Short sleep duration is a contributing factor for decreased insulin sensitivity and hyperglycemia. Sleep architecture represents a cyclical pattern of sleep that shifts between sleep Stages N1, N2, N3 (slow wave sleep) and Stage R (rapid eye movement sleep). The aim of the present study was to examine the association between sleep architecture and glucose and insulin metabolism in both normal weight and overweight/obese children and adolescents.

儿童和青少年的睡眠结构与葡萄糖耐量之间的关联。

睡眠时间短是降低胰岛素敏感性和高血糖症的一个因素。睡眠结构表示睡眠的周期性模式，在睡眠阶段N1，N2，N3（慢波睡眠）和阶段R（快速眼动睡眠）之间转换。本研究的目的是研究正常体重，超重/肥胖儿童和青少年的睡眠结构与葡萄糖和胰岛素代谢之间的关系。
