Abstract
Simple Summary: To our knowledge, this is the first study to address both sleep duration and psychological stress in association with GC risk. Long sleep was associated with gastric cancer, and its subsites and histological types, and stress increased the risk of noncardia cancer in particular. The two exposures exerted an independent effect on GC. These findings contribute to providing evidence for the role of sleep and stress in gastric cancer epidemiology. The association between sleep and stress and cancer is underinvestigated. We evaluated these factors in association with gastric cancer (GC). Five case-control studies from the Stomach Cancer Pooling (StoP) Project were included. We calculated the odds ratios (ORs) and the corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for sleep duration and stress level in association with GC through multiple logistic regression models adjusted for several lifestyle factors. The analysis included 1293 cases and 4439 controls, 215 cardia and 919 noncardia GC, and 353 diffuse and 619 intestinal types. Sleep duration of ≥9 h was associated with GC (OR =1.57, 95% CI = 1.23–2.00) compared to 8 h. This was confirmed when stratifying by subsite (noncardia OR = 1.59, 95% CI = 1.22–2.08, and cardia OR = 1.63, 95% CI = 0.97–2.72) and histological type (diffuse OR = 1.65, 95% CI = 1.14–2.40 and intestinal OR = 1.24, 95% CI = 0.91–1.67). Stress was associated with GC (OR = 1.33, 95% CI = 1.18–1.50, continuous). This relationship was selectively related to noncardia GC (OR = 1.28, 95% 1.12–1.46, continuous). The risk of diffuse (OR = 1.32, 95% CI = 1.11–1.58) and intestinal type (OR = 1.23, 95% CI = 1.07–1.42) were higher when stress was reported. Results for the association between increasing level of stress and GC were heterogeneous by smoking and socioeconomic status (p for heterogeneity = 0.02 and <0.001, respectively). In conclusion, long sleep duration (≥9 h) was associated with GC and its subtype categories. Stress linearly increased the risk of GC and was related to noncardia GC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
