Association between Exposure to Outdoor Light at Night and Sleep Habits in Shahedieh Cohort Study: A Cross-sectional Analysis
Exposure to light at night (LAN) in residential environments has been suggested to be associated with a range of health outcomes, including sleep problems. Yet, the available evidence remains scarce. The study was based on data from 8,284 adults (aged 35-70 years) residing in Yazd province, Iran, and participating in the Shahedieh Cohort Study enrolment phase (2015-2017). Sleep-related outcomes and covariates were collected through face-to-face interviews. Exposure to outdoor LAN (nanoWatts/cm2/sr) at different exposure windows was measured at residential addresses via satellite data. The association of LAN with sleep habits was tested using logistic regression models adjusted for relevant variables (reported as odds ratio [OR], and 95% confidence intervals [CI], per interquartile range [IQR] increase of LAN). The outdoor LAN was in the range of 0.54 to 69.27 nanoWatts/cm2/sr (IQR: 14.91). A significant association was found between exposure to outdoor LAN and shorter sleep duration (OR: 1.21; 95% CI: 1.10-1.32), and use of sleep medications (OR: 1.29; 95% CI: 1.08-1.53). In contrast, greater LAN exposure was associated with lower odds for prolonged sleep latency. Associations were mostly stronger in women (e.g., use of sleep medications in men OR: 1.19; 95% CI: 0.91-1.55 compared to women OR: 1.40; 95% CI: 1.11-1.77), non-employed, and overweight/obese participants. Considering the large proportion of the exposed population in urban areas and the ongoing urbanization, outdoor LAN can be regarded as an increasing threat for public health.
期刊介绍:
Environmental Pollution is an international peer-reviewed journal that publishes high-quality research papers and review articles covering all aspects of environmental pollution and its impacts on ecosystems and human health.
Subject areas include, but are not limited to:
• Sources and occurrences of pollutants that are clearly defined and measured in environmental compartments, food and food-related items, and human bodies;
• Interlinks between contaminant exposure and biological, ecological, and human health effects, including those of climate change;
• Contaminants of emerging concerns (including but not limited to antibiotic resistant microorganisms or genes, microplastics/nanoplastics, electronic wastes, light, and noise) and/or their biological, ecological, or human health effects;
• Laboratory and field studies on the remediation/mitigation of environmental pollution via new techniques and with clear links to biological, ecological, or human health effects;
• Modeling of pollution processes, patterns, or trends that is of clear environmental and/or human health interest;
• New techniques that measure and examine environmental occurrences, transport, behavior, and effects of pollutants within the environment or the laboratory, provided that they can be clearly used to address problems within regional or global environmental compartments.
