Brief summary

This study aims to investigate 1. whether sleep extension results in improvements of endocrine and metabolic markers of obesity and diabetes in obese teenagers, 2. the relationship between habitual sleep quality and duration and markers of obesity and diabetes in lean and obese teenagers.

Detailed description

Inclusion of 13 obese teens. Duration : 1 week of screening period + 1 week of intervention: habitual/extended sleep length + 1 week of intervention: extended/habitual sleep length. A wash out period of at least 3 months will be required between the two interventions. Inclusion of 13 non obese healthy teen controls for measuring reference sleep duration and physiology level. Duration for these group: 1 week of screening period + 1 week of habitual sleep length

Interventions

BEHAVIORALhabitual sleep length period + extended sleep length period

On obese group, realisation of an habitual sleep length period followed by an extended sleep length period

BEHAVIORALextended sleep length period + habitual sleep length period

On obese group, realisation of an extended sleep length period followed by an habitual sleep length period

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The influence of sleep extension on leptin level for the obese teens group.at the end of each sleep experimental period

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Difference between the two groups (obese vs non-obese) regarding sleep length and delta waves activity.during each sleep experimental period (habitual or extended)
Study the correlation between delta waves activity and habitual sleep lengthDuring each sleep experimental period
Study the correlation between delta waves activity and psychological, behavioural, anthropometric and physiological markers of obesity and its co morbiditiesDuring each sleep experimental period
