TLDR
Investigation of cross-sectional and prospective associations of self-reported sleep quality with biomarkers of inflammation and coagulation implicated in coronary heart disease (CHD) and to explore whether these associations differed between men and women found poorer subjective sleep quality at baseline was prospectively associated with 5-year increases in IL-6.

Sleep Disturbance, Sleep Duration, and Inflammation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Cohort Studies and Experimental Sleep Deprivation

TL;DR: Global evidence linking sleep disturbance, sleep duration, and inflammation in adult humans is assessed and sleep disturbance and long sleep duration are associated with increases in markers of systemic inflammation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Sleep-Immune Crosstalk in Health and Disease

TL;DR: The induction of a hormonal constellation that supports immune functions is one likely mechanism underlying the immune-supporting effects of sleep, and sleep appears to promote inflammatory homeostasis through effects on several inflammatory mediators, such as cytokines.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sleep and inflammation: partners in sickness and in health.

TL;DR: The current understanding of the relationship between sleep dynamics and host defence mechanisms is described, with a focus on cytokine responses, the neuroendocrine and autonomic pathways that connect sleep with the immune system and the role of inflammatory peptides in the homeostatic regulation of sleep.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sleep Health: Reciprocal Regulation of Sleep and Innate Immunity

TL;DR: Interactions between sleep and inflammatory biology mechanisms underscore the implications of sleep disturbance for inflammatory disease risk, and provide a map to guide the development of treatments that modulate inflammation, improve sleep, and promote sleep health.
Journal ArticleDOI

Implications of sleep disturbance and inflammation for Alzheimer's disease dementia

TL;DR: A bidirectional relationship between sleep and Alzheimer's disease is supported by advances in understanding of sleep disturbance-induced increases in systemic inflammation, which can be viewed as an early event in the course of Alzheimer’s disease.

Atherosclerosis — An Inflammatory Disease

TL;DR: Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease as discussed by the authors, and it is a major cause of death in the United States, Europe, and much of Asia, despite changes in lifestyle and use of new pharmacologic approaches to lower plasma cholesterol concentrations.

Atherosclerosis is an Inflammatory Disease

TL;DR: Despite changes in lifestyle and the use of new pharmacologic approaches to lower plasma cholesterol concentrations, cardiovascular disease continues to be the principal cause of death in the United States, Europe, and much of Asia.

C-Reactive Protein and Other Markers of Inflammation in the Prediction of Cardiovascular Disease in Women

TL;DR: The addition of the measurement of C-reactive protein to screening based on lipid levels may provide an improved method of identifying persons at risk for cardiovascular events.
