To determine the relationship between sleep disturbances and fatigue in women with fibromyalgia (FM) and those with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and to assess whether any differences existed between the two groups.
Descriptive comparative.
Community program on chronic fatigue syndrome and related disorders.
Sixty-three women who attended the program; 13 had CFS, and 50 had FM.
A moderately strong relationship between fatigue and sleepiness was found (r = .63, p < .01). Trouble staying asleep was the highest rated sleep disturbance, and fatigue was the most common subjective feeling reported. Women with CFS reported significantly more trouble staying asleep than women with FM, t(61) = 1.81, p < .03.
Data from this study support that women with FM and CFS encounter problems sleeping. Clinicians are encouraged to assess women with FM and CFS for their quality of sleep rather than amount of sleep. Researchers are encouraged to continue study of sleep disturbances in women with FM and CFS to improve understanding of the disturbances and to test the effectiveness of sleep interventions.
确定纤维肌痛（FM）女性和慢性疲劳综合征（CFS）女性睡眠障碍与疲劳之间的关系，并评估两组之间是否存在差异。
描述性比较研究。
慢性疲劳综合征及相关疾病社区项目。
参加该项目的63名女性；13名患有CFS，50名患有FM。
发现疲劳与嗜睡之间存在中度强相关（r = 0.63，p < 0.01）。入睡困难是评分最高的睡眠障碍，疲劳是最常见的主观感受。CFS女性比FM女性报告的入睡困难明显更多，t（61）= 1.81，p < 0.03。
本研究数据支持FM和CFS女性存在睡眠问题。鼓励临床医生评估FM和CFS女性的睡眠质量而非睡眠时间。鼓励研究人员继续研究FM和CFS女性的睡眠障碍，以增进对这些障碍的理解并测试睡眠干预措施的有效性。
