Associations of rotational shift work and night shift status with hypertension

Journal of Hypertension, 2017
The reported risks of hypertension (HTN) in rotating shift and night shift workers are controversial. The objective of this meta-analysis was to assess the association between shift work status and HTN.A literature search was performed using MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane Database from inception through October 2016. Studies that reported odds ratios (OR)

Anti‐clockwise rotating shift work and health: Would you prefer 3‐shift or 4‐shift operation?

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, 2013
AbstractBackgroundWe explored the association between work schedules involving nightshifts and selected measures of health and whether these associations differed among those working in either 3‐ or 4‐shift cycles.MethodsEmployees at a German industrial company who worked on a fixed daytime schedule or on one involving nightshifts were invited to ...

A Reliability and Validity Study of the Bergen Shift Work Sleep Questionnaire in Nurses Working Three-Shift Rotations

Chronobiology International, 2012
The "Bergen Shift Work Sleep Questionnaire" (BSWSQ) was developed to systematically assess discrete sleep problems related to different work shifts (day, evening, night shifts) and rest days. In this study, we assessed the psychometric properties of the BSWSQ using a sample of 760 nurses, all working in a three-shift rotation schedule: day, evening ...

Sleep and Alertness in a 12-Hour Rotating Shift Work Environment

Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 1994
Industrial workers on rotating shifts were evaluated for the effects of rotating shift work. Twenty-five (86%) of 29 workers in the study area who work 12-hour shifts in a scheduled 16-day rotation participated. The mean number of hours of sleep at home after working day shifts (5.6 hours) was less than after the first three night shifts (6.0, 6.4, and

Circadian principles and design of rotating shift work schedules

American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 1986
Circadian rhythms may be disrupted when shift workers rotate from one work schedule to another. It has been suggested that in order to minimize the time needed to readjust circadian rhythms to a new work schedule the work time of shift workers should be rotated in a delaying rather than an advancing direction.

Personality and Individual Differences, 1999
Abstract This study examined psychological correlates of nightwork on different television workers. Three hundred and twelve participants working nightshifts or dayshifts completed a questionnaire to measure psychological well-being, self-esteem, job satisfaction, locus of control and adjustment to night-work.

Nurses who work rotating shifts consume more energy, macronutrients and calcium when they work the night shift versus day shift

Chronobiology International, 2018
Shift work has been associated with increased body mass index (BMI), metabolic disruption and increased chronic disease risk. Typically, these reports compare individuals who work the day shift to those who work the night shift. Because shift assignment is not random, differences may reflect other, unmeasured characteristics that account for outcome ...

[The fitness for shift work of operators working according to schedules with a rapid shift rotation].

Gigiena truda i professional'nye zabolevaniia, 1992
Integral parameter of professional capacity for work in day and night shifts were studied in 52 operators of heat electric power stations and compared with the results of sociopsychologic questioning. 19% of the operators having higher work capacity in the night shift than in the day one (according to integral parameter) were characterized by lower ...
