Objective To evaluate the associations of parent-reported sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and device-assessed sleep behaviors with behavioral and emotional functioning in pediatric patients with overweight/obesity.
Study design A total of 109 children with overweight/obesity (mean age, 10.0 +/- 1.1 years) were included in this cross-sectional study. We used the Spanish version of the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire (PSQ) to assess SDB and its subscales (ie, snoring, daytime sleepiness, and inattention/hyperactivity). Device-assessed sleep behaviors (ie, wake time, sleep onset time, total time in bed, total sleep time, and waking after sleep onset) were estimated using wrist-worn accelerometers. We used the Behavior Assessment System for Children, second edition to assess behavioral and emotional functioning (ie, clinical scale: aggressiveness, hyperactivity, behavior problems, attention problems, atypicality, depression, anxiety, retreat, and somatization; adaptive scale: adaptability, social skills, and leadership).
Results SDB was positively associated with all clinical scale variables (all beta > 0.197, P <=.041) and with lower adaptability and leadership (all beta < -0.226, P < .021). Specifically, the PSQ subscale relating to daytime sleepiness was associated with higher attention problems, depression, anxiety, and retreat (all beta > 0.196, P .045) and lower adaptability (beta = -0.246, P = .011). The inattention/hyperactivity subscale was significantly associated with the entire clinical and adaptive scales (all beta > vertical bar 0.192 vertical bar, P <= .046) except for somatization. The snoring subscale and device-assessed sleep behaviors were not related to any behavioral or emotional functioning variables.
Conclusions Our study suggests that SDB symptoms, but not device-assessed sleep behaviors, are associated with behavioral and emotional functioning in children with overweight/obesity. Specifically, daytime sleepiness, a potential SDB symptom, was related to higher attention problems, depression, anxiety, and retreat and lower adaptability.
