“…[28] Other studies showed the relation to physical and social factors,[29] and lastly, depression. [30] On the other hand, some result did not align with commonly found and documented relations: hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and hyperlipidemia to name a few. This can be seen in a recent study conducted in Taiwan on 26,016 volunteers in 2019 which evidently shows that sleep duration is associated with metabolic syndrome components.…”

Background:Sleep is crucial to human's health and essential for a person's wellbeing. It is involved in multiple physiological mechanisms, such as metabolism, appetite regulation, immune and hormone function, and cardiovascular systems. The National Sleep Foundation recommends 7–9 h of sleep each night for adults. Short (<7 h) and long (<9 h) sleep duration has been reported to be associated with increased risk of morbidity and mortality.Aim:1) To assess the prevalence of short sleep durations among Saudi adult population. 2) To examine comorbid medical condition's association with short sleep duration.Methods:A nation-wide quantitative cross-sectional study using an online self-administered constructed questionnaire during the period from August to October 2018 was conducted. The questionnaire included demographic characters, such as age, gender, education level, height, and weight. As well as some of the participants’ habits such as consuming coffee and/or tea, smoking status, and other habits known to be associated with shorter sleep hours. The questionnaire also included self-reported duration of sleep and history of diagnosed medical illnesses.Results:The study included 805 adult Saudi participants with ages ranging from 15- to 60-year old and mean age of 21.8 ± 10.7-year old. About 63% of the participants were females. It was established that almost half 49.6% of the participants sleep for <7 h daily, and 39.3% of them sleep for 7–9 h.Conclusion:About half of Saudi adults do not get enough hours of sleep. Especially, people who are married, above 30-year old, students or tea drinkers (P < 0.05): furthermore, people with medical comorbidities such as anxiety, depression, and insomnia had a higher association with short sleep duration. Last, sleep deprivation adversely affects the physical wellbeing and quality of life of participants, demonstrated in bad mood, somnolence, and tiredness during the day time.

“…Thus, the patient engages in a vicious cycle of depression and disability, which leads to severe depression and an extensive reduction in Qol. It has also been shown that the symptoms of depression lead to increased anxiety (anxiety symptoms) and sleep disturbance (36).Therefore, depression also reduces the quality of life by changing the quality of sleep and increasing anxiety and therefore has a major role in reducing the quality of life (37).After the depression, variables related to pain perception (pain acceptance and pain catastrophizing) play an important role (even more than pain intensity) in reducing the quality of life.…”

Background: This study aimed to predict the quality of life in patients with Painful Diabetic Neuropathy (PDN) based on pain severity, pain catastrophizing, pain acceptance, depression, anxiety, and sleep disturbance. Also, assessing the prevalence of psychiatric symptoms in Iranian patients with PDN.Method: In this descriptive correlational study, 1500 MTBI patients admitted to the diabetes centers in Tehran, Iran, from November 2019, to August 2020 were selected using the convenient sampling method. One thousand one hundred twenty patients (mean age, 53.6± 12.6 years) participated in the research. Data were collected using the Quality of life (NeuroQol) questionnaire (as a dependent variable); Beck Depression Inventory, Beck Anxiety Inventory, 10-cm visual analog scale (pain severity), Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS), Chronic Pain Acceptance Questionnaire (CPAQ) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Finally, the data were analyzed in SPSS‑26 by multiple regression analysis.Results: The study results showed that the regression model was significant (P < 0.5), in which variables predicted 42% of total changes in the quality of life in patients. Predicting factors from the most significant to the lowest include depression, pain catastrophizing, pain acceptance, pain severity, sleep disturbance, and finally, anxiety. Also, in patients with PDN, the prevalence rates of sleep disturbances, depression, and anxiety are 85.5%, 68.2%, and 62.1%, respectively. Also, comorbid depression and anxiety were found in 47% of patients.Conclusion: The findings of this study show a considerable relationship between these factors and quality of life. Thus, it is suggested to design more specific psychological‑based rehabilitation programs concerning these variables to improve these patients' quality of life, focusing on stronger variables (depression and pain catastrophizing) for reaching better treatment outcomes. Furthermore, according to the findings of this research, which shows a high level of anxiety, depression, and sleep disturbance in Iranian patients with PDN, all experts and clinicians must focus on these psychiatric symptoms to reduce disease problems.

“…These types of measures were not included in this study because assessment of sleep problems was not the primary aim of FEST-IT. However, authors like Mayers and coworkers [31] have argued that subjective perceptions of sleep in depression may be as important as objective measurements for sleep impairment owing to the lack of knowledge of subjective complaints in adolescent sleep research [43][44][45]. The experience of having a problem might not be captured only using objective sleep measures.…”

Sleep disturbance is often a prominent symptom in adolescents diagnosed with major depressive disorder (MDD). Recent evidence indicates that short-term psychoanalytic psychotherapy (STPP) for depression may have an effect in reducing co-occurring sleep disturbance in youth. It is unknown if transference work (exploration of the patient–therapist relationship) has an additional effect in reducing sleep disturbance. Adolescents aged 16–18 years (n = 69, 84% female) who met diagnostic criteria for MDD based on the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (M.I.N.I) were randomized to either STPP with transference work or without. Sleep problems were assessed at baseline, therapy session 20 (20 weeks), post-treatment (28 weeks), and one-year follow-up (80 weeks) with the Symptom Checklist-90-R. At baseline, 69% of the adolescents exhibited moderately to extreme sleep difficulties. Sleep disturbance was significantly correlated to depression depth at session 20 and at follow-up. Symptoms of insomnia significantly decreased from baseline to the end of treatment. Treatment gains were maintained until follow-up. No differences in recovery of sleep disturbance were found between the two treatment groups. The findings suggest that sleep disturbance improves following STPP for depression, with or without transference work. Future research should assess those with residual symptoms by different sleep measures.
