The goal of the study was to estimate the prevalence and correlates of anxiety-induced sleep disturbance (AISD) among adolescent school children in Benin. Nationally representative cross-sectional data were analysed from 2 536 adolescents (median age = 17 years) that participated in the 2016 Benin Global School-Based Student Health Survey (GSHS). The results indicate that the prevalence of AISD was 20.9%, 21.3% among males and 19.8% among females. In adjusted logistic regression analysis, older age, mostly or always feeling hungry (or low economic status), having sustained a serious injury in the past year, and lonelineness were associated with AISD. In addition, in unadjusted logistic regression analysis, ever cannabis use, school truancy, having no close friends, and multiple sexual partners were associated with AISD. More than one in five students reported AISD. Anxiety mitigation interventions with school learners in Benin should prioritise lonely older students, those with food insecurity, and those who had a physical injury.

贝宁全国在校青少年抽样调查中焦虑引起的睡眠障碍及相关因素的患病率
该研究的目的是评估贝宁青少年学生中由焦虑引起的睡眠障碍(AISD)的患病率及其相关性。分析了参与2016年贝宁全球基于学校的学生健康调查(GSHS)的2536名青少年(中位年龄= 17岁)的全国代表性横断面数据。结果表明,AISD的患病率为20.9%,男性为21.3%,女性为19.8%。在调整后的逻辑回归分析中,AISD与年龄较大的人或大多数人感到饥饿(或经济状况低下),在过去的一年中受到严重伤害以及孤独感相关。此外,在未经调整的逻辑回归分析中,曾经使用过的大麻,学校逃学,没有亲密朋友以及有多个性伴侣都与AISD相关。超过五分之一的学生报告了AISD。贝宁学校学习者的缓解焦虑干预措施应优先考虑孤独的年长学生,那些粮食不安全的人和遭受身体伤害的人。
