Abstract
OBJECTIVE: A variety of unhealthy sleep behaviors have been shown to be associated with an increased risk of urologic cancers. However, little is known about the association between the overall sleep patterns and urologic cancers. To prospectively investigate the associations between a healthy sleep pattern and the risks of urologic cancers, including bladder cancer (BCa) and renal cell carcinoma (RCC).</p>
METHODS: In this prospective cohort study, 377,144 participants free of cancer at baseline were recruited from the UK Biobank. Data on sleep behaviors were collected through questionnaires at recruitment. The incident urologic cancer cases were determined through linkage to national cancer and death registries. We established a healthy sleep score according to five sleep traits (sleep duration, chronotype, insomnia, snoring, and daytime sleepiness). Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to calculate the adjusted hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals to assess the relationship between the healthy sleep score and the risk of urologic cancers.</p>
RESULTS: During a median of ≥9 years of follow-up, we identified 1986 incident urologic cancer cases, including 1272 BCa cases and 706 RCC cases. Compared with the participants with a poor sleep pattern (score of 0-2), the multivariable-adjusted hazard ratio and 95% confidence interval were 0.85 (0.75 to 0.96) for urologic cancers, 0.80 (0.68 to 0.93) for BCa, and 0.91 (0.74, 1.12) for RCC, respectively, for those with the healthier sleep pattern (score of 4-5).</p>
CONCLUSION: Our results indicate that a healthy sleep pattern is associated with lower risks of urologic cancers.</p>
