The results show that PCOS is positively associated with the risk of Sleep disturbances. Comparing with the \u201cPCOS group\u201d (experimental group) with the \u201cNON-PCOS group\u201d (control group), the incidence of Sleep disturbances is higher (OR = 11.24, 95% CI: 2.00\u201363.10, Z = 2.75, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.006); the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scores of the PCOS group is higher than that of the NON-PCOS group (MD = 0.78, 95% CI: 0.32\u20131.25, Z = 3.30, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.001); the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) scores of the PCOS group is higher than that of the NON-PCOS group (MD = 2.49, 95% CI: 0.80\u20134.18, Z = 2.88, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.004); Apnea hypopnea index (AHIs) in the PCOS group are higher than those in the NON-PCOS group (MD = 2.68, 95% CI: 1.07\u20134.28, Z = 3.27, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.001); the sleep efficiency of the PCOS group is lower than that of the NON-PCOS group (MD = -5.16, 95% CI: 9.39\u2013-0.93, Z = 2.39, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.02); the sleep onset latency of the PCOS group is higher than that of the NON-PCOS group (MD = 2.45, 95% CI: 1.40\u20133.50, Z = 4.57, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &amp;lt; 0.001); and the Rapid Eyes Movement (REM) sleep in the PCOS group is higher than that in the NON-PCOS group (MD = 17.19, 95% CI: 11.62\u201355.76, Z = 6.05, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &amp;lt; 0.001).
