Effect of mindfulness-based stress reduction on sleep quality: results of a randomized trial among Danish breast cancer patients
Open accessAbstract
UNLABELLED: The prevalence of sleep disturbance is high among cancer patients, and the sleep problems tend to last for years after the end of treatment. As part of a large randomized controlled clinical trial (the MICA trial, NCT00990977) of the effect of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) on psychological and somatic symptoms among breast cancer patients, the aim of the current study was to evaluate the effect of MBSR on the secondary outcome, 'sleep quality'. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 336 women operated on for breast cancer stage I-III 3-18 months previously were randomized to MBSR (n = 168) or treatment as usual (n = 168); both groups received standard clinical care. The intervention consisted of an eight-week MBSR program (psycho-education, meditation and gentle yoga). Sleep quality was assessed on the Medical Outcome Study sleep scale at baseline, after the intervention and at six- and 12-months' follow-up. RESULTS: The mean sleep problem scores were significantly lower in the MBSR group than in controls immediately after the intervention. Quantile regression analyses showed that the effect was statistically significant only for the participants represented by the lower percentile of change between baseline and post-intervention, i.e. those who had more sleep problems; the MBSR group had a significantly smaller increase in sleep problems than the control group. After the 12-month follow-up, there was no significant between-group effect of MBSR on sleep quality in intention-to-treat analyses. CONCLUSION: MBSR had a statistically significant effect on sleep quality just after the intervention but no long-term effect among breast cancer patients. Future trials in which participation is restricted to patients with significant sleep problems are recommended for evaluating the effect of MBSR on sleep quality.

Mindfulness meditation is effective for sleep problems, anxiety, and depression, which often co-occur with pain in Veterans.
“MM has also been shown to be effective for treating conditions frequently co-occurring with pain in Veterans, including sleep problems[32, 33], anxiety,[31, 34] and depression.[35, 36]”
From The chronic pain skills study: Protocol for a randomized controlled trial comparing hypnosis, mindfulness meditation and pain education in Veterans (2020) · cites this paper as [32]
The Mean sleep scores and Conclusion sections (pages unavailable) report a small improvement in sleep quality immediately after MBSR among women treated for breast cancer. They report no significant effect at six or twelve months. This source supports the sleep-problems portion of the cited sentence, but not effectiveness in Veterans or a sustained treatment effect; the anxiety and depression claims have separate citations.

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredControlled trial evidence supports the use of mind-body interventions for sleep disturbances in adults.
“Indeed, controlled trial evidence provides support for the use of mind-body interventions for sleep disturbances in adults (Andersen et al, 2013;Britton et al, 2012)”

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.
