Abstract: 

Objective: To analyze an association between sleep disorders and musculoskeletal pain in adolescents. Data source: This systematic review was conducted according to the information collected in the Pubmed, Scopus and Cochrane Library databases, following the PRISMA guidelines. We included articles involving a population of adolescents between 10 and 19 years old, addressing subjects of sleep and skeletal muscle disorders, published until September / 2019 in English. There were no restrictions in the period of publication. Summary of the data: Among the 13 articles included in this research, 10 were associated with sleep disorders intensity and frequency of musculoskeletal pain. Only 1 article found a co-occurrence between sleep and headache problems for less than once a week and 2 without any association.

Moreover, the authors report that this may compromise some aspects of sleep quality, with a two-way street between the variables.
