Salivary and hair glucocorticoids and sleep in very preterm children during school age

Highlights • We examined HPA axis activity and sleep in school-aged children born very preterm. • Very preterm children show lower morning cortisol levels and less cortisone in hair. • Very preterm children show earlier sleep onset time. • Lower morning cortisol secretion is related to earlier sleep...

Description
Summary:Highlights • We examined HPA axis activity and sleep in school-aged children born very preterm. • Very preterm children show lower morning cortisol levels and less cortisone in hair. • Very preterm children show earlier sleep onset time. • Lower morning cortisol secretion is related to earlier sleep onset. • Lower morning cortisol secretion is related to longer sleep duration.
