Using Mobile Assessments to Characterize Mental and Physical Health Behaviors in Youth: Protocol for a Pilot Intensive Longitudinal Study

Using Mobile Assessments to Characterize Mental and Physical Health Behaviors in Youth: Protocol for a Pilot Intensive Longitudinal Study

During this period, youth respond to these numerous biopsychosocial challenges with increasing personal autonomy, manifesting profound shifts across multiple health behavior patterns, including sleep [1-3], physical activity [4,5], dietary habits [6-8], and substance use [9].

Lifestyle eHealth and mHealth Interventions for Children and Adolescents: Systematic Umbrella Review and Meta–Meta-Analysis

Lifestyle eHealth and mHealth Interventions for Children and Adolescents: Systematic Umbrella Review and Meta–Meta-Analysis

Adequate sleep in both quality and duration is vital for cognitive function and mental health [10], while a balanced diet is essential for maintaining a healthy weight and supporting optimal growth and development [11]. It is important to recognize that, in addition to physical activity, sedentary behavior, sleep, and healthy eating, other lifestyle factors—such as stress management, social engagement, and substance use—also play significant roles in overall health.

At-Home Morning Bright Light Treatment for Chronic Nociplastic Pain: Protocol for a Randomized Clinical Trial

At-Home Morning Bright Light Treatment for Chronic Nociplastic Pain: Protocol for a Randomized Clinical Trial

The FM Sleep A to ZZZ Study is a prospective single-center randomized clinical trial with a 3-arm parallel groups design comparing 4 weeks of morning light treatment, sleep stabilization, and TAU in patients with fibromyalgia. The TAU group will be presented to participants as a study of sleep monitoring to minimize group differences in treatment expectations. A sample diagram of the study protocol is shown in Figure 2.

Leveraging Smart Bed Technology to Detect COVID-19 Symptoms: Case Study

Leveraging Smart Bed Technology to Detect COVID-19 Symptoms: Case Study

Certain antimicrobial peptides and cytokines act to prolong sleep, and increased sleep during infection is protective [20]. Thus, a possible immunological function of sleep is to support host defense, which has the evolutionary advantage of preparing the immunological response during a period of low metabolic need and quiescence [21]. Conversely, sleep disturbance appears to negatively impact immune function.

Moreover, both “bothered” and “depressed” were negatively associated with shorter sleep duration, aligning with previous findings [33]. Intriguingly, longer sleep duration predicted lower numerical ability, perhaps because middle-aged and older individuals, despite extended sleep periods, often experience frequent nocturnal awakenings that compromise sleep quality [34].

Measuring 24-hour Movement Profiles During Pregnancy: Protocol for the 24MOVE Prospective Cohort Study

Physical activity (PA) during the waking period and sleep during pregnancy may mitigate the increased risk for adverse pregnancy and health outcomes posed by GDM and excessive GWG in pregnant individuals with a high pre-pregnancy BMI.

Validation of the eHealth Literacy Scale Instrument in a Restless Legs Syndrome Population: Classical Test Theory and Rasch Analysis Study

Validation of the eHealth Literacy Scale Instrument in a Restless Legs Syndrome Population: Classical Test Theory and Rasch Analysis Study

The 6 items involve sleep quality, RLS experiences during night and daytime, as well as during activity to differentiate RLS from other disorders (left out in scoring). Items are scored on a 0‐10 scale, with 0=no symptoms and 10=very severe symptoms [44]. The RLS-6 has been used in previous Swedish RLS studies [14,25]. The well-established PSQI was used to assess sleep quality and sleep disturbances during the last month [46].

Associations Between Sleep Duration and Cognitive Function Among Older Adults: Cross-Sectional Study

Associations Between Sleep Duration and Cognitive Function Among Older Adults: Cross-Sectional Study

Specifically, the ELSA study found that older adults who sleep less than 5 hours per night have significantly lower cognitive scores compared with those who sleep for 7 hours [11,12]. Various mechanisms have been proposed to explain these findings, including impairment of the brain’s ability to clear metabolic waste due to insufficient sleep and the reflection of underlying health problems through excessive sleep [13-15].
