“…The major finding that SHS exposure is significantly associated with poor sleep quality is consistent with findings from some previous studies in different population groups, including children 2 , 37 , adolescents 2 , 38 , university students 22 , and adults 6 , 31 . Although similar findings are widely reported in literature, a study in USA found no statistically significant relationship between poor sleep quality and SHS among the general population 39 .…”

“…International studies exploring this relationship do exist. In China, for example, studies have reported a significant relationship between SHS exposure and sleep quality among young adults and children 2 , 30 . In Turkey, approximately two-thirds of adult students sampled from a university reported SHS exposure as one of the key contributors of poor sleep quality 22 .…”

Although secondhand smoke (SHS) exposure is predominant in Bangladesh, the adverse effect of SHS exposure on health-related behaviors, such as sleep quality, have remained an under-investigated area of the country’s public health landscape. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the association between SHS exposure and poor sleep quality among non-smoking university students in Bangladesh. A cross-sectional survey was carried out between May and September 2022. SHS exposure (main predictor variable) and other covariates (e.g., age, sex, etc.) were measured using a self-reported questionnaire and sleep quality (outcome variable) was measured via the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Multiple logistic regression models investigated the association between SHS exposure and poor sleep quality. The study included 390 students (mean age: 22 years, 53.8% male). Approximately 41.8% of the participants reported SHS exposure, and 50.5% had poor sleep quality. Students exposed to SHS were more likely to have poor sleep quality compared to their counterparts (AOR = 1.61; 95% CI 1.01, 2.58). Subgroup analysis revealed poor sleep quality was 2-times higher among male students exposed to SHS than those male students without SHS exposure (AOR = 2.03; 95% CI 1.05, 3.93). No association was found in female students. Findings from this study warrant increased awareness and public health initiatives on the implications of SHS on health behaviors, such as sleep quality, in non-smoking Bangladeshi university students.

“…Sleep quality is a comprehensive sleep assessment indicator that includes sleep duration and other sleep manifestations. Although most studies focus on the sleep quality of healthy individuals 13,25,26 , there is still insufficient research on the relationship between SHS exposure and sleep quality in patients with chronic diseases. In this context, we observed that hypertensive males exposed to SHS had good sleep quality, which individual differences, lifestyle, and psychological factors may influence.…”

INTRODUCTION This study evaluates the association between passive smoking, specifically secondhand smoke (SHS) and thirdhand smoke (THS) exposure, and sleep quality in a hypertensive population. METHODS We enrolled 1427 eligible hypertensive patients from a 2022 national cross-sectional survey in China. Data on tobacco smoke exposure and sleep were collected via questionnaires. Multiple logistic regression and linear regression were employed to assess the relationship between passive smoking and sleep quality characteristics, as well as the correlation between passive smoking exposure characteristics and sleep quality. RESULTS Among 589 hypertensive patients with no tobacco smoke exposure, 679 exposed to SHS, and 159 exposed to THS, SHS exposure was associated with a higher risk of poor sleep quality, even after adjusting for potential confounding factors (β=0.10; 95% CI: 0.32-0.95). No significant relationship was observed between THS exposure and sleep quality. SHS exposure was associated with various sleep quality characteristics, including shorter sleep duration (AOR=1.71; 95% CI: 1.06-2.76) and increased frequency of 1-2 sleep disturbances per week (AOR=1.68; 95% CI: 1.25-2.26). Individuals exposed to SHS were more likely to experience poorer subjective sleep quality (AOR=1.53; 95% CI: 1.07-2.21) and have sleep efficiency <65% (AOR=1.82; 95% CI: 1.22-2.71). Exposure to passive smoking at home, in the community, in public places, exposure to passive smoking with family and friends, and increased frequency of exposure, were all associated with a higher risk of poor sleep quality. CONCLUSIONS Our study suggests that SHS exposure in hypertensive populations is associated with poor sleep quality and various characteristics of sleep quality. No significant association was found between THS exposure and sleep quality. These findings underscore the need to enhance tobacco control efforts in China, particularly for individuals with chronic diseases, to safeguard public health.

“…Sleep disturbance scale for children (SDSC) 30 , 31 is a recognized measurement: There are 34 items about sleep difficulties, breathing disorders, arousal disorders, conversion disorders, excessive somnolence and sweating at night, to assess the extent to which various factors interfere with the quality of sleep in patients. The score for each question is 5, and the total score ranges from 34 to 170.…”
