A lower sleep regularity index (SRI) is associated with relapse in individuals with alcohol use disorder following inpatient treatment.

ABSTRACT: The sleep regularity index (SRI) is used to measure an individual's sleep/wake consistency over time. The SRI has been associated with certain health risks; to date, research investigating the relationship between the SRI and relapse in individuals with alcohol use disorder (AUD) is lacking. The aim of this work was to evaluate the SRI and relapse in individuals with AUD following inpatient treatment. Individuals with AUD (n = 77, mean age = 49.5 ± 10.86) were assessed for 28-days following discharge from an inpatient treatment program. Logistic regression was applied to examine the impact of SRI on relapse as the outcome variable of interest. Sleep quality was lower in individuals who relapsed compared to those who did not. Moreover, SRI scores were significantly worse in those who relaps
