1 Sleep and Health (or, Why should we bother to think about sleep in the context of mind-body research? Martica Hall, Ph.D. Associate Professor of Psychiatry University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine hallmh@upmc.edu Pittsburgh Mind-Body Center Summer Institute Pittsburgh, PA June 8, 2007

2 SLEEP  What is it?  How is it measured?  What affects it?  Is it related to health?  What can we do about it?  Where do we go from here?

3 Overview: Description of sleep What is sleep?  behavioral state of relative quiescence  reversible changes in consciousness and physiology  seen in all mammals  essential to health and functioning What drives sleep?  prior wakefulness  circadian rhythms  Habit  Circumstance

4 Overview: Functions of sleep  Ecological/ environmental advantage  Improves the quality of wakefulness –Alertness –Mood –Cognitive (especially frontal lobe) functions  Integration of experience; learning  Resensitization of receptors (e.g., norepinephrine, serotonin)  Metabolic, inflammatory effects  Longevity

5 Assessment of sleep-wake states  Self-report questionnaires  Sleep-wake diaries: Daily recording of sleep times and characteristics  Observer ratings: Unreliable  Actigraphy: Motion-sensitive accelerometer worn on wrist  Polysomnography (PSG): Modification of electroencephalography (EEG) –EEG –Eye movements –Muscle tone

6 Actigraphy Daytime activity peaks Nighttime inactivity Actigraph taken off

14 Factors that affect sleep  Age –Increased wakefulness during sleep period –Decreased Stage 3/4 NREM –Earlier timing –Greater daytime sleepiness  Sex (women have longer sleep, more Stage 3/4 NREM)  Timing: Sleep is best at night!  Illnesses, medications

15 Sleep in healthy young and older adults 20 year old woman 71 year old woman

16 Sleep stages across the life span Ohayon et al., SLEEP 2004; 27: 1255-73 Minutes Age (years)

17 Be mindful of circadian rhythms! Examples of human circadian rhythms Czeisler and Khalsa, 2000 Core body temperature Urine volume Thyroid Stimulating Hormone Growth Hormone Prolactin Parathyroid Hormone Motor activity Cortisol Time

19 Sleep Restriction: Sleepiness & Performance (n= 16, sleep restriction to 33% below habitual sleep duration) Dinges et al., SLEEP. 20:267-77 (1997).

20 Sleep deprivation effects on cognitive function Drummond et al., Neuroreport, 1999 Normal sleep – Activation of PFC, parietal, pre-motor cortex Following sleep deprivation – Decreased activation fMRI during serial subtraction task

21 The effects of 53 hours of sleep deprivation on moral judgment (n = 26, 20 – 35 years of age) Kilgore et al., SLEEP, 30:345-52, 2007

22 © American Academy of Sleep Medicine  Surgery: 20% more errors and 14% more time required to perform simulated laparoscopy post-call (two studies) Taffinder et al, 1998; Grantcharov et al, 2001  Internal Medicine: efficiency and accuracy of ECG interpretation impaired in sleep-deprived interns Lingenfelser et al, 1994  Pediatrics: time required to place an intra-arterial line increased significantly in sleep-deprived Storer et al, 1989 Sleep deprivation in medical trainees

23 Sleep Restriction & Glucose Metabolism Glucose Effectiveness 30 – 40% decrease Sympathovagal Balance (trend) increase Spiegel et al., Lancet, 354:1435-9 (1999). Ghrelin : Leptin 70% increase Carbohydrate Craving 30% Increase Spiegel et al., Ann Intern. Med, 141:846-50 (2004). GLUCOSE(mg/dL)LEPTIN(ng/ml)

24 Sleep and the Metabolic Syndrome  U-Shaped curvilinear relationship: Metabolic Syndrome: odds of meeting criteria increased by 60 - 70% Glucose: odds of meeting criteria increased by 60 - 70%  Unique to Short Sleepers: Abdominal Obesity: odds of meeting criteria increased by 50 – 60% Triglycerides: odds of meeting criteria increased by 40%  Unique to Long Sleepers: n/a  Not Significant: Blood pressure, HDL  Results are similar to those found for sleep quality (Jennings, Muldoon, Hall, Buysse, Manuck, Sleep, 2007).

40 Classes of pharmacologic agents used to treat insomnia  Benzodiazepine receptor agonists –True benzodiazepine –“Non-benzodizepines”  Melatonin and melatonin receptor agonists  Sedating antidepressants (trazodone, doxepin)  Antihistamines (diphenhydramine, doxylamine)  Valerian, “natural” agents  Sedating second generation antipsychotics  Miscellaneous: gabapentin, tiagabine

41 Behavioral treatments for insomnia  A diverse set of behavioral prescriptions… –All involve some change in the patient’s behavior –Of the patient, by the patient, for the patient –Use voluntary, waking behavior to influence sleep-wake balance  …designed to improve the quality of nocturnal sleep –Reduce sleep onset latency, intermittent wakefulness –Increase sleep duration (?), sleep efficiency –Regularize sleep timing, increase predictability A diverse set of behavioral prescriptions designed to improve the quality of nocturnal sleep

42 Behavioral treatments for insomnia TechniqueAim Sleep hygiene education Promote habits that help sleep; eliminate habits that hurt sleep Stimulus control Strengthen bed/bedroom as sleep stimulus Sleep restriction therapy Restrict time in bed to improve sleep depth/consolidation Cognitive behavior therapy Address maladaptive thoughts and beliefs Relaxation training Reduce physical/psychological arousal
