POOR SLEEP QUALITY, HIGH BODY MASS INDEX AND FEMALE GENDER MAY AFFECT WEIGHT GAIN IN THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC: A CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY COVID-19 Pandemisinde Kötü Uyku Kalitesi, Yüksek Beden Kütle İndeksi ve Kadın Olmak Vücut Ağırlığı Artışında Etkili Olabilir: Kesitsel Bir Çalışma

Abstract

ABSTRACT
Objective: The aim of the study was to understand the effects of demographic factors, changes in food consumption,
sleep patterns, and physical activities on body weight in individuals restricted by social isolation
during the COVID-19 pandemic in Türkiye.
Material and Methods: A total of 699 healthy adults under partial quarantine conditions in Türkiye participated
in the study. This cross-sectional study inquired about the sociodemographic characteristics and
anthropometric measurements of the individuals during the pandemic, as well as changes in their dietary
habits and physical activities compared to the pre-pandemic period. Participants’ sleep quality was measured
using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index.
Results: It was found that food consumption increased in 53.8% of the participants (n=376), physical activity
decreased in 77.1% (n=539), and body weight increased in 44.5% (n=311). Logistic regression analysis
for individuals with increased body weight indicated that poor sleep quality was associated with weight
gain (OR=1.469, 95% CI=[1.012-2.133]; P<0.05), as was female gender (OR=2.376, 95% CI=[1.486-3.800];
P<0.001). Similarly, being overweight or obese was related to an increased risk of weight gain (OR=2.413,
95% CI=[1.514-3.847]; P<0.001) and (OR=2.545, 95% CI=[1.311-4.938]; P=0.006), respectively.
Conclusion: Changes in dietary habits, sleep patterns, and physical activities during the social isolation period
due to the COVID-19 pandemic were found to significantly affect body weight. There is a need for
large-scale, randomized studies to explore the interaction between lifestyle changes, sleep quality, dietary
habits, and obesity during pandemic periods.
