Sleep and circadian phenotypes are associated with several diseases. The present study aimed to investigate whether sleep and circadian phenotypes were causally linked with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related outcomes.
Habitual sleep duration, insomnia, excessive daytime sleepiness, daytime napping, and chronotype were selected as exposures. Key outcomes included positivity and hospitalization for COVID-19. In the observation cohort study, multivariable risk ratios (RRs) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. Two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses were conducted to estimate the causal effects of the significant findings in the observation analyses. Odds ratios (ORs) and the corresponding 95% CIs were calculated and compared using the inverse variance weighting, weighted median, and MR-Egger methods.
In the UK Biobank cohort study, both often excessive daytime sleepiness and sometimes daytime napping were associated with hospitalized COVID-19 (excessive daytime sleepiness [often vs. never]: RR = 1.24, 95% CI = 1.02-1.5; daytime napping [sometimes vs. never]: RR = 1.12, 95% CI = 1.02-1.22). In addition, sometimes daytime napping was also associated with an increased risk of COVID-19 susceptibility (sometimes vs. never: RR = 1.04, 95% CI = 1.01-1.28). In the MR analyses, excessive daytime sleepiness was found to increase the risk of hospitalized COVID-19 (MR IVW method: OR = 4.53, 95% CI = 1.04-19.82), whereas little evidence supported a causal link between daytime napping and COVID-19 outcomes.
Observational and genetic evidence supports a potential causal link between excessive daytime sleepiness and an increased risk of COVID-19 hospitalization, suggesting that interventions targeting excessive daytime sleepiness symptoms might decrease severe COVID-19 rate.
睡眠和昼夜节律表型与多种疾病有关。本研究旨在探讨睡眠和昼夜节律表型是否与 2019 年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)相关结局存在因果关系。
选择习惯性睡眠时间、失眠、日间嗜睡、白天小睡和昼夜类型作为暴露因素。主要结局包括 COVID-19 阳性和住院。在观察队列研究中,计算了多变量风险比(RR)及其 95%置信区间(CI)。进行了两样本孟德尔随机化(MR)分析,以估计观察分析中显著发现的因果效应。使用逆方差加权、加权中位数和 MR-Egger 方法计算并比较了比值比(OR)及其相应的 95%CI。
在英国生物库队列研究中,经常出现日间嗜睡和有时白天小睡均与 COVID-19 住院相关(日间嗜睡[经常 vs. 从不]:RR=1.24,95%CI=1.02-1.5;白天小睡[有时 vs. 从不]:RR=1.12,95%CI=1.02-1.22)。此外,有时白天小睡也与 COVID-19 易感性增加相关(有时 vs. 从不:RR=1.04,95%CI=1.01-1.28)。在 MR 分析中,日间嗜睡被发现增加了 COVID-19 住院的风险(MR IVW 方法:OR=4.53,95%CI=1.04-19.82),而几乎没有证据表明白天小睡与 COVID-19 结局之间存在因果关系。
观察性和遗传证据支持日间嗜睡与 COVID-19 住院风险增加之间存在潜在的因果关系,表明针对日间嗜睡症状的干预可能会降低严重 COVID-19 的发生率。
