Objective: The present cross-sectional study investigated the relationship between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) levels and the presence of poor sleep quality in a community-based Japanese adult population.
Methods: Poor sleep quality, defined as poor subjective sleep quality and/or use of sleep medications, was assessed using a self-administered questionnaire. The prevalence of poor sleep quality was compared among 512 Japanese participants aged 35-79 years, based on serum 25(OH)D levels, which were determined using tandem mass spectrometry. A logistic regression model was used to calculate the odds ratios (ORs) for the presence of poor sleep quality in each group with the highest quartile of 25(OH)D serving as the reference group.
Results: Poor sleep quality was reported by 33.2% of the total study population. The prevalence of poor sleep quality was higher in the first quartile group (25[OH]D: 2.08-18.13 ng/mL) than in the second, third and fourth quartile groups (18.14-23.07 ng/mL, 23.08-28.32 ng/mL, and 28.33-78.83 ng/mL, respectively). The ORs for poor sleep quality were 1.86 (95% confidence interval, 1.08-3.20) for the first quartile group, 0.73 (0.41-1.29) for the second quartile group, and 0.73 (0.42-1.27) for the third quartile group after adjusting for age, sex, and sociodemographic, lifestyle, physical and environmental factors, while the ORs were 1.68 (0.96-2.95), 0.69 (0.39-1.24), and 0.65 (0.37-1.15) after further adjustment for overall health status and depression status.
Conclusions: The first quartile group of serum 25(OH)D was associated with the presence of poor sleep quality.

Background: Behavioural and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) can complicate acute hospital care, but evidence on BPSD in this setting is heterogeneous.
Objective: To determine the prevalence of BPSD in acute hospitals and explore related risk factors, treatments, and outcomes (PROSPERO: CRD42023406294).
Methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis by searching Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, and PsycINFO for studies on BPSD prevalence among older people with dementia during their acute hospital admissions (up to 5 March 2024).

Aging is associated with disrupted sleep patterns, such as fragmented sleep and reduced efficiency, leading to negative health outcomes. There is evidence of a bidirectional relationship between sleep and gut microbiota, which plays a key role in the gut-brain axis and overall health. However, studies on this relationship in older adults have limited generalizability and show conflicting results, highlighting the need for further research.

This study aims to investigate the relationship between sleep hygiene and sleep quality in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) and to compare the sleep hygiene and sleep quality outcomes across three distinct groups: SSc patients, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients, and healthy controls (HC). This study employed an observational, cross-sectional, and parallel group design. SSc-related and RA-related variables, depression and anxiety were assessed.

Lotus leaves (LL), petals (LP), and seeds (LS) are believed to have properties that can improve sleep. However, their efficacy in improving sleep has not been fully validated. This study aimed to investigate the multitarget mechanisms of extracts from these lotus parts for sleep improvement using chemical analysis, bioactivity assessment, meta-analysis, network pharmacology evaluation, and molecular docking.

Pre-sleep worrying is associated with sleep disturbance, which in turn is associated with impaired affective wellbeing. However, studies examining the fine-grained temporal order of these variables are still lacking. In particular, within-person mediation of the association between pre-sleep worrying and the following day's affective wellbeing by subjective and objective indicators of sleep has not been tested yet.
