To determine whether adult people with sleep maintenance problems have significantly melatonin levels comparable normal sleepers. The research was carried out by cross sectional and case-control study. Data were collectedbetween May 2014 and September 2014. We studied 203 healthy adults over the age of 20 years who either slept normally or sleep maintenance problems. A decrease in the quality of sleep is believed to cause anxiety andworsen depression. The quality of sleep was scored using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) a questionnaire method. State and trait anxieties, and depression were scored using other questionnaire methods: the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and CES-D (Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale), respectively. Serum levels of melatonin were measured in the subjects at 02am, 10am. In the research were involved 126 (62percent) women, 77 (37.9 percent) men and their meanage was 52.24±14.67. 53.7% (n=109) of all subjects were normal sleepers and 46.3% (n=94) were sleep maintenanceproblems. 9.9%(n=20) of all subjects were anxiety, 8.3% (n=17) were depression. Night: day melatonin excretory ratios were similarly in people with sleep maintenanceproblems, normal sleepers have difference.

Sleep is a behavioral state that is a natural part of every individual’s life. To determine the role of health status and social support in the relationship between stresses, depression, anxiety and sleep disturbance, for both intermittent and chronic sleep disturbance. The research was carried out by cross sectional and case-control study. Data were collected between May 2014 and September 2014. We studied 203 healthy adults over the age of 20 years who either slept normally or sleep maintenance problems. The quality of sleep was scored using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) a questionnaire method. State and trait anxieties, and depression were scored using other questionnaire methods: the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and CES-D (Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale), respectively. All results calculated by SPSS 21.0 programs.The average age was 52.2±14.7 years in our study participants. The rate of self-reported poor sleep quality was found in 46.3% (n=94) of patients according to the PSQI global score (≥5) and53.7% (n=109) patients were normal sleepers. 16.3% (n=33) of all subjects were state anxiety, 9.9% (n=20) were trait anxiety, 8.3% (n=17) were depression. Sleep disturbance was significantly associated with an onset in the evening tea and coffee drinking (OR= 7.0, p = 0.012), majordepressive disorder (OR= 4.2, p=0.015), and stress factors (OR=2.6, p=0.009), meals before going to bed (OR=2.1, p=0.049), but daytime sleep (OR=0.5, p=0.025) is conservation impact.Our results shows, that bad living habits (evening tea, coffee, late sleep and meal habits) depress and stress factors was associated with sleep disturbance, daytime sleep is conservation impact.
