Abstract

The prevalence of obesity in children and adolescents in the world has continouosly increased. Some adolescents who lack night sleep tend to consume less plain water and more sweet beverages. Therefore, it will increase energy intake and decrease energy expenditure. This study aimed to analyze the association between sleep duration and consumption of plain water and sweet beverage and obesity risk in adolescents. A total of 248 adolescents who aged 15-18 years old from six senior high schools in Surakarta city participated in this observational analytic study. Data of sleep duration were collected using questionairre and data of plain water and sweet beverage consumption were obtained using 24 hours food recall for 3 alternating days. Body mass index (BMI) for age in percentile was used to determine obesity. Data analysis used chi-square, fisher’s exact and multiple logistic regression tests with the significance level <0.05. The prevalence of obesity in adolescents was 25%. Shorter sleep duration and inadequate plain water consumption were observed in 87.9% and 94.8% of adolescents respectively. Whiles 50.4% adolescents consumed highly sweet beverages. Short sleep duration and inadequate plain water consumption did not increase risk of obesity in adolescents. However, high consumption of sweet beverages increased 1.62 times risk of obesity in adolescents (95%CI=0.88??"2.96) but not statistically significance (p=0.118). Higher consumption of sweet beverages can increase risk of obesity in adolescents in Surakarta city.
