Associations between anxiety, sleep, and blood pressure parameters in pregnancy: a prospective pilot cohort study.

Background: The potential effect modification of sleep on the relationship between anxiety and elevated blood pressure (BP) in pregnancy is understudied. We evaluated the relationship between anxiety, insomnia, and short sleep duration, as well as any interaction effects between these variables, on BP during pregnancy.

Methods: This was a prospective pilot cohort of pregnant people between 23 to 36 weeks' gestation at a single institution between 2021 and 2022.

Evaluation of Sleep in Pregnant Inpatients Compared With Outpatients.

Objective: To evaluate whether antepartum hospitalization was associated with differences in sleep duration or disrupted sleep patterns.

Methods: This was a prospective cohort study with enrollment of pregnant people aged 18-55 years with singleton gestations at 16 weeks of gestation or more between 2021 and 2022. Each enrolled antepartum patient was matched by gestational age to outpatients recruited from obstetric clinics at the same institution.

Prevalence and predictors for postpartum sleep disorders: a nationwide analysis.

Objective: To describe the prevalence and predictors of postpartum sleep disorders.

Design: A retrospective cohort study.

Setting: Postpartum.

A systematic review of patient-reported outcome measures used to assess sleep in postpartum women using Consensus Based Standards for the Selection of Health Measurement Instruments (COSMIN) guidelines.

Study Objectives: We performed a systematic review to identify the best patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) of postpartum sleep in women.

Methods: We searched four databases for validated PROMs used to assess postpartum sleep. Studies were considered if they evaluated at least one psychometric measurement property of a PROM.

Factors associated with fatigue in patients with insomnia.

Although fatigue is common in insomnia, the clinical associates of fatigue in patients with insomnia are largely unknown. We aimed to investigate the clinical associates of fatigue in patients with insomnia. Patients visiting the Stanford Sleep Medicine Center completed the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), Insomnia Symptom Questionnaire (ISQ), the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS), the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), and the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9).
