Abstract:
Objective:To explore the association between sleep and myopia among students aged 6-15 years in Tianjin.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted.A total of 218 864 primary and secondary school students aged 6-15 years in Tianjin were recruited from January 2023 to May 2023.Basic information and responses to the Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ) were collected.Logistic regression models were used to assess the association between myopia and sleep.The study followed the Declaration of Helsinki, and the research protocol was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Tianjin Medical University Eye Hospital (No.ChiCTR2200065710). All questionnaires and demographic information were collected with parental consent.Results:It was found that 68 121(31.12%) students were myopic and 178 514(81.56%) had sleep disorders.The prevalence of myopia among students with average daily sleep durations of ≤8 hours, >8-9 hours, >9-10 hours, and >10 hours was 52.17%(9 288/17 803), 35.35%(31 037/87 787), 25.18%(24 481/97 216), and 20.64% (3 315/16 058), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=6 835.649, P<0.001). After adjusting for sex, age, body mass index, and potential confounding factors, compared with students with average daily sleep duration of >10 hours, students with average daily sleep durations of ≤8 hours ( OR=1.496, 95% CI: 1.415-1.581, P<0.001), >8-9 hours ( OR=1.364, 95% CI: 1.383-1.447, P<0.001), and >9-10 hours ( OR=1.257, 95% CI: 1.202-1.316, P<0.001) had a higher risk of myopia.Students with sleep disorders, bedtime resistance, sleep-onset delay, irregular sleep duration, sleep anxiety, night wakings, parasomnias, sleep-disordered breathing, and daytime sleepiness were more likely to be myopic. Conclusions:Sleep is a key factor influencing myopia among schoolchildren aged 6-15 years in Tianjin.
