Weekend catch-up sleep is associated with the alleviation of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

Introduction and objectives: Recently, interest in the relationship between weekend catch-up sleep (WCUS) and chronic diseases is increasing. We aimed to study the correlation between sleep duration and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), an emerging metabolic disease. Materials and methods:...

description Introduction and objectives: Recently, interest in the relationship between weekend catch-up sleep (WCUS) and chronic diseases is increasing. We aimed to study the correlation between sleep duration and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), an emerging metabolic disease. Materials and methods: Data on sleep duration from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey was recorded. The subjects were divided into three groups according to the duration of WCUS: Group 1, those who slept for less than 7 hours in a week; Group 2, those who slept for less than 7 hours on weekdays but more than 7 hours on weekends (those with WCUS pattern); and Group 3, those who slept for more than 7 hours in a week. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the correlation between sleep duration and NAFLD. Results: A mean sleep time of 7 hours or more showed a significant negative relationship with NAFLD (odds ratio [OR]: 0.84, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.79–0.89 in all; OR 0.91, 95%CI 0.84–0.99 in males; OR 0.86, 95%CI 0.79–0.94 in females). Groups 2 and 3 showed significant negative relationships with NAFLD when Group 1 was used as a reference (Group 2; OR: 0.80, 95%CI: 0.70–0.92, Group 3; OR: 0.73, 95%CI: 0.66–0.82). WCUS showed similar correlations with NAFLD, regardless of sex. Conclusions: WCUS and sleep duration are significantly associated with NAFLD. A prospective cohort study is needed to prove the causal effects.
