Abstract

This study evaluated the nutrient adequacy ratio (NAR) and depression based on the sleep duration of adult women using data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) 2016 and 2018. A total of 4,507 subjects were divided into two groups: sleep hours＜7 (lack of sleep, LS) and 7≤ sleep hours (normal sleep, NS). For a more detailed analysis, the subjects were further divided into normal sleep with no depression (NSND) and lack of sleep with depression (LSWD) groups. When compared with NS group, the nutrient intake of the LS group was observed to be higher in carbohydrates (P＜0.05) and thiamine (P＜0.01), but had a significantly lower mean nutrient adequacy ratio (P＜0.05). Also, the LS group showed a higher frequency of early menopause (P＜0.001) and depression (P＜0.05) than the NS group. In the analysis of anthropometry and blood parameters of the subjects based on their sleep duration, the LS group showed a lower body mass index (BMI, P＜0.05), lower blood creatinine (P＜0.01), glycated hemoglobin (P＜0.05), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (P＜0.01) levels adjusted by age and menopause than the NS group. When compared to the NSND group, the LSWD group had a lower intake of cholesterol (P＜0.05), vitamin A (P＜0.05), vitamin C (P＜0.05), and folic acid (P＜0.05). There was no variation in the menopausal status, NAR, and mean nutrient adequacy ratio between the NSND and LSWD groups. However, there were differences in total blood cholesterol (P＜0.05) and depression based on sleep duration. Apart from nutritional status, differences in BMI and blood parameters were observed based on sleep duration.
