Abstract
Background
The relationship between daytime napping and depression remains debatable. Thus, we investigated whether daytime napping is associated with depressive symptoms in patients with bipolar disorder.
Methods
In a cross-sectional study, we enrolled 204 outpatients with bipolar disorder who were participants in the Association between Pathology of Bipolar Disorder and Light Exposure in Daily Life (APPLE) cohort study. Each participant's daytime napping was measured using an actigraph over 7 consecutive days. Depressive symptoms were evaluated using the Montgomery–Åsberg Depression Rating Scale, and scores of ≥8 points were considered indicative of a depressed state.
Results
One-hundred and ten (53.9 %) participants were depressed. In multivariable logistic regression analysis, as the number of nap days, number of naps per day, and nap duration increased, the odds ratio (OR) for depressed state significantly increased. Additionally, compared to the participants who did not nap, the participants who napped on five or more days a week or who had an average nap duration over 60 min had more than three times higher ORs in the depressed state (number of nap days: OR, 3.66; 95 % confidence interval [CI], 1.32–10.17; nap duration: OR, 3.14; 95 % CI, 1.12–8.81).
Conclusions
We found a significant and independent association between daytime napping and depressive symptoms in patients with bipolar disorder. Further studies are warranted to identify the effect of short napping on depressive symptoms in patients with bipolar disorder.
期刊介绍:
Sleep Medicine aims to be a journal no one involved in clinical sleep medicine can do without.
A journal primarily focussing on the human aspects of sleep, integrating the various disciplines that are involved in sleep medicine: neurology, clinical neurophysiology, internal medicine (particularly pulmonology and cardiology), psychology, psychiatry, sleep technology, pediatrics, neurosurgery, otorhinolaryngology, and dentistry.
The journal publishes the following types of articles: Reviews (also intended as a way to bridge the gap between basic sleep research and clinical relevance); Original Research Articles; Full-length articles; Brief communications; Controversies; Case reports; Letters to the Editor; Journal search and commentaries; Book reviews; Meeting announcements; Listing of relevant organisations plus web sites.
