“…In this context, other findings indicated that sleep patterns (i.e., quality and duration) were factors that had a significant influence on physical fitness results in Taiwanese adults. Likewise, a cross-sectional study showed that sleep quality was strongly linked to physical fitness (i.e., grip strength, one-leg standing test, back scratch test and vital capacity) in Chinese adults [41]. Moreover, it was reported that worse sleep quality is related to lower levels of physical fitness and less physical activity in young adults [42].…”

Background: Sleep is an important modulator of neuroendocrine function and glucose metabolism. Poor sleep quality is related to metabolic and endocrine alterations, including decreased glucose tolerance, decreased insulin sensitivity, and increased hunger and appetite. Objective: The aim of the present study was to determine the association between sleep quality with metabolic syndrome (MetS) markers, fitness and body fat of women with severe/morbid obesity. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 26 women with severe/morbid obesity. Fasting plasma glucose (FPG), high-density lipids (HDL-c), triglycerides (TGs), and the metabolic outcomes total cholesterol (Tc) and low-density lipids (LDL-c), systolic (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), body composition and fitness were measured. Results: Poor sleep quality showed a positive association with body fat (%) ≥ 48.2 (OR; 8.39, 95% CI; 1.13–62.14, p = 0.037), morbid obesity (OR; 8.44, 95% CI; 1.15–66.0, p = 0.036), glucose ≥ 100 mg/dL (OR; 8.44, 95% CI; 1.15–66.0, p = 0.036) and relative handgrip strength ≤ 0.66 (OR; 12.2, 95% CI; 1.79–83.09, p = 0.011). Conclusion: sleep quality is associated with health markers in women with severe/morbid obesity.

“…Or on the contrary, people with better functional fitness may be more energetic, more resistant to fatigue, and don't need too much sleep [26]. Previous studies [27][28][29][30] have found that people with poor sleep quality were more likely to have lower performances of functional fitness and athletic ability. But few researchers have studied the relationship between sleep duration and functional fitness.…”

Background The relationship between sleep duration and physical fitness is one aspect of sleep health. Potential factors associated with sleep duration interfere with physical fitness performance, but the impact trends on physical fitness indicators remain unclear. Methods This study examined associations between sleep duration and physical fitness among young to middle-aged adults in Taiwan. A total of 42,781 Taiwanese adults aged 23–45 participated in the National Physical Fitness Examination Survey 2013 (NPFES-2013) in Taiwan between October 2013 and March 2014. A standardized structural questionnaire was used to record participants’ sleep duration, which was stratified as short (< 6 h/day (h/d)), moderate (6–7 h/d; 7–8 h/d; 8-9 h), and long (≥ 9 h/d) sleep duration groups. Physical fitness was assessed based on four components: body composition (body mass index [BMI], waist-to-height ratio [WHtR], and waist-to-hip ratio [WHR]), muscle strength and endurance (1-min bent-leg sit-up test [BS]), flexibility (sit-and-reach test [SR]), and cardiorespiratory endurance index (3-min step test [CEI]). Results By using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), after sex grouping and age adjustment, we observed that sleep duration was significantly associated with obesity, functional fitness, and self-perception of health. The sleep duration for low obesity-related values (BMI, WHtR, and WHR) for men was 7–9 h/d, and that for women was 7–8 h/d. Sleeping more than 8 h/d showed poor functional fitness performances (BS and SR). For both sexes, sleep duration of 8–9 h/d was the optimal sleep duration for self-perceptions of health. Conclusions Our research found that there were wide and different associations of sleep duration with physical fitness and self-perception of health among Taiwanese adults aged 23–45, and there were differences in these associated manifestations between men and women. This study could be of great importance in regional public health management in Taiwan, and provide inspirations for clinical research on physical fitness.

“…Several studies conducted among athletes demonstrated that sleep deprivation negatively impairs their physical performance and increases their reaction time and perceived exertion during exercise 8 , 9 . There is also emerging evidence in community-dwelling elderly individuals that self-reported sleep disturbances, together with objectively measured poor sleep, are associated with slower walking speed, weaker muscle strength, and functional performance impairment 10 – 12 . For cancer populations, two studies showed that patients with insomnia had more physical impairment 13 , 14 .…”

Advanced lung cancer patients suffer from deteriorated physical function, which negatively impacts physical and psychological health. As little is known about sleep and physical function in this population, this study aimed to examine the association between subjective and objective sleep parameters and physical function among them. 164 advanced lung cancer patients were included. Objective sleep was measured by actigraphy (measured on non-dominant wrist for 72 h), and subjective sleep quality was assessed by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Performance-based physical function was measured by Timed Up and Go Test (TUGT), 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT), Sit-to-Stand Test, and One-leg Standing Test. Univariable and multivariable regression analyses were employed to examine the association between sleep and physical function. Total sleep time (TST) was significantly associated with the 6MWT (β = 0.259; 95% CI 0.120, 0.398; P < 0.001), TUGT (β = − 0.012; 95% CI = − 0.017, − 0.008; P < 0.001) and Sit-to-Stand Test (β = 0.027; 95% CI = 0.018, 0.035; P < 0.001) after adjustment for multiple covariates. PSQI global score was only significantly associated with TUGT (β = 0.140; 95% CI = 0.000, 0.280; P = 0.050) after adjustment for multiple covariates. Shorter sleep duration significantly predicted poorer physical performance in advanced lung cancer patients, and more attention is required for those with less than 4.3 h of sleep on average.Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03482323.
