“…Sufficient sleep has lately been emphasized as a public health primacy in the Healthy People 2020 initiative, with both inadequate and prolonged sleep linked to increased probability of depression and poor health. 10 , 11 A sleep span of < 7 hours is associated with an increased hazard of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, malignant neoplasms, accidents, septicemia and metabolic disorders. 12 The quality and extent of sleep is also affected by workplace environment and job demands, with various studies linking workplace stresses to sleep disorders.…”

Objectives: To explore the behavior patterns of students and working adults regarding the duration and quality of sleep and water intake in an urban environment and to identify the relationship between nighttime sleep extent and water intake with mood and cognitive performance. Methods: This was a descriptive correlational study conducted at Islamic International Medical College, Riphah University at the Pathology department from March to June 2022. A total of 160 participants with age range of 20 to 50 years completed a self-report questionnaire regarding sleep patterns, water intake, and perceptions of mood, concentration, and memory. Analyzed the relationship between sleep duration, water intake, mood, mindfulness/concentration, and memory using Kendall’s Tau-b correlation coefficient in SPSS 22. Results: A significant number (28.7%) of participants had a sleep duration of ≤ 6 hours, with 41.3% sleeping after midnight. 82.5% of the participants switch off-screen just before sleeping. 63.7% have a routine water intake of less than 2 L/day. An aberrant statistically significant negative correlation between total sleeping hours and mood (τb = -.313, p = 0.004) was identified, showing a negative effect on mood with a sleeping time of ≥ 9 hours when compared with the other two groups (6-9 hours, τb = - .689, p = 0.001, ≤ 6hours, τb = - .697, p = 0.001). A significant correlation between daily water intake and concentration was found, wherein a decrease in daily water intake showed a negative effect on concentration (τb = .289, p = 0.008). Conclusions: Sleep duration and water intake patterns may affect mood and cognitive performance. Regular sufficient nighttime sleep and adequate hydration may help improve cognitive functioning and mood. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.40.4.8268 How to cite this: Qayyum S, Iltaf S, Sajjad M, Azam M.

“…Former smokers were defined as individuals who had smoked over 100 cigarettes in their lifetime but were not currently smoking at the time of the interview. Participants who did not meet both criteria were classified as non-smokers [26]. Participants with an alcohol consumption of 20 g or more per day were categorized as heavy drinkers [49].…”

“…Anxiety disorders are biopsychosocial conditions distinguished by disproportionate and enduring fear of everyday occurrences alongside behavioral and somatic symptoms [26]. Anxiety disorders are the most common psychiatric disorders worldwide [27], with lifetime prevalence rates ranging from 14.5% to 33.7%, according to a large prevalence study conducted in the United States [28].…”

Individuals with mental health problems are at higher risk of musculoskeletal diseases. However, the association between low muscle mass (LMM) and anxiety symptoms remains uninvestigated. This cross-sectional study enrolled 174,262 adults (73,833 women, 100,429 men), aged 18 to 89, who completed the anxiety scale and body composition analyses. Using bio-electrical impedance analysis, skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) was calculated based on appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASM) (kg)/height (m2). LMM was defined as SMI < 7.0 kg/m2 in men and <5.4 kg/m2 in women. Anxiety symptoms were screened using the Clinical Useful Anxiety Outcome Scale (CUXOS) with cut-off scores of 20, 30, and 40. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed. LMM prevalence was 20.17% in women, 3.86% in men (p < 0.001). The prevalence of anxiety symptoms in LMM group decreased from mild (CUXOS > 20: women, 32.74%, men, 21.17%) to moderate (CUXOS > 30: 13.34%, 7.32%), to severe anxiety symptoms (CUXOS > 40: 4.00%, 1.73%). In multivariable-adjusted models, LMM was associated with mild (aOR (95% confidence interval)), women, 1.13 (1.08–1.17); men, 1.17 (1.08–1.27)), moderate (1.17 (1.11–1.24); 1.35 (1.19–1.53) and severe anxiety symptoms (1.18 (1.07–1.3), 1.36 (1.06–1.74)), demonstrating an increased risk of ORs with escalating anxiety severity. LMM was independently associated with a higher prevalence of anxiety symptoms.

“…Considering the possibility that a hybrid scheme for MILPs can modify the stress level, the following hypotheses are proposed for this study: Income Some studies on burnout have established that income and financial strain are variables that affect burnout (Irshad et al, 2022;Soares et al, 2007), and other have shown a positive correlation between financial stress and burnout (Kloutsiniotis et al, 2022). It is thus logical to expect working mothers with low incomes and high family demands to be affected by their level of burnout.…”

Purpose This study aims to understand how the recent COVID-19 pandemic impacted burnout levels among working mothers in leadership positions and how income and work schemes play an important role in their burnout. Design/methodology/approach Data were collected from 961 working mothers and fathers in leadership positions in Mexico under different work schemes during the COVID-19 lockdown. Snowball sampling was used in this study. The Maslach Burnout Inventory General Survey was distributed online, using the burnout scale, with income and work schemes as categorical variables. Findings Burnout levels among working mothers in leadership positions were higher than those among working fathers. The hybrid work scheme (i.e. working from home combined with working from office) lessens burnout in working mothers, contributing both theoretically and empirically to better understanding burnout levels of mothers in leadership positions. Practical implications The findings can encourage human resource areas to reflect on the overexertion and work stress of mothers in leadership positions, and potential support resources can be provided to motivate them and retain their talent. Originality/value The introduction of the notion of lockdown in a conceptual model to observe its interaction with burnout and hybrid work schemes (i.e. working from the office and home) has rarely been discussed in existing literature. The impact, especially for working mothers in leadership positions, must be thus carefully considered while dealing with future crises, thereby helping to develop policies and processes accordingly.
