Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to explore how maternal depression and anxiety impact the sleep duration of 4-5-year-old children in Brazil.
- Data from 216 children showed that 77.3% slept at least 10 hours a day, while moderate/severe maternal depression was linked to children sleeping less than 10 hours.
- The findings suggest that addressing maternal mental health issues could potentially enhance children's sleep quality and, in turn, their cognitive and emotional development.
Objectives: To evaluate the association of leptin rs7799039 and adiponectin rs2241766 gene polymorphisms on daily sleep duration in 4-5-year-old children.
Methods: Data were obtained from the Predictors of Maternal and Infant Excess Body Weight - PREDI Study, a cohort study conducted in Joinville - Brazil. The current study is a cross-sectional study, which was carried out in the homes of the participants between July 2016 and August 2017.
