Objectives. The aim of this study was to examine the correlation
between sleep disorder and metabolic syndrome disorder in physically disable
peaple. Methods. The
study was conducted among physically disabled persons who were selected from
the Education and Rehabilitation Centre of Disabled People in Çorum, a city
located in the central north of Turkey. Sleep quality is assessed with Turkish
version of Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. The metabolic syndrome disorder,
weight circumference and blood values of participants are examined by three
health personnel from a private hospital in Çorum. Results. One
hundred and three persons (56 M, 47 F) participated in
this study. Metabolic syndrome disorder was found in 23
(22.3%) participants. Forty (38.8%) participants had bad
sleep quality. The correlation between circadian rhythm and metabolic syndrome
disorder was significantly positive (p
< 0.01). It was found that the persons who have a bad sleep quality spend
more energy than the persons who have good sleep quality (p = 0.001). Energy expenditure of the participants with metabolic syndrome disorder is higher
than without metabolic syndrome disorder
(p < 0.001) at the time of
sleeping. Conclusions.
This study confirms the positive relationship between
circadian rhythm irregularity and metabolic syndrome disorder. Also, the study
supports the idea that circadian rhythm irregularities cause an increase in
daily energy expenditure which leads further metabolic syndrome disorder.
