Abstract
Abstract Introduction Sleep quality and weight are inversely correlated in young adults (i.e., as weight increases, sleep quality decreases), but results are still inconsistent among older adults. Objective To examine the association between body mass index (BMI) and the waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) with sleep quality in older adults. Method 513 participants >60 years old were recruited. Data on BMI, WHR, age, gender, alcohol consumption, depression, comorbidities, and sleep (Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)) were collected. Univariate and multivariate linear regression methods were used to evaluate the association between BMI, WHR and PSQI. Results 503 participants were included. There was a significant association between BMI (β = 0.10 95%CI: 0.04 to 0.15) and PSQI in the linear analysis, but not confirmed in the multivariate regression. No significant associations were observed between WHR and PSQI. Conclusion Neither BMI nor WHR were related to sleep quality in the older population.
期刊介绍:
This comprehensive journal is recognized for its useful balance of research and clinical practice articles. For more than twenty five years Physical & Occupational Therapy in Geriatrics has functioned as a forum for allied health professionals as well as others with a focus on rehabilitation of the geriatric client to share information, clinical experience, research, and therapeutic practice. Each issue focuses on current practice and emerging issues in the care of the older client, including rehabilitation and long-term care in institutional and community settings, and innovative programming; the entire range of problems experienced by the elderly; and the current skills needed for working with older clients.
