Objective: To investigate the association between sleep problems and overweight or obesity among third-grade primary school students in Shanghai, China. Methods: A total of 3,640 students aged 8-10 years were recruited in 2023 using a random cluster sampling method. Sleep problems were assessed using the Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ). Anthropometric measurements, including weight, height, and waist circumference, were collected to calculate body mass index (BMI) and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR). Results: < 0.05). In logistic regression models, Sleep Disordered Breathing was significantly associated with higher odds of both overweight/obesity (OR = 1.39, 95% CI: 1.13-1.70), and central obesity (OR = 1.36, 95% CI: 1.11-1.68). These associations were more evident among boys. Conclusion: Different dimensions of sleep problems showed varying associations with overweight/obesity and central obesity in children, with stronger associations observed among boys
