Abstract

Abstract

Objective This study aims to explore associations between sleep duration, eating habits and childhood obesity among children aged 6-14 years. Methods We used multi-stage stratified cluster sampling to selected 10 primary and secondary schools in Maoming City, Guangdong Province to collect information of children's demography, sleep duration, eating habits, height and weight via self-reported questionnaire and anthropometric measurement. Results The obesity prevalence among 5 179 children was 14.02%. The prevalence of boys was significantly higher than that of girls. 40.75% of children were lack of sufficient nighttime sleep duration. Compared with children aged above 12 years, children aged 6-11 years had higher rate of insufficient sleep time. There was a negative correlation between children's nighttime sleep duration and high-risk diet scores (r=-0.112, P < 0.001). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that sufficient night sleep duration and longer eating duration can reduce the risk of obesity in male students, yet this association was not significant in female students. Conclusions Sleep duration and eating habits are independent factors related with children's obesity. Interventions in childhood obesity should recommend adequate sleep duration and healthy eating habits.
