“…Our data showing large sex differences in caloric intake are consistent with population evidence suggesting that men are more susceptible to weight gain resulting from sleep loss (19)(20)(21) and with our experimental findings that men gained more weight than women did during an SR protocol (9). As a result of their larger mass, men eat more than women do (37); indeed, we showed that men consumed more calories during baseline and SR than did women.…”

“…This pattern has also been observed in adolescents (22,23) and children (24,25). Using self-report surveys, 2 recent population studies showed that sleep duration was inversely associated with BMI in men only, whereas poor sleep quality was positively associated with BMI in women only (20,21). In a prospective cohort study, short sleep duration was associated with weight gain and the development of obesity at 1 y follow-up in men but not women (26).…”

Background: Evidence indicates that men and African Americans may be more susceptible to weight gain resulting from sleep loss than women and whites, respectively. Increased daily caloric intake is a major behavioral mechanism that underlies the relation between sleep loss and weight gain. Objective: We sought to assess sex and race differences in caloric intake, macronutrient intake, and meal timing during sleep restriction. Design: Forty-four healthy adults aged 21-50 y (mean 6 SD: 32.7 6 8.7 y; n = 21 women, n = 16 whites) completed an in-laboratory protocol that included 2 consecutive baseline nights [10 or 12 h time in bed (TIB)/night; 2200-0800 or 2200-1000] followed by 5 consecutive sleep-restriction nights (4 h TIB/night; 0400-0800). Caloric intake and meal-timing data were collected during the 2 d after baseline sleep and the first 3 d after sleep restriction. Results: During sleep restriction, subjects increased daily caloric intake (P , 0.001) and fat intake (P = 0.024), including obtaining more calories from condiments, desserts, and salty snacks (Ps , 0.05) and consumed 532.6 6 295.6 cal during late-night hours (2200-0359). Relative to women, men consumed more daily calories during baseline and sleep restriction, exhibited a greater increase in caloric intake during sleep restriction (d = 0.62), and consumed a higher percentage of daily calories during late-night hours (d = 0.78, Ps , 0.05). African Americans and whites did not significantly differ in daily caloric intake, increased caloric intake during sleep restriction, or meal timing. However, African Americans consumed more carbohydrates, less protein, and more caffeine-free soda and juice than whites did during the study (Ps , 0.05). Conclusions: Men may be more susceptible to weight gain during sleep loss than women due to a larger increase in daily caloric intake, particularly during late-night hours. These findings are relevant to the promotion of public health awareness by highlighting nutritional risk factors and modifiable behaviors for weight gain related to sleep-wake timing. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT02128737 and NCT02130791.

“…Spaeth et al [48] found that men exhibited a greater increase in daily caloric intake during sleep restriction as a result of consuming more calories during late-night hours than women did. Population studies showed that sleep duration was inversely associated with BMI in men only, whereas poor sleep quality was positively associated with BMI in women only [49,50]. Due to the cross-sectional nature of the study, a causal connection between sleep duration and the risk of obesity cannot be fully explained.…”

Introduction: So far, the association between a longer sleep duration, state of health, and the risk of obesity and the influence of gender on the association between sleep duration and the risk of obesity has not been fully explained. Aim of the research: To examine the relationships between self-reported sleep duration, body mass index (BMI), and body fat percentage (%BF), and also to determine whether such associations are the same in men and in women. Material and methods: This study included 10,367 participants aged 37 to 66 years. Logistic regression was applied for risk assessment of the prevalence of abnormal BMI values and %BF in groups of sleep duration. Sleep of 7-8 h per night was adopted as a reference level. Results: In men, the risk of obesity was significantly greater only in the group sleeping ≤ 6 h (OR = 1.18, 95% CI: 1.08-1.28; p < 0.05); however, in women, only among those sleeping ≥ 9 h (OR = 1.14, 95% CI: 1.02-1.26; p < 0.05). The risk of obesity, determined on the basis of %BF, was higher only in individuals sleeping ≥ 9 h. In the adjusted model, it turned out to be significant in the general study population (OR = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.07-1.53; p < 0.05) and in women (OR = 1.14, 95% CI: 1.03-1.27; p < 0.05). Conclusions: In women, a greater risk of obesity was related to a longer sleep duration (≥ 9 h), whereas in men, the tendency of obesity occurrence along with shorter sleep (≤ 6 h). Thus, the physiological consequences of sleep duration may be different in women than in men.

“…Among the few studies that collected information on different sleep characteristics, only a minority of them attempted to control for other sleep aspects. For example, three studies adjusted for sleep duration [5, 9, 11] and one study adjusted for snoring [6] in their analysis on sleep quality and adiposity, and reported that the association between poor sleep quality and higher BMI remained after the additional adjustment. In our study, after simultaneously including all three sleep variables in the model, we found that snoring remained strongly associated with adiposity regardless of sleep duration and quality, suggesting that this relationship is robust and may involve distinct mechanisms.…”

BackgroundShort sleep has been linked to obesity. However, sleep is a multidimensional behavior that cannot be characterized solely by sleep duration. There is limited study that comprehensively examined different sleep characteristics in relation to obesity.MethodsWe examined various aspects of sleep in relation to adiposity in 2005–2006 NHANES participants who were 18 or older and free of cardiovascular disease, cancer, emphysema, chronic bronchitis and depression (N = 3995). Sleep characteristics were self-reported, and included duration, overall quality, onset latency, fragmentation, daytime sleepiness, snoring, and sleep disorders. Body measurements included weight, height, waist circumference, and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry measured fat mass.ResultsSnoring was associated with higher BMI (adjusted difference in kg/m2 comparing snoring for 5+ nights/week with no snoring (95 % confidence interval), 1.85 (0.88, 2.83)), larger waist circumference (cm, 4.52 (2.29, 6.75)), higher percentage of body fat (%, 1.61 (0.84, 2.38)), and higher android/gynoid ratio (0.03 (0.01, 0.06)). The associations were independent of sleep duration and sleep quality, and cannot be explained by the existence of sleep disorders such as sleep apnea. Poor sleep quality (two or more problematic sleep conditions) and short sleep duration (<6 h) were also associated with higher measures of body size and fat composition, although the effects were attenuated after snoring was adjusted.ConclusionIn a nationally representative sample of healthy US adults, snoring, short sleep, and poor sleep quality were associated with higher adiposity.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1186/s40608-016-0128-y) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
