The relationship between the intake of branched-chain and aromatic amino acids and individuals' sleep quality based on body mass index, gender, and age

Table 2 Comparing the sleep quality, sleep duration, and physical activity among the participants based on age

Variables	Over 30 years old (N = 54)	Under 30 years old (N = 118)	P value
Sleep duration (h)	6.89 ± 1.37	6.98 ± 1.47	0.691
The score of sleep quality	9.13 ± 7.43	11.95 ± 11.52	0.101
Chalder physical fatigue scale	13.66 ± 6.23	14.64 ± 5.84	0.324
Chalder mental fatigue scale	8.28 ± 3.55	8.92 ± 3.44	0.265
Physical activity (MET-min/wk)	1619.26 ± 702.65	2069.18 ± 1068.70	0.005

Quantitative variables were reported as mean ± SD
P values resulted from the analysis of independent t test for continuous variables
P value < 0.05 was considered significant. Bold values are significant
