    abstract = "The impact of lockdown on life style and behaviour have piqued the
interest of people and scientific community, all over the world. It has
been demonstrated that in some countries, mandatory stay-at-home
limitations and self-isolation measures are linked to an increase in
sleeping hours and smoking cigarettes per day. However, these results
derive from countries that lockdown had different features and length,
and it is possible that society, culture, customs, ecological or other
factors may independently or in combination affect life style habits
(such sleeping and smoking) in different populations. So, we focus on
sleeping and smoking changes in Greek adults during the lockdown of
early COVID-19 presence in Greece. Therefore, our aim was to investigate
whether lockdown alters smoking and sleeping habits and whether physical
activity (PA), gender, age or body mass index (BMI) play a role. The
modified online-based Active-Q (Greek version) questionnaire (see
Supplementary file 1_Active-Q_modyfied) was used to collect data prior
to the COVID-19 pandemic (PRE condition) and during physical distancing
and lockdown measures (POST condition). The data period collection was
from April 4 to April 19, 2020 (15 days in total) and respondents
classified into four PA categories based on their sporting activities
(PRE condition), five age categories and four BMI categories, which
corresponding to different subgroup. Overall, sleeping hours change
(from PRE to POST condition) was 11.80% and smoking cigarettes per day
change was 9.35%. However, it appears that between the different
subgroups significant differences were also identified. (C) 2021 The
