TL;DR
Data support an association between short sleep duration and higher BMI in this rural population, which is consistent with the relationship found in other settings.

2,435 Citations2004Karine Spiegel, Esra Tasali +2 more
In this study, 12 young, healthy, normal-weight men exhibited reductions in the satiety hormone leptin, increases in the hunger hormone ghrelin, and increases in hunger after 2 nights of only 4 hours of sleep compared with after two nights of 10 hours ofSleep, suggesting inadequate sleep seems to influence the hormones that regulate satiety and hunger.

The authors indicate that the CAGE questionnaire is not a sensitive alcoholism detector if a four-item positive response is the criterion; however, if a two- or three-item criterion is used, it becomes a viable rapid alcoholism screening techniquefor large groups.

1,609 Citations2002Daniel F. Kripke, Lawrence Garfinkel +3 more
Patients can be reassured that short sleep and insomnia seem associated with little risk distinct from comorbidities, and Slight risks associated with 8 or more hours of sleep and sleeping pill use need further study.

SLEEPInadequate Sleep as a Risk Factor for Obesity: Analyses of the NHANES I
906 Citations2005James E. Gangwisch, Dolores Malaspina +2 more
The hypothesis that sleep duration is associated with obesity in a large longitudinally monitored United States sample supports earlier experimental sleep studies and provides a basis for future studies on weight control interventions that increase the quantity and quality of sleep.

890 Citations2003Najib Ayas, David P. White +6 more
The data suggest that the association between a reduced self-reported sleep duration and diabetes diagnosis could be due to confounding by BMI, or sleep restriction may mediate its effects on diabetes through weight gain.

767 Citations2004David Hartley
The chartbook shows a pattern of risky health behaviors among rural populations that suggest a "rural culture" health determinant and suggests that there may be environmental and cultural factors unique to towns, regions, or United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) economic types that affect health behavior and health.

336 Citations2000Jack A. Yanovski, Susan Z. Yanovski +4 more
The average holiday weight gain is less than commonly asserted, and the net 0.48-kg weight gain in the fall and winter probably contributes to the increase in body weight that frequently occurs during adulthood.

The results show that parental overweight and birth overweight are closely related to the child's obesity at five years of age (estimated relative risks 3.1 and 2.4 respectively) and that the relationship between obesity and short sleep duration persists independently of television viewing.
