This cross-sectional study was conducted to describe the physical activity and sleep in 290 community-dwelling Chinese older adults and to examine the association between physical activity and poor sleep outcomes. Almost half of the samples were poor sleepers. The majority of the samples regularly participated in walking, some household activity, and light sports, yet only a small portion were involved in work-related activity or in strenuous sports. A greater level of overall physical activity (odds ratio = 0.79; 95% confidence interval = [0.73, 0.86]), leisure-time exercise (odds ratio = 0.77; 95% confidence interval = [0.68, 0.85]), and household activity (odds ratio = 0.66; 95% confidence interval = [0.56, 0.78]) were associated with reduced likelihood of being poor sleepers and other poor sleep outcomes, independent of covariates including age, sex, education, family income, the number of children, drinking, and sleep hygiene. Future larger-scale studies that incorporate both objective and subjective measures are needed to further examine the association and to explore the effects of different types of activity on sleep and other well-beings in older adults.
本横断面研究旨在描述290名居住在社区的中国老年人的身体活动和睡眠情况，并探讨身体活动与睡眠质量差之间的关联。几乎一半的样本睡眠质量差。大多数样本经常进行散步、一些家务活动和轻度运动，但只有一小部分参与与工作相关的活动或剧烈运动。更高水平的总体身体活动（优势比=0.79；95%置信区间=[0.73, 0.86]）、休闲时间锻炼（优势比=0.77；95%置信区间=[0.68, 0.85]）和家务活动（优势比=0.66；95%置信区间=[0.56, 0.78]）与睡眠质量差及其他睡眠质量差的结果的可能性降低相关，独立于年龄、性别、教育程度、家庭收入、子女数量、饮酒和睡眠卫生等协变量。未来需要纳入客观和主观测量的更大规模研究，以进一步检查这种关联，并探索不同类型活动对老年人睡眠和其他健康状况的影响。
