まとめ
植物ベースの食事パターンであるEAT-Lancet 食事への準拠は、睡眠時無呼吸症を発症するリスクが18%減少することに関連しています。ボディマス指数(BMI)はこの保護効果を部分的に説明しています。
科学分野:
- 栄養科学
- 睡眠医学
- 公衆衛生
背景:
- EAT-Lancet委員会は、健康と環境上の利益のために植物ベースの食事を推奨しました。
- EAT-Lancet 食事と睡眠時無呼吸症のリスクとの関連は、依然として十分に研究されていません。
研究 の 目的:
- EAT-Lancet 食事への準拠と睡眠時無呼吸症を発症するリスクとの関連を調査すること。
- この関連におけるボディマス指数(BMI)の媒介的役割を探求すること。
主な方法:
- 英国バイオバンクの200,373人の参加者のデータを利用しました。
- 修正された食事歴を通じて食事摂取量を評価し、EAT-Lancet 食事指数を計算しました。
- Cox比例ハザード回帰および因果媒介分析を用いました。
主要な成果:
- 11.6年以上にわたり、2924件の睡眠時無呼吸症の症例が記録されました。
- EAT-Lancet 食事への最も高い準拠は、睡眠時無呼吸症のリスクが18%低下することと相関していました(95% CI:6%-28%)。
- BMIは、食事と睡眠時無呼吸症のリスクとの関連の26.4%(95% CI:13.6%-44.8%)を媒介しました。
結論:
- EAT-Lancet 食事への高い準拠は、睡眠時無呼吸症のリスク低下と関連しています。
- BMIは、食事と睡眠時無呼吸症の関係において部分的な媒介的役割を果たします。

Sleep Apnea
645
Sleep apnea is a condition where breathing stops intermittently during sleep, often leading to significant health issues. Each episode can last from 10 to 20 seconds or more and is frequently accompanied by a brief arousal from sleep. This disturbance, largely unnoticed by the individual, can lead to severe daytime fatigue. Commonly, individuals seek help after being informed by their partners about loud snoring and noticeable breathing pauses during sleep.

Insufficient Sleep and Sleep Deprivation
1.1K
Insufficient sleep refers to not getting the recommended amount of sleep for optimal functioning, even if it's just slightly less than needed. Sleep insufficiency may occur due to lifestyle choices, such as staying up late for social events or work, resulting in routinely getting less sleep than required. For example, consistently sleeping 6 hours when the body needs 7-9 hours can lead to cumulative effects on health and well-being.

Cause and Effect
12.6K
While variables are sometimes correlated because one does cause the other, it could also be that some other factor, a confounding variable, is actually causing the systematic movement in our variables of interest. For instance, as sales in ice cream increase, so does the overall rate of crime. Is it possible that indulging in your favorite flavor of ice cream could send you on a crime spree? Or, after committing crime do you think you might decide to treat yourself to a cone?

Substance Use Disorders Affecting Sleep
487
Substance use disorders involve a pattern of using drugs more extensively than intended and continuing use despite harmful consequences. This includes legal substances like alcohol and nicotine, as well as illegal drugs. These disorders often involve both physical and psychological dependence, reflecting compulsive use of substances that significantly alter thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, contributing to a major public health issue.

Correlations
36.7K
Correlation means that there is a relationship between two or more variables (such as ice cream consumption and crime), but this relationship does not necessarily imply cause and effect. When two variables are correlated, it simply means that as one variable changes, so does the other. We can measure correlation by calculating a statistic known as a correlation coefficient. A correlation coefficient is a number from -1 to +1 that indicates the strength and direction of the relationship between...

Sleep-Wake Cycles
3.1K
Sleep is an essential physiological process vital to maintaining overall well-being. The reticular activating system (RAS), a network of neurons in the brainstem, regulates wakefulness and sleep. While it may seem passive, sleep consists of distinct cycles, each with its unique characteristics and functions. Two key sleep phases are non-rapid eye movement (NREM) and rapid eye movement (REM).
