Abstract
Objective:
This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of sleep disorders and their associations with sociodemographic variables and diabetes management practices among children with type-1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) in the Southern region of Saudi Arabia.
Methods:
A total of 198 children aged 6 to 18 years with a confirmed diagnosis of T1DM were recruited for the study. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and medical records.
Results:
The findings indicated a significant prevalence of sleep disorders among the participants, with insomnia, narcolepsy, restless legs syndrome, and sleep apnea affecting a considerable proportion of the population. Sleep disorders were associated with several variables, including parental education, diabetes management frequency, family history of diabetes, sleep duration, hours of physical activity per week, nighttime awakenings, caffeinated beverage consumption, and hemoglobin A1c levels.
Conclusion:
Recognizing and addressing sleep disorders in children with T1DM is important. Tailored interventions and comprehensive care strategies that consider sociodemographic factors and diabetes management practices are vital for enhancing the overall health and quality of life of these youngsters. This study underscores the multifaceted nature of the relationship between T1DM and sleep disorders and calls for further research to examine the underlying mechanisms and necessary interventions.

Key words: Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM), Children, Sleep Disorders, Prevalence, Saudi Arabia.
