摘要

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive and fatal neurodegenerative disease frequently accompanied by sleep disorders. Conventional insomnia interventions are often unsuitable for ALS patients due to cognitive and respiratory impairments. There is a lack of targeted studies addressing sleep-related issues using multifactorial analyses specific to this group. This cross-sectional study included 266 ALS patients at the Motor Neuron Disease Rehabilitation and Treatment Center of Hubei Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Participants were evaluated using tools like the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and ALS Functional Rating Scale-Revised (ALSFRS-R). Regression models identified factors affecting sleep disorders and quality. Patients with sleep disorders were more likely to have non-motor symptoms like anxiety, depression, pain, and excessive daytime sleepiness compared to those without. Fatigue severity and anxiety levels were identified as independent influencing factors of sleep disorders. Additionally, fatigue, anxiety, pain intensity, and disease progression rate were significantly linked to sleep quality. This study is the first comprehensive analysis of sleep-related factors in Chinese ALS patients, highlighting the crucial roles of fatigue, anxiety, pain, and disease progression rate. It provides a basis for future personalized, non-pharmacological interventions tailored to the specific needs of ALS patients.
