“…In this regard, our research supports a direct and indirect association between daytime sleepiness and prosocial behavior. These results are also in line with previous research showing that poor sleep quality tends to be associated with a decrease in prosocial behavior in children (da Silva et al, 2020;Horiuchi et al, 2020). This finding could be due to the fact that children with sleep disorders, and daytime sleepiness in particular, tend to present emotional and behavioral dysregulation, which could, therefore, negatively affect the child's social adjustment and result in greater rejection and exclusion from their peers, thus inhibiting social interactions and the development of prosocial behavior (Palermo et al, 2007;Sette et al, 2013).…”

High sleep quality is an important indicator of children’s development as well as their good health. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and prosocial behaviors in kindergarten-aged children, as well as exploring the possible mediating role of the teacher-student relationship underlying them. Participants included 60 teachers aged from 23 to 62 (M = 47.9, SD = 9.73) in Italy who completed the student-teacher relationship scale, the daytime sleepiness questionnaire, and the strength and difficulties questionnaire. The children who were rated by teachers were 936 kindergarten children aged from 3 to 6 (M = 4.20, SD = 0.91). The results showed that children’s daytime sleepiness significantly predicted all three dimensions of the student-teacher relationship. Specifically, children’s EDS negatively predicted closeness and positively predicted conflict and dependence, and furthermore, these three dimensions of the relationship significantly predicted children’s prosocial behaviors. For older children in our sample, their EDS was more significantly and positively associated with conflict in their relationship with teachers. Our data seem to support the importance of good teacher-student relationship quality in promoting a child’s positive social adjustment, especially in children with behavioral difficulties. Our data also suggest the importance of evaluating the quality of the student-teacher relationship as well as the sleep quality in the children’s daytime sleepiness.

“…Sleep deprivation in children is a very complex matter, that is usually associated with intellectual, behavioral and emotional problems [ 65 , 66 ]. The National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute recommends 10 h of sleep a day for school-aged children [ 67 ], but epidemiological studies show that children sleep much less than that: 31% of American children aged 6 to 11 years sleep less than 9 h per night [ 68 ], 33% of European teenagers sleep less than 8 h [ 69 ], and adults sleep 6 h or less [ 70 ].…”

Early detection of all complications of childhood obesity is imperative in order to minimize effects. Obesity causes vascular disruptions, including early increased arterial stiffness and high blood pressure. This study’s aim is to assess the reliability of pulse wave analysis (PWA) in obese children and how additional risk factors influence the evaluated parameters. We analyzed 55 children aged 6–18 years old by measuring their pulse wave velocity (PWV), augmentation index (AIx), peripheral blood pressure (SBP, DBP), heart rate, central blood pressure (cSBP, cDBP) and central pulse pressure (cPP). We used the oscillometric IEM Mobil-O-Graph and performed a single-point brachial measurement. The subjects were divided into two groups: obese (n = 30) and normal-weight (n = 25) and were clinically and anamnestically assessed. BMI and waist circumference are significantly correlated to higher values for PWV, SBP, DBP, cSBP, and cDBP. Weight significantly predicts PWV, SBP, DBP and cPP. The risk factors that significantly influence the PWA and BP values are: a cardiometabolically risky pregnancy (higher PWV, AIx, SBP), active and passive smoking (higher PWV, SBP, cSBP, cDBP), sleep deprivation (higher PWV, SBP, cSBP) and sedentariness (higher PWV, AIx, peripheral and central BP). We conclude that obese children with specific additional cardiometabolic risk factors present increased arterial stiffness and higher blood pressure values.

“…Indeed, several studies have demonstrated that the administration of orexins, in particular OXA, promotes wakefulness and suppresses rapid eye movement (REM) sleep [ 18 , 19 ], leading to sleep disturbances [ 20 , 21 ]. Moreover, impaired sleep has been associated with the poor social behavior observed among children and adolescents [ 22 ]. Thus, when investigating orexin’s impact on SI, it is crucial to address changes in sleeping patterns.…”

Ever since the discovery of the brain’s orexin/hypocretin system, most research was directed toward unveiling its contribution to the normal functioning of individuals. The investigation of reward-seeking behaviors then gained a lot of attention once the distribution of orexinergic neurons was revealed. Here, we discuss findings on the involvement of orexins in social interaction, a natural reward type. While some studies have succeeded in defining the relationship between orexin and social interaction, the controversy regarding its nature (direct or inverse relation) raises questions about what aspects have been overlooked until now. Upon examining the literature, we identified a research gap concerning conditions influencing the impact of orexins on social behavior expression. In this review, we introduce a number of factors (e.g., stress, orexin’s source) that must be considered while studying the role of orexins in social interaction. Furthermore, we refer to published research to investigate the stage at which orexins affect social interaction and we highlight the nucleus accumbens (NAc) shell’s role in social interaction and other rewarding behaviors. Finally, the underlying orexin molecular pathway influencing social motivation in particular illnesses is proposed. We conclude that orexin’s impact on social interaction is multifactorial and depends on specific conditions available at a time.
