Abstract

Insomnia disorder, defined by nocturnal and daytime symptoms, is highly prevalent worldwide and is associated with the onset of mental illness. Although daytime symptoms are often the reason insomnia patients seek help, it is not clear whether recommended treatment is effective on daytime symptoms. We aimed to investigate the efficacy of cognitive and behavior therapies for insomnia (CBT-I) on all daytime symptoms explored in the literature using both direct and indirect data. 86 studies (15,578 participants) met inclusion criteria. Results showed significant effects of CBT-I administered face-to-face individually, in group and different self-help settings on depressive symptoms, anxiety, daytime sleepiness, fatigue, quality of life, daytime and social functioning and mental state, with Cohen's d's ranging from -0.52 and 0.81. Our results suggest that CBT-I is effective in the treatment of daytime symptoms, albeit with predominantly small to moderate effects compared to far stronger effects on the core symptoms of insomnia. Effects may be biased for depressive and anxiety symptoms, since many included studies excluded patients with severe levels of these complaints. Further, small to moderate effects may reflect that CBT-I, by improving nighttime symptoms, has a positive effect on daytime symptoms, but it does not target the daytime symptoms directly. Future studies may benefit from adding therapeutic techniques that address daytime symptoms more directly.

  • Little research has investigated the effect of non-pharmacological sleep interventions other than CBT-I on anxiety symptoms.

    “yet little research has investigated the effect of other sleep interventions on anxiety symptoms.”

    From Do non-pharmacological sleep interventions affect anxiety symptoms? A meta-analysis (2022) · cites this paper as Benz et al., 2020

    The results (Journal Pre-proof; page unavailable) report 47 studies measuring anxiety or worry, primarily in an analysis of CBT-I. The study-selection passage says the review included other interventions as comparators to CBT-I, but our copy does not establish how much research has investigated non-CBT-I sleep interventions for anxiety. Searched for statements about the number or scarcity of such studies. (LLM, conf=0.75)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Effects in previous meta-analyses may be biased because many studies excluded participants with severe levels of anxiety.

    “Additionally, this meta-analysis comments that effects may be biased given many studies excluded participants with severe levels of anxiety.”

    From Do non-pharmacological sleep interventions affect anxiety symptoms? A meta-analysis (2022) · cites this paper as Benz et al., 2020

    The Risk of bias section discusses randomization, reporting and attrition, while the Anxiety/worry section cautions that heterogeneity was high. Neither says that many studies excluded participants with severe anxiety or that such exclusions may have biased meta-analytic effects (searched: severe anxiety, excluded participants, anxiety severity). The indexed passages provide no page numbers. (LLM, conf=0.73)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • In patients with insomnia without psychiatric comorbidity, CBT-I is highly effective for improving self-rated insomnia severity and several other sleep parameters, including daytime symptoms.

    “In patients with insomnia without psychiatric comorbidity, CBT-I is highly effective for the improvement of self-rated insomnia severity and several other sleep parameters like for example sleep onset latency and wake time after sleep onset [9], including daytime symptoms [10].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
