Study ObjectivesGrowing evidence linked inflammation with sleep. This study aimed to evaluate the associations and causal effects of sleep traits including insomnia, excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), and sleep duration (short: <7 h; normal: 7–9 h; long: ≥9 h), with levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and interleukins.MethodsStandard procedures of quantitative analysis were applied to estimate the expression differences for each protein in compared groups. Then, a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was performed to explore their causal relationships with published genome-wide association study summary statistics. The inverse-variance weighted was used as the primary method, followed by several complementary approaches as sensitivity analyses.ResultsA total of 44 publications with 51 879 participants were included in the quantitative analysis. Our results showed that the levels of CRP, interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-6, and TNF-α were higher from 0.36 to 0.58 (after standardization) in insomnia compared with controls, while there was no significant difference between participants with EDS and controls. Besides, there was a U/J-shaped expression of CRP and IL-6 with sleep durations. In MR analysis, the primary results demonstrated the causal effects of CRP on sleep duration (estimate: 0.017; 95% confidence intervals [CI], [0.003, 0.031]) and short sleep duration (estimate: −0.006; 95% CI, [−0.011, −0.001]). Also, IL-6 was found to be associated with long sleep duration (estimate: 0.006; 95% CI, [0.000, 0.013]). These results were consistent in sensitivity analyses.ConclusionsThere are high inflammatory profiles in insomnia and extremes of sleep duration. Meanwhile, elevated CRP and IL-6 have causal effects on longer sleep duration. Further studies can focus on related upstream and downstream mechanisms.
