Sleep Quality and Associated Factors among Adolescents

Objective To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to verify the association between smartphone/tablet exposure and physical activity and sleep in children from 5 to 10 years old. Data Source: This study followed the guidelines of PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) and included studies that met eligibility criteria based on the “PECO” strategy: participants (children from 5 to 10 years old), exposure (smartphone and tablet use), and outcome (physical activity and sleep). Study Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria The inclusion criteria were observational studies published in indexed scientific journals and written in Portuguese, English, and Spanish that verified the association of exposure to smartphones/tablets with physical activity and sleep in children aged 5 to 10 years of both sexes. Studies were considered eligible only if they met the previous criteria. Data Extraction: The search was conducted in January 2023 on databases from electronic journals without the restriction of the period. To meta-analyze were extracted and grouped using models of fixed and random effects, the coefficients Odds Ratio (OR), Beta (β), Standard Error (SE), and Confidence Intervals of 95% (95%CI). Data Synthesis: 2396 potentially relevant papers were identified, and 17 met the inclusion criteria. Results It can be verified that there was an inverse association between smartphones with physical activity and sleep. Studies indicate that for every additional hour of smartphone and tablet use, sleep can be expected to decrease by an average of 11 minutes (β = − 0.11; 95%CI = −0.13; −0.09). Children using smartphones and tablets were 1.79 times (OR = 1.79; 95%CI = 1.72-1.86) more likely to have shorter sleep duration and 1.53 times (OR = 1.53; 95%CI = 1.41-1.65) more likely to have worse sleep quality. Children with shorter smartphone and tablet usage were 1.19 times more likely to be active (OR = 1.19; 95% CI = 1.03-1.37). Conclusion Children of 5 to 10 years who are more often exposed to smartphones and tablets are prone to have worse quality and quantity of sleep, as well as less practice of physical activity. Health promotion actions can be encouraged based on the results, aiming to reduce the use time of these devices and improve children’s health and quality of life.

El hábito deportivo resulta esencial para el descanso nocturno del adolescente de Bachillerato. Este estudio analiza la influencia de la práctica deportiva sobre tres variables: conocimiento, calidad e higiene del sueño. Los 145 adolescentes (M = 16.72; DE = 0.74) que componen la muestra reportaron un deficiente conocimiento en nociones del sueño (SBS = 12.04), una pobre calidad del sueño (AYA-PSQI-S = 8.36) y una perfectible higiene del sueño (ASHSr = 4.26). Sin embargo, el 83.6% de los estudiantes que realizaban actividad física demostraron puntuaciones medias totales más altas en las tres variables, asumiendo diferencias significativas (p < 0.05) en las dimensiones de duración y eficiencia del sueño, en comparación al alumnado sedentario. Además, según el estudio, el ejercicio actúa como protector ante la deficitaria calidad de sueño y como impulsor de la higiene del sueño. Por su parte, la alta intensidad de la práctica de ejercicio físico está relacionada con un mejor desempeño en la dimensión de duración de sueño y un mayor autoconcepto, teniendo en cuenta que horas de práctica tardías están relacionadas negativamente con la hora de cenar, postergando el descanso. El hábito deportivo influye positivamente en el conocimiento, la calidad y la higiene del sueño adolescente; apostando por el ejercicio de fuerza, a intensidades submáximas y alejadas en la medida posible de la hora de dormir.
