Associations of Sleep and Shift Work With Osteoarthritis Risk

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Daily rhythms may be critical for maintaining homeostasis of joint tissues. We aimed to investigate the relationships among circadian clock disruption, sleep, and osteoarthritis (OA) risk in humans. Methods In the UK Biobank, a prospective 500,000–person cohort, we evaluated associations among sleep duration, sleeplessness/insomnia, and shift

Night myopia

open access: yesSurvey of Ophthalmology, 1984
Although the phenomenon of night myopia has been recognized for two centuries, its causes are still not fully understood. Early studies implicated spherical aberration and accommodation, but the degree to which either contributed was not clearly established. More recently, "laser speckle" techniques to measure myopia have allowed the collection of data
