The Odds of the Association Between Sleep Quality and Sugar Intake. a

Energy Intake From Added Sugars Sleep Quality Odds Ratio (95% CI) P Value
Good, n (%) Poor, n (%)
High sugar (≥10%; groups A + B) 20 (69%) 9 (31%) 3.5 (1.2, 10.4) .021
Low sugar (<10%; groups C + D) 63 (89%) 8 (11%) 1.0*

Group A: carbohydrates >60%, added sugars >10%; group B: carbohydrates <60%, added sugars >10%; group C: carbohydrates >60%, added sugars <10%; group D: carbohydrates <60% added sugars <10%. *1.0 is the notation for the reference category (low sugar group). We are investigating the risk of poor sleep if the person is taking high sugar with reference to the low sugar subjects.
