Abstract:

Background

With the rapid population aging in China, cognitive impairment in older adults has become a growing public health concern.

Objective

To examine the association between nighttime sleep duration and cognitive impairment among community-dwelling older adults.

Methods

Data were derived from the cohort of Older Adult Health and Modifiable Environmental Factors established in Fuyang City from July to September 2018, among whom a total of 4 837 older adults with complete data on cognitive function and sleep time were included in this study. General demographic characteristics〔gender, age, living area (urban or rural), education level, occupation, marital status〕, living habits, the history of chronic diseases, sleep duration, and overall cognitive function were extracted. Binary Logistic regression models were used to analyze the association between nighttime sleep duration and cognitive impairment. Restrictive cubic splines were used to further determine potential dose-response relationships between them.

Results

The participants had a mean nighttime sleep duration of (6.95±1.75) hours, among whom 1 773 (36.65%) slept ≤6 hours per day, 2 088 (43.17%) slept >6-8 hours per day, and 976 (20.18%) slept >8 hours per day. The detection rate of cognitive impairment was 37.44% (1 811/4 837). After adjusting for gender, age, living area, education level and other confounding factors, the detection rate of cognitive impairment was 1.26〔95%CI (1.09, 1.46) 〕 times higher in older adults with nighttime sleep duration of ≤6 hours, and was 1.22〔95%CI (1.03, 1.46) 〕 times higher in older adults with nighttime sleep duration of >8 hours than in those with nighttime sleep duration of >6-8 hours (P<0.05). The detection rate of cognitive impairment in male older adults with nighttime sleep duration of >8 hours was 1.35〔 (95%CI (1.06, 1.72) 〕 times higher than in those with nighttime sleep duration of >6-8 hours (P<0.05). The detection rate of cognitive impairment in female older adults with nighttime sleep duration of≤6 hours was 1.29〔95%CI (1.06, 1.58) 〕 times higher than in those with nighttime sleep duration of >6-8 hours (P<0.05). The restriction cube spline curve showed an approximate U-shaped relationship between nighttime sleep duration and the risk for cognitive impairment, with the lowest risk at 7 hours.

Conclusion

Both shorter and longer nighttime sleep duration may be independent and dose-dependent risk factors for cognitive impairment in older adults. The optimal sleep time is about 7 hours. The association between longer sleep duration and cognitive impairment is pronounced in males, while the association between shorter sleep duration and cognitive impairment is pronounced in females.

摘要:

背景

随着我国人口快速老龄化,老年人认知功能障碍正日益成为突出的公共卫生问题。

目的

探讨社区老年人夜间睡眠时间与认知功能障碍的关联。

方法

本研究数据来源于2018年7—9月建立的阜阳市老年人健康与环境可控性队列,最终纳入认知功能数据和睡眠时间数据完整的4 837例老年人为本研究对象。提取其中的一般人口学特征(性别、年龄、地区、文化程度、职业、婚姻状况等)、生活方式、慢性病患病情况、睡眠时间和认知功能数据。采用二元Logistic回归模型分析夜间睡眠时间与认知功能障碍的关联。采用限制性立方样条模型绘制睡眠时间与认知功能障碍的剂量-反应曲线。

结果

4 837例老年人中,平均睡眠时间为(6.95±1.75)h,其中1 773例(36.65%)每天睡眠时间≤6 h,2 088例(43.17%)每天睡眠时间为>6~8 h,976例(20.18%)每天睡眠时间>8 h;认知功能障碍检出率为37.44%(1 811/4 837)。调整性别、年龄、地区、文化程度等混杂因素后,总人群睡眠时间≤6 h和>8 h的老年人认知功能障碍检出率分别是睡眠时间>6~8 h者的1.26倍〔95%CI(1.09,1.46)〕和1.22倍〔95%CI(1.03,1.46)〕(P<0.05)。在男性人群中,睡眠时间>8 h的老年人认知功能障碍检出率是睡眠时间>6~8 h者的1.35倍〔95%CI(1.06,1.72)〕(P<0.05);在女性人群中,睡眠时间≤6 h的老年人认知功能障碍检出率是睡眠时间>6~8 h者的1.29倍〔95%CI(1.06,1.58)〕(P<0.05)限制性立方样条曲线结果显示,睡眠时间与认知功能障碍发生风险呈近似"U"形关系,低点在7 h左右。

结论

夜间睡眠时间较短和较长可能都是老年人认知功能障碍的独立、剂量依赖性的关联因素;最佳的睡眠时间在7 h左右;男性睡眠时间较长与认知功能障碍的关联强度较高,女性睡眠时间较短与认知功能障碍的关联强度较高。
