Previous observational studies have inconsistently suggested that poor sleep is a novel risk factor for breast cancer (BC). However, these studies mainly focused on sleep duration, other sleep domains were rarely reported. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of a broad range of sleep domains with the risk of BC incidence. We used a community-based 1:1 individual matched case-control design that included 401 female patients with incident BC and 401 age- and area-matched female controls in Jiujiang, China. Long-term sleep habits were comprehensively assessed using a validated 17-item Sleep Factors Questionnaire (SFQ). Adjusted odds ratios (aORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using conditional logistic regression. Light exposure at night (highest vs. lowest level, aOR=1.19, 95% CI: 1.06–2.68), habitual timing of sleep (after 12 AM midnight vs. before 22 PM, aOR=1.12, 95% CI: 1.03–2.62), night/shift work (yes vs. no, aOR=1.38, 95% CI: 1.04–2.71), and frequency of nighttime wakings (>2 per night vs. never, aOR=1.21, 95% CI: 1.10–2.96) were associated with an increased risk of BC, after mutually adjusting for other sleep parameters. These positive associations persisted regardless of menopausal status and tumor estrogen receptor status. There was no association between sleep duration, sleep quality, sleep medication use, insomnia frequency, daytime nap, and the risk of BC. Our results indicate that sleep problems including light exposure at night, night/shift work, late sleeping, and frequent night waking could increase the risk of breast cancer development, independent of other sleep factors.
