and cause-specific mortality confirmed with death certificates.ResultsThe MrOS cohort included 2675 individuals (2675 men [100%]; mean [SD] age, 76.3 [5.5] years) and was followed up for a median (interquartile range) of 12.1 (7.8-13.2) years. The WSC cohort included 1386 individuals (753 men [54.3%]; mean [SD] age, 51.5 [8.5] years) and was followed up for a median (interquartile range) of 20.8 (17.9-22.4) years. MrOS participants had a 13% higher mortality rate for every 5% reduction in REM sleep (percentage REM sleep SD = 6.6%) after adjusting for multiple demographic, sleep, and health covariates (age-adjusted hazard ratio, 1.12; fully adjusted hazard ratio, 1.13; 95% CI, 1.08-1.19). Results were similar for cardiovascular and other causes of death. Possible threshold effects were seen on the Kaplan-Meier curves, particularly for cancer; individuals with less than 15% REM sleep had a higher mortality rate compared with individuals with 15% or more for each mortality outcome with odds ratios ranging from 1.20 to 1.35. Findings were replicated in the WSC cohort despite younger age, inclusion of women, and longer follow-up (hazard ratio, 1.17; 95% CI, 1.03-1.34). A random forest model identified REM sleep as the most important sleep stage associated with survival.Conclusions and relevanceDecreased percentage REM sleep was associated with greater risk of all-cause, cardiovascular, and other noncancer-related mortality in 2 independent cohorts.

Project description:Study objectivesWe aimed (1) to investigate the effect of a 12-week exercise training on sleep quality and heart rate variability in middle-aged and older adults with poor sleep quality and (2) to examine the factors associated with the improvements in sleep quality and heart rate variability parameters.MethodsForty adults aged ≥ 40 years with poor sleep quality (mean age = 62 years; 82.5% female) participated in this study. They were randomized into the exercise group or control group. Each exercise training program consisted of 40 minutes of supervised aerobic exercise training and 10 minutes of stretching class, 3 times a week for 12 weeks. Outcome measures included both subjective (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index) and objective (actigraphy recordings) sleep quality assessments, a cardiopulmonary exercise test, and heart rate variability assessment.ResultsThe exercise group showed significant improvements in the global score (P = .003), on all subscales of Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (P < .05), and in some heart rate variability parameters compared to the control group. Multiple regression analysis indicated that exercise participation was associated with either the sleep quality (β = -0.617, R² = .407; F = 6.226, P < .001) or heart rate monitor high frequency normalized units (β = 0.503, R² = .225; F = 3.200, P = .003) after adjustment for basic characteristics. However, the statistical significance between exercise participation and heart rate monitor high frequency normalized units diminished after controlling for the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index.ConclusionsOur results indicated that moderate-intensity exercise training had a beneficial effect on sleep quality and cardiac autonomic function. Middle-aged and older adults with poor sleep quality should be encouraged to engage in a moderate-intensity aerobic exercise training to improve their sleep quality and cardiac autonomic function.Clinical trial registrationRegistry: ClinicalTrials.gov; Name: The Effects of Exercise Training in Community-dwelling Elderly With Sleep Disturbances With Follow-up; URL: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03005990; Identifier: NCT03005990.

Project description:BackgroundMultimorbidity and sleep disorder possess high incidence rates in the middle-aged and older people populations, posing a significant threat to quality of life and physical and mental health. However, investigators have previously only analysed the unidirectional association between sleep status and multimorbidity. We aimed to investigate bidirectional associations between sleep quality or duration and multimorbidity in middle-aged and older Chinese adults from a longitudinal perspective.MethodWe enrolled a total of 9823 participants 45 years and older from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study from 2015 to 2018 in our study. Multimorbidity was defined as two or more coexisting chronic diseases in the same individual based on 14 self-reported disease questions. Sleep quality was classified as "good" (restless < 1 day per week) and "poor" (restless ≥ 1 days per week); and sleep duration was divided into short (< 6 h), medium (6-9 h), and long (> 9 h). The bidirectional association between multimorbidity and sleep condition was examined using multivariate logistic regression models with adjustments for covariates.ResultsIndividuals with poor sleep quality showed a significantly higher prevalence of multimorbidity in the future. The adjusted OR (95% CI) values of individuals with poor sleep quality with respect to developing two diseases, three diseases, and ≥ 4 diseases were 1.39 (1.19, 1.63), 1.56 (1.23, 2.03), and 2.36 (1.68, 3.33), respectively. In addition, individuals with multimorbidity exhibited a significantly higher risk of poor sleep quality in the future. Short sleep duration led to multimorbidity in the future (OR = 1.49; 95 CI%, 1.37-1.63), while multimorbidity contributed to short sleep duration (< 6 h) in the future (OR = 1.39; 95% CI, 1.27-1.51) after full adjustment.ConclusionsThere was a bidirectional association between sleep quality or short sleep duration and multimorbidity in middle-aged and older Chinese adults. We recommend that greater attention be given to clinical management among adults with sleep disorders or physical multimorbidities.
