Association between sleep duration and patterns and obesity: a cross-sectional study of the 2007–2018 national health and nutrition examination survey
Unhealthy sleep patterns and shorter sleep duration were positively correlated with obesity occurrence, and there was a non-linear relationship between sleep duration and the occurrence of obesity. Interventions aimed at promoting healthy sleep habits and appropriate sleep duration may be important in reducing the risk of obesity.
