Utilizing data from The 2004 Pelotas (Brazil) Birth Cohort, sleep time window and sleep efficiency were measured at the 11-year-old follow-up using ActiGraph accelerometers. Three sleep-PGSs were developed based on the most recent genome-wide association study (GWAS) of accelerometer-based sleep measures. PRSet, calculated using variants linked to body mass index (BMI) and plasmatic cortisol concentration, aimed to assess pleiotropic effects. Linear regression models, adjusted for sex and the first 10 principal components of ancestry, were employed to explore the impact of sleep-PGS and specific-PRSet on sleep phenotypes. The number of nocturnal sleep episodes-PGS was positively associated with sleep time window (β =2.306, SE: 0.92, p=0.011). Nocturnal sleep episodes were also associated with sleep time window when restricted to BMI-PRSet (β=2.682, SE: 0.912, competitive-p=0.003).
