The multidimensionality of sleep in population-based samples: A narrative review
Publication year: 2022

https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jsr.13608
Abstract/Results: The identification of optimal sleep duration recommendations for the general population has long been an important goal on the public health agenda, as both short and long sleep duration have been linked to unfavourable health outcomes. Yet, sleep is more than duration alone and can be described across multiple domains, such as timing, regularity, satisfaction, alertness, and efficiency. We reviewed observational population-based studies that examined differences in age, sex, and origin across multiple dimensions of sleep. Reviewed literature suggests an increasing prevalence of insomnia symptoms, shorter and less deep sleep in old age. Overall, women report poorer sleep quality than men despite objective measures revealing shorter and more fragmented sleep in men. Minorities generally have poorer quantity and quality of sleep, but multi-ethnic studies have reported mixed results regarding the subjective experience of sleep. In sum, effects of age, sex and origin differ across sleep dimensions, thereby suggesting that the multidimensionality of sleep and how these different aspects interact should be studied across individuals. Studies should include both self-reported measures and objective assessments in diverse population-based samples, as both aspects are important to understand sleep health in the general population. Data-driven descriptions could provide researchers and clinicians with insights into how well individuals are sleeping and offer concrete targets for promotion of sleep health across the population.

A longitudinal study of stress during pregnancy, children's sleep and polygenic risk for poor sleep in the general pediatric population
Publication year: 2023

https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10802-023-01097-2
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Early life stress is robustly associated with poor sleep across life. Preliminary studies suggest that these associations may begin already in utero. Here, we study the longitudinal associations of prenatal psychosocial stress with sleep across childhood, and assess whether prenatal stress interacts with genetic liability for poor sleep.
The study is embedded in the Generation R population-based birth cohort. Caregivers reported on prenatal psychosocial stress (life events, contextual, parental or interpersonal stressors) and on children’s sleep at ages 2 months, 1.5, 2, 3 and 6 years. The study sample consisted of 4,930 children; polygenic risk scores for sleep traits were available in 2,063.
Prenatal stress was consistently associated with more sleep problems across assessments. Effect sizes ranged from small (B = 0.21, 95%CI: 0.14;0.27) at 2 months to medium (B = 0.45, 95%CI: 0.38;0.53) at 2 years. Prenatal stress was moreover associated with shorter sleep duration at 2 months (Bhrs = -0.22, 95%CI: -0.32;-0.12) and at 2 years (Bhrs = -0.04, 95%CI -0.07; -0.001), but not at 3 years (Bhrs = 0.02, 95%CI: -0.02;0.06). Prenatal negative life events interacted with polygenic risk for insomnia to exacerbate sleep problems at 6 years (Binteraction = 0.07, 95%CI: 0.02;0.13).
Psychosocial stress during pregnancy has negative associations with children’s sleep that persist across childhood, and are exacerbated by genetic liability for insomnia. Associations with sleep duration were more pronounced in infancy and seem to attenuate with age. These findings highlight the role of the prenatal environment for developing sleep regulation, and could inform early intervention programs targeting sleep in children from high-risk pregnancies.

ABSTRACT:
Early life stress is robustly associated with poor sleep across life. Preliminary studies suggest that these associations may begin already in utero. Here, we study the longitudinal associations of prenatal psychosocial stress with sleep across childhood, and assess whether prenatal stress interacts with genetic liability and cortisol levels for poor sleep.
The study is embedded in the Generation R population-based birth cohort. Caregivers reported on prenatal psychosocial stress (life events, contextual, parental or interpersonal stressors) and on children’s sleep at ages 2 months, 1.5, 2, 3 and 6 years. The study sample consisted of 4,930 children; polygenic risk scores for sleep traits were available in 2,063. In a subsample (n=1500) we also analyzed interactions between prenatal psychosocial stress and hair cortisol levels on sleep pre-adolescence. Prenatal stress was consistently associated with more sleep problems across assessments. Effect sizes ranged from small (B = 0.21, 95%CI: 0.14;0.27) at 2 months to medium (B = 0.45, 95%CI: 0.38;0.53) at 2 years. Prenatal stress was moreover associated with shorter sleep duration at 2 months (Bhrs = -0.22, 95%CI: -0.32;-0.12) and at 2 years (Bhrs = -0.04, 95%CI -0.07; -0.001), but not at 3 years (Bhrs = 0.02, 95%CI: -0.02;0.06). Prenatal negative life events interacted with polygenic risk for insomnia to exacerbate sleep problems at 6 years (Binteraction = 0.07, 95%CI: 0.02;0.13). Associations between prenatal stress and sleep in preadolescence were not modified by cortisol levels.
Psychosocial stress during pregnancy has negative associations with children’s sleep that persist across childhood, and areexacerbated by genetic liability for insomnia. Associations with sleep duration were more pronounced in infancy and seem to attenuate with age. These findings highlight the role of the prenatal environment for developing sleep regulation, and could inform early intervention programs targeting sleep in children from high-risk pregnancies.

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Introduction: Early life stress is robustly associated with poor sleep across life. Preliminary studies suggest that these associations may
begin already in utero.
Objectives: We study the longitudinal associations of prenatal psychosocial stress with sleep across childhood, and assess whether prenatal
stress interacts with genetic liability for poor sleep.
Methods: The study is embedded in the Generation R populationbased birth cohort. Caregivers reported on prenatal psychosocial
stress (life events, contextual, parental or interpersonal stress) and on children’s sleep at ages 2 months, 1.5, 2, 3 and 6 years. The study
sample consisted of 4,930 children; polygenic risk scores for sleep traits were available in 2,063.
Results: Prenatal stress was consistently associated with more sleep problems across assessments. Effect sizes ranged from small
(B = 0.21, 95%CI: 0.14; 0.27) at 2 months to medium (B = 0.45, 95% CI: 0.38; 0.53) at 2 years. Prenatal stress was moreover associated
with shorter sleep duration at 2 months (Bhrs = 0.22, 95%CI: 0.32;0.12) and at 2 years (Bhrs = 0.04, 95%CI - 0.07; 0.001), but not at 3 years (Bhrs = 0.02, 95%CI: 0.02;0.06). Prenatal negative life events interacted with polygenic risk for insomnia to exacerbate sleep problems at 6 years (Binteraction = 0.07, 95%CI: 0.02; 0.13).
Conclusions: Psychosocial stress during pregnancy has negative effects on children’s sleep that persist across childhood, and are exacerbated
by genetic liability for insomnia. Effects on sleep duration were more pronounced in infancy and seem to attenuate with age. These findings highlight the role of the prenatal environment for developing sleep regulation, and could inform early intervention programs targeting sleep in children from high-risk pregnancies.-riskehavio
