The association between sleep duration and prostate cancer (PCa) risk is still unclear. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to explore if sleep duration is associated with PCa in men.A comprehensive literature search was conducted in November 2019 based on the Pubmed, Embase, and Cochrane databases. After extracting the data, the random effects model was used to calculate the pooled Risk Ratio (RR) and it's 95% confidence interval (CI) to represent the correlation between sleep duration and PCa risk.Overall, we included 6 studies in our meta-analysis. Our pooled results showed that neither short sleep (RR = 0.99; 95%CI:0.91-1.07, P = .74) nor long sleep (RR = 0.88; 95%CI:0.75-1.04, P = .15) was associated with the risk of PCa.Sleep duration has no significant effect on PCa risk. Long sleep may have a potential protective effect on PCa incidence.

This study examined associations between food insecurity (FI) severity, anxiety symptoms, and sleep duration among young adults in food-insecure households. We hypothesized that more severe FI and higher anxiety would independently predict shorter sleep duration, and that anxiety would amplify the FI-sleep duration relationship. Analysis was conducted on a subsample (n = 96) of the EAT 2010-2018 young adult cohort.

Background: Sleep is a conserved physiological phenomenon across species. It is mainly controlled by two processes: a circadian clock that regulates the timing of sleep and a homeostat that regulates the sleep drive. Even cnidarians, such as Hydra and jellyfish, which lack a brain, display sleep-like states.

Background: Mental health issues, particularly anxiety and depression, are increasingly prevalent among the occupational population. Environmental factors, such as dust exposure, may contribute to the worsening of these symptoms. While previous studies have examined the association between dust exposure and mental health, the moderating effect of sleep duration on this link in occupational settings remains under-explored.

Don't Sleep on Vitamin D: Vitamin D is Associated with Sleep Variability in Apparently Healthy Adults.

Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol

January 2025

Neurovascular Physiology Laboratory, School of Kinesiology, Auburn University, Auburn, AL, USA 36849.

Vitamin D is associated with sleep quality and duration, but it's unclear whether vitamin D status influences sleep variability. Therefore, we sought to determine whether vitamin D status was associated with sleep variability in healthy adults. We assessed objective sleep, including timing and duration standard deviation () using the Philips Actiwatch Spectrum and subjective sleep quality using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) in 130 adults.

A nationwide survey in the USA reported that healthcare workers had the highest prevalence of short sleep duration compared with other professions. Moreover, several studies have reported poor sleep quality among healthcare professionals and described insufficient sleep as a potential driver of reduced physician well-being. This study aims to explore sleep quality and mental health issues among Syrian medical residents, with the goal of informing targeted interventions to enhance their well-being and professional performance.
