BMC Public Health

Table 5 Odds ratio for metabolic syndrome based on sleeping time

Average sleep duration/day	Unadjusted model	Intermediate model	Fully adjusted model
<7 hours	0.52(0.16-1.71)	0.52 (0.16-1.17)	0.52 (0.16-1.76)
7-9 hours	0.38(0.15-0.93)*	0.38 (0.16-0.95)*	0.38 (0.15-0.94)*
>9 hours	1.00	1.00	1.00

*p value <0.05
Unadjusted model consist of bivariate relation between sleeping duration measured with metabolic syndrome. Intermediate model consist of relation between sleeping duration with metabolic syndrome after controlling for screen time (TV time during weekdays. Fully adjusted model consist of relation between sleeping duration with metabolic syndrome after controlling screen time (TV time during weekdays) and physical activity (based on PAQc).
