Shift Work and Metabolic Syndrome Updates: A Systematic Review

open access: yesSleep Science, 2023
Shift work can cause circadian cycles disturbances and misaligns the endogenous rhythms. The physiological variables are driven by the circadian system and, its misalignment, can impair the metabolic functions.

Using plant circadian programs to optimize agrochemical use

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Agrochemicals play an important role in maximizing agricultural yields. One class of agrochemicals is herbicides, which are used for weed control and to kill the top growth of certain crops before harvest. We examine the influence of plant circadian regulation on herbicide effectiveness to exemplify how knowledge of the circadian clock could be

Sleep–wake rhythm and its association with lifestyle, health-related quality of life and academic performance among Japanese nursing students: a cross-sectional study

open access: yesBMC Nursing, 2021
Background Young adults are likely to have activities and go to bed late at night due to their age-dependent delayed endogenous circadian clock. The purpose of the present study was to clarify sleep–wake rhythm and its association with lifestyle, health ...

Acute intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia augments left ventricular contractility

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Twenty‐four healthy adults were studied to determine the effects of an acute session of 40 min of intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia on cardiac performance. Cardiac function was assessed via echocardiography at rest and during graded stages of lower‐body negative pressure before and after the intervention to quantify load ...

Daily rhythm in DNA methylation and the effect of total sleep deprivation

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 4, August 2025.
Summary Numerous hormones and genes exhibit diurnal 24‐hr rhythms that can also be affected by sleep deprivation. Here we studied diurnal rhythms in DNA methylation under a 24‐hr sleep/wake cycle and a subsequent 29 hr of continual wakefulness (1 night of sleep deprivation).

Chronobiological Aspects of Mood Disorders

open access: yes, 2012
Mood disorders, especially those related to depression, are among the most prevalent mental impairments. Therefore, understanding their etiology is important for prevention and improving therapy. Sub-clinical depressive symptoms, which predict the onset of mood and anxiety disorders (Gentil et al., 2007), are correlated with slow information processing,

Integrated multi-omics analysis reveals the molecular interplay between circadian clocks and cancer pathogenesis

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Circadian rhythms (CRs) are fundamental biological processes that significantly impact human well-being. Disruption of these rhythms can trigger insufficient neurocognitive development, insomnia, mental disorders, cardiovascular diseases, metabolic ...

The CIRCORT database: Reference ranges and seasonal changes in diurnal salivary cortisol derived from a meta-dataset comprised of 15 field studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Diurnal salivary cortisol profiles are valuable indicators of adrenocortical functioning in epidemiological research and clinical practice. However, normative reference values derived from a large number of participants and across a wide age range are ...

Multi‐Wearable Approach for Monitoring Diurnal Light Exposure and Body Rhythms in Nightshift Workers

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 241, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim As our understanding of light's impact on human health grows, studies examining light exposure and related health outcomes in everyday settings are increasingly important, particularly in high‐risk groups like nightshift workers. Methods In this observational study, we monitored personal light exposure and physiological functions in a ...

Genetic basis of human circadian rhythm disorders. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Circadian rhythm disorders constitute a group of phenotypes that usually present as altered sleep-wake schedules. Until a human genetics approach was applied to investigate these traits, the genetic components regulating human circadian rhythm and sleep ...
