Popis: | Craniopharyngioma is a histologically benign brain tumor that arises in the suprasellar region affecting critical neurovascular structures including the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and optic pathways. Children with craniopharyngioma often experience excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) which may be compounded by anxiety and depression. The current study investigated disparate sleep profiles to better understand psychological adjustment among children diagnosed with craniopharyngioma. Method Actigraphs recorded nightly sleep data, including measures of sleep onset latency (SOL) and wake after sleep onset (WASO), in a cohort of 80 youth between the ages of 2 and 20 years (median age = 9). Parent reports of behavioral and emotional functioning were included in the analysis. A latent profile analysis examined disparate sleep profiles, and a multinomial logistic regression examined differences of anxiety and depression among the sleep profiles. Results The latent profile analysis revealed three sleep profiles: "healthy sleepers" (68.8%), "night wakers" (21.3%), and "prolonged onset sleepers" (10.0%). Contrary to expectations, sleep profiles were not associated with daytime anxiety (β = 2.26-4.30, p > .05) or depression (β = -5.87-4.74, p > .05). Conclusions Youth with craniopharyngioma demonstrate poor sleep and EDS. Those with delayed SOL and prolonged WASO are particularly vulnerable to disrupted nighttime sleep, which may significantly compound EDS. Disrupted sleep was not associated with anxiety or depression, which may be related to the overall poor sleep and daytime sleepiness or to timing, as patients were early in their treatment course. Further study should evaluate the factors underlying sleepiness and daytime function in patients with craniopharyngioma. |
