Are sleep time and quality associated with inflammation in children and adolescents? A systematic review
Abstract
Highlights • In epidemiological studies, accelerometers serve as the primary tool for quantifying sleep duration.• In assessing sleep quality subjectively, epidemiological studies often utilize the PSQI questionnaire.• Sleep duration and inflammatory markers show no association.• The evidence suggests a minor correlation between poor sleep quality and elevated C-reactive protein.• The association between sleep parameters and inflammatory biomarkers in lower-middle-income countries remains unexplored.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a systematic review, done in people. Its evidence level is 1 of 5 (Highest · pooled evidence). Pooled evidence from several studies sits at the top of the evidence pyramid.
