Description
Jerson Mekoulou Ndongo and a large team surveyed university students in Douala, Cameroon, in 2026 on poor sleep and its links with eating disorders, body makeup, and activity. Standard questionnaires measured sleep quality, eating risk, and activity, while body mass index, waist size, and body composition were measured directly in 522 students.
Poor sleep affected 73.7 percent of students and eating disorder risk 35.6 percent of the group, with women at 61.7 percent of participants and higher eating risk. Poor sleep tied to activity level, eating risk, body mass, fat mass, and body water, with patterns differing between men and women in adjusted models.
