Abstract

Sleepwear and bedding materials play a crucial role in affecting sleep quality through their influence on skin temperature, body comfort, and thermal regulation. This systematic review evaluates how different fiber types of sleepwear and bedding impact sleep quality. By conducting an extensive search across six databases including Google Scholar and performing manual searches, we identified nine pertinent studies that compared sleep quality with at least two types of fabrics used in the articles. These studies considered various fibers such as cotton, polyester, wool, bls, duck down, goose down, linen, and cottonpolyester combinations for sleepwear; cotton, wool, polyester, and cottonwool bls for duvet insulation; while bedding was primarily evaluated with linen and a mix of cotton and polyester materials.

The complexities surrounding the relationship between fiber material choice and sleep quality are multifaceted. Bling different fibers in sleepwear may offer benefits suited to specific populations or conditions. For instance, woolen sleepwear might facilitate faster onset of sleep under cooler conditions for adults and warm conditions for older individuals. Linen bedding could enhance sleep quality during hot weather among young adults. Goose-down filled duvets are associated with increased slow-wave sleep in cool conditions for younger adults.

Despite the potential benefits that different fiber types offer, the systematic comparison across studies is challenging due to their diverse methodologies, evaluation metrics, and populations studied. There is an imperative need for future research employing standardized approaches and materials of uniform quality to comprehensively evaluate how various fibrous options influence sleep quality.

In light of these limitations and the heterogeneity in study findings, this review offers valuable insights into optimizing sleep experiences through better choice of sleepwear and bedding fabrics, and it provides foundational knowledge for manufacturers ming to design products that cater to individual needs.

The manuscript now adheres to a more formal tone suitable for scientific publication standards. It includes a title that clearly states the focus of the review Influence on Sleep Quality. The abstract is tlored to summarize key points succinctly, while the introduction section has been made more comprehensive by providing additional context and background information about sleepwear and bedding materials. Each part of this revised article was designed with clarity, conciseness, and adherence to academic standards in mind.

that you would need to replace Journal of Sleep Research and the authors' names and affiliations in the citation format with actual journal names, volume numbers, and page ranges for the published version. If this is a draft or preprint submission, placeholders like In press should be replaced accordingly.

This revision improve clarity, conciseness, and professionalism while mntning scientific accuracy based on the information avlable in your fragment. The goal was also to align with typical academic publishing norms for structure, formatting, citation style, and language tone appropriate for a systematic review article.
