Association between sleep disorders and subsequent chronic spontaneous urticaria development: A population-based cohort study

Abstract

Patients with chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) often have sleep disorders (SDs) because of pruritus. However, SDs might also contribute to the development of CSU. Here, we present the first population-based cohort study on the association between SDs and subsequent CSU development.This study investigated whether SDs increase the risk of CSU by using a population-based database in Taiwan.This retrospective matched-cohort study included 105,892 patients with new-onset SDs (SD cohort) and 105,892 randomly selected controls (control cohort). Each patient was monitored for 10 years to individually identify patients who were subsequently diagnosed as having CSU during the follow-up period. A Cox proportional hazard regression analysis was conducted to determine the risk of CSU in patients with SDs compared with the controls.All relevant comorbidities were more prevalent in the SD cohort than in the control cohort (P < .001). During the follow-up period, the incidence rates of CSU among the patients with SDs and controls were 53.4 and 28.3 per 10,000 person-years, respectively. After adjustment for age, sex, and comorbidities, the adjusted hazard ratio for CSU in the SD cohort was 1.83 (95% confidence interval = 1.73-1.93, P < .001...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
