Abstract

Objective To investigate the combined associations of sleeping time and sedentary behaviour with overweight and obesity, in order to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of overweight and obesity in children and adolescents. Methods A multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select primary and secondary school students in Guangzhou City from September 2023 to January 2024, finally 799 students were enrolled. Data collection was carried out through physical examination data and questionnaires, with the data classified according to the "Screening for overweight and obesity among school-age children and adolescents" (WS/T 586-2018), categorizing individuals into either overweight/obese or non-overweight/obese groups. χ² test was used to compare the differences between different groups, while the binary Logistic regression was used to analyze the association of sedentary behaviour and sleeping time with overweight and obesity in children and adolescents. Results The rate of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents aged 7 to 19 years in Guangzhou City was 16.5%(132/799). After controlling for confounding factors, compared with the reference group adequate sleep & sedentary time ≤ 8h/d group, the risk of overweight and obesity was higher in the inadequate sleep & sedentary time ≤8h/d group (OR=1.799, 95%CI: 1.077 - 3.004) and the inadequate sleep & sedentary time > 8h/d group (OR=1.931, 95%CI: 1.077 - 3.459). Conclusions There is a combined correlation of sleep duration and sedentary behavior with overweight-obesity among children and adolescents. As children and adolescents are in a critical period of growth and development, it is important to ensure sufficient sleep time and reduce sedentary time to prevent the occurrence and development of overweight-obesity in this population.
