Sleep-wake and circadian disruption (SCD) is a core feature of delirium. It has been hypothesized that SCD contributes to delirium pathogenesis; therefore, interventions that prevent or reverse SCD represent an array of promising opportunities in relation to delirium. This review explores the relationship between sleep-wake/circadian physiology and delirium pathophysiology with a focus on neurotransmitter systems. Across potential targets aimed at preventing or treating delirium, three broad approaches are considered: 1. Pharmacological mechanisms that contribute to physiological sleep may preserve or restore next-day cognition in patients with or at risk for delirium (e.g., alpha 2 agonists, dopamine 2 antagonists, serotonin 2 A antagonists, dual orexin receptor antagonists, or GHB agonists); 2. Pharmacological mechanisms that promote wakefulness during the day may combat hypoactive delirium (e.g., adenosine 2 A antagonists, dopamine transporter antagonists, orexin agonists, histamine 3 antagonists); and 3. Melatonergic and other circadian interventions could strengthen the phase or amplitude of circadian rhythms and ensure appropriately entrained timing in patients with or at risk for delirium (e.g., as informed by a person's preexisting circadian phase).
睡眠-觉醒和昼夜节律紊乱(SCD)是谵妄的一个核心特征。据推测,睡眠-觉醒和昼夜节律紊乱是谵妄的发病机制之一;因此,预防或逆转睡眠-觉醒和昼夜节律紊乱的干预措施为谵妄的治疗提供了一系列大有可为的机会。本综述以神经递质系统为重点,探讨了睡眠-觉醒/昼夜节律生理学与谵妄病理生理学之间的关系。在预防或治疗谵妄的潜在目标方面,我们考虑了三大方法:1.有助于生理睡眠的药理机制可保持或恢复谵妄患者或有谵妄风险的患者次日的认知能力(如α2激动剂、多巴胺等)、2. 促进白天清醒的药理机制可对抗低能谵妄(如腺苷 2 A 拮抗剂、多巴胺转运体拮抗剂、奥曲肽受体双拮抗剂、组胺 3 拮抗剂);以及 3.褪黑激素能和其他昼夜节律干预措施可加强昼夜节律的相位或振幅,确保谵妄患者或有谵妄风险的患者的时间安排适当(例如,根据患者原有的昼夜节律相位)。

Growing evidence suggests a link between couple relationships and sleep, yet findings are inconsistent. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis, searching four databases up to March 2023, and included 62 studies with 43,860 participants. Results indicated a moderate correlation between better couple relationship quality and better overall sleep quality (r = 0.34, 95%CI = 0.09–0.59), as well as longer sleep duration (r = 0.39, 95%CI = 0.04–0.65). Regarding specific couple relationship domains, greater partner responsiveness was linked to improved overall sleep quality (r = 0.19, 95%CI = 0.13–0.25), while partner support showed no significant association (r = 0.03, 95%CI = −0.02-0.09). Increased partner conflict was associated with poorer overall sleep quality (r = 0.17, 95%CI = 0.06–0.27). In the studies that could not be meta-analyzed, greater partner conflict significantly correlated with longer actigraphy-based sleep latency and more wake episodes, but not necessarily with shorter actigraphy-based sleep duration. Increased self-disclosure was related to better overall sleep quality, whereas higher perceived rejection was linked to worse overall sleep quality. Higher closeness was not consistently associated with better overall sleep quality. Our results suggest a significant link between better couple relationships and improved sleep. Improving couple relationships may enhance sleep. However, further long-term cohort studies outside the USA are needed to evaluate these associations, particularly regarding specific couple relationship domains and specific sleep indicators.

Humans spend a third of their lives asleep. While the sleep-wake behaviors are primarily modulated by homeostasis and circadian rhythm, several ambient chemical and physical factors, including light, sound, odor, vibration, temperature, electromagnetic radiation, and ultrasound, also affect sleep and wakefulness. Light at different wavelengths has different effects on sleep and wakefulness. Sound not only promotes but also suppresses sleep; this effect is mediated by certain nuclei, including the pedunculopontine nucleus and inferior colliculus. Certain sleep-promoting odorants regulate sleep through the involvement of the olfactory bulb and olfactory tubercle. In addition, vibrations may induce sleep through the vestibular system. A modest increase in ambient temperature leads to an increase in sleep duration through the involvement of the preoptic area. Electromagnetic radiation has a dual effect on sleep-wake behaviors. The stimulation produced by the ambient chemical and physical factors activates the peripheral sensory system, which converts the chemical and physical stimuli into nerve impulses. This signal is then transmitted to the central nervous system, including several nuclei associated with the modulation of sleep-wake behaviors. This review summarizes the effects of ambient chemical and physical factors on the regulation of sleep and wakefulness, as well as the underlying neurobiological mechanisms.

Background
In individuals with chronic musculoskeletal pain, a reciprocal relationship between sleep and pain across short and long-term evaluations exists. Sleep influences pain levels, while the level of pain also impairs sleep. However, given the day-to-day variability of both sleep and pain intensity, assessing this relationship within a daily time frame should be considered.
Objectives
To systematically review the literature concerning the bidirectional day-to-day relationship between night-time sleep variables and day-time pain intensity in individuals with chronic musculoskeletal pain.
Methods
A systematic search (final search on October 12, 2023) in four databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, PsycInfo) identified eligible articles based on pre-defined criteria. Three independent reviewers executed data extraction and risk of bias assessment using the “Quality In Prognosis Studies” tool. The study findings were synthesized narratively.
Results
Eleven articles (1014 study participants; 83 associations) were included. A bidirectional relationship between pain intensity and sleep was found. Nine articles indicated night-time sleep quality to be a more consistent predictor for next day pain intensity than vice versa.
Conclusion
Nonetheless the bidirectional day-to-day sleep-pain relationship in individuals with chronic musculoskeletal pain, results suggest that self-reported sleep quality has a stronger predictive value on pain intensity then vice versa.

Poor preoperative sleep quality and impaired sleep continuity may heighten acute postoperative pain intensity and increase analgesic consumption, with negative implications for recovery, mental and physical health. The main objective of the current review was to investigate the relationship between preoperative sleep disturbance and acute postoperative pain control. Four electronic databases were systematically searched from inception to December 2023. Two reviewers screened articles, extracted data, and assessed risk of bias for each included study. The search identified 26 prospective cohort studies and 3 retrospective cohort studies (16104 participants). Of the 29 included studies, 23 focused on preoperative insomnia symptoms, and three studies each focused on preoperative objective sleep continuity or sleep-disordered breathing. Meta-analysis, based on five studies with 1226 participants, showed that clinically significant preoperative insomnia symptoms were associated with moderate to severe pain intensity on the first postoperative day (odds ratio 2.69 (95 % confidence interval 2.03–3.57), p < 0.0001). Qualitative analysis showed relatively robust associations between preoperative insomnia symptoms, impaired sleep continuity and poorer acute, as well as subacute, postoperative pain control. Findings related to obstructive sleep apnea syndrome were mixed. Given that insomnia is a potentially modifiable risk factor, interventions targeting sleep prior to surgery may improve postoperative pain control.

On-call work is known to contribute to disrupted sleep, fatigue, and an increased risk of incidentor injury. This review aimed to a) identify current on-call management strategies that are suggested or required by regulatory bodies, and b) determine if there is empirical evidence to support these strategies in managing the fatigue of on-call workers. A grey literature search produced 65 relevant guidance materials. A systematic inductive thematic process identified consistent strategies included in these materials: 1) regularity/predictability of shifts, 2) fatigue management policy, 3) prescriptive rule sets, 4) fitness for work assessment, 5) on-the-day control measures, 6) risk assessment, 7) training and education, and 8) call management. Subsequently, a systematic review identified 17 original studies on the effectiveness of fatigue management strategies in on-call workers. Very little research has been done on fatigue management strategies for on-call workers outside of some prescriptive hours of work limitations. These limitations generally reduced fatigue, but often had the unintended consequence of increasing workload, which may inadvertently increase overall risk. Training, education, and call management (e.g., protected naps during on-call periods) also had some supporting evidence. The current gap in evidence emphasises the critical need for research on tailored on-call fatigue management strategies.
