“…According to our results, higher values of WHiR were associated with shorter sleep duration, lower sleep efficiency and increased time awake after sleep onset. These results are in accordance with previous research emphasizing that, besides being major risk factors for cardiometabolic alterations, cancer and all-cause mortality [58,59], WHiR and abdominal obesity are significantly related to severe sleep disturbances such as short sleep duration and obstructive sleep apnoea [23,60], especially in younger adults [58]. Regarding LMI, we found that those participants with higher LMI exhibited shorter sleep and lower sleep efficiency.…”

“…Regarding LMI, we found that those participants with higher LMI exhibited shorter sleep and lower sleep efficiency. Although controversial to previous studies where LMI was positively associated with sleep quality [23], these results may be explained by evidence exposing that lower LMI was related to longer or excessive sleep duration, potentially due to increased levels of cortisol triggered by sleep disturbances which, in turn, has been related to muscle degradation [61].…”

“…Apart from BMI, cross-sectional studies have also exposed that specific body composition parameters can be closely related to sleep duration and quality. Concretely, lean mass has been positively related to sleep duration and quality, whereas a high fat mass seems to be linked to short and poorer sleep [23][24][25]. Indeed, a combination of both low skeletal muscle mass and increased fat mass, i.e.…”

“…Objective sleep outcomes were assessed using a wrist-worn accelerometer (ActiGraph GT3X+, Pensacola, FL, US) continuously 24 hours a day for during 7 consecutive days [23,30,31]. Subjects were instructed to wear the accelerometers on the non-dominant wrist as much as possible, removing them only when swimming or bathing.…”

BackgroundObesity and short sleep duration have both been related to endocrine and metabolic alterations, type II diabetes mellitus, life-threating cardiovascular diseases, and impaired daytime functioning and mood. However, the bidirectional relationship between these conditions and underlying mechanisms still remain unclear, especially in young adults. ObjectiveThis cross-sectional study therefore was aimed at elucidating the potential association of anthropometric and body composition parameters with objective and subjective sleep duration and quality in young sedentary adults, considering the potential mediating role of objectively-measured sedentariness, physical activity, and diet. MethodsA total of 187 adults aged 18-25 (35.29% men) were included in the study. Body mass index (BMI) and waist-hip ratio were calculated through weight, height, waist and hip circumferences measures.Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scanner was used to assess body composition parameters such as lean mass index, fat mass index and visceral adipose tissue mass. Sedentary time, physical activity, and sleep duration and quality were objectively measured using accelerometry, sleep quality also being subjectively measured with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Dietary intake was assessed by means of 24h recall questionnaires. ResultsBMI, waist-hip ratio and lean mass index were inversely associated to objectively-measured total sleep time and sleep efficiency (p < 0.05). Sedentary time moderated by sex explained the effects of BMI on total sleep time such that a high BMI was related to higher sedentariness in men which, in turn, was significantly associated with shorter sleep duration. DiscussionSedentary time is a link-risk factor mediating the adverse consequences of high BMI on short sleep duration in healthy young men. However, not until the complex association between body 3 composition and sleep in young population is properly understood will it be possible to establish appropriate therapeutic goals addressing the early morbidity and mortality that obesity and short sleep duration certainly determine.

“…It has been previously reported that PSQI and accelerometer records measure different attributes of sleep, highlighting the bias of accelerometry to register wakefulness, thus lying in bed awake but motionless is likely to be coded as sleep 63 . Therefore, it is recommended to use both methods to obtain complementary information additionally to the body movements 64 . These differences in measurement of sleep attributes could explain the different results of the associations between sleep quality and energy metabolism.…”

the aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship of sleep quality and time with basal metabolic rate (BMR) and fuel oxidation in basal conditions and during exercise in sedentary middleaged adults. We also studied the mediation role of dietary intake and adherence to the traditional Mediterranean Diet in the relationship between sleep parameters and energy metabolism parameters.A secondary analysis of the FIT-AGEING study was undertaken. 70 middle-aged sedentary adults (40-65 years old) participated in the present study. Sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and wrist accelerometers (ActiSleep, Actigraph, Pensacola, Florida, USA) for 7 consecutive days. BMR was measured with indirect calorimetry and fuel oxidation was estimated through stoichiometric equations. Maximal fat oxidation was determined by a walking graded exercise test and dietary intake with 24 h recalls. Adherence to the traditional Mediterranean diet was assessed through the PREDIMED questionnaire. PSQI global score (poor sleep quality) was associated with lower basal fat oxidation (BFox), both expressed in g/min and as a percentage of BMR, independently of confounders. We did not find any association between other sleep and energy metabolism parameters. No mediating role of the dietary intake or PREDIMED global score was observed in the association of PSQI and BFox. In conclusion, our study showed that a subjective poor sleep quality was associated with lower BFox, which is not mediated by dietary intake in sedentary adults. Cardiometabolic diseases and obesity are the leading causes of death in developed countries, becoming an epidemic in the last years 1,2. Unhealthy diets represent one of the top risk factors for cardiometabolic diseases and obesity, developing a positive energy balance 3. Simultaneously, a low basal metabolic rate (BMR), an impaired meal-induced thermogenesis and low physical activity levels could result in a reduced total energy expenditure 4. This low total energy expenditure coupled to high energy intake could produce a gradual weight gain and visceral adipose tissue deposition, increasing the risk of cardiometabolic diseases and obesity 5. The ability to oxidize fat as a fuel is considered an important metabolic health parameter 6. An impaired ability to oxidize fat is associated with an increased risk of obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, cancer and systemic inflammation 7. Therefore, fat oxidation in basal conditions (BFox) and maximal fat oxidation during exercise (MFO) are considered markers of metabolic health 8-10. Sleep pattern variations, including a decrease in the quality and quantity of sleep, have been shown to be also a risk factor for the development of obesity and cardiometabolic diseases 11. These changes in sleep quality and quantity disrupt the circadian rhythms and may have deleterious consequences on people health 12. Previous studies have provided a causal link between short sleep duration and poor sleep qu...
