Rotating Night Shift Work and the Risk of Ischemic Stroke [PDF]
Rotating night shift work disrupts circadian rhythms and is associated with coronary heart disease. The relation between rotating night shift work and ischemic stroke is unclear. The Nurses' Health Study, an ongoing cohort study of registered female nurses, assessed in 1988 the total number of years the nurses had worked rotating night shifts.

Spectral analysis of sleep electroencephalography in rotation three-shift work
Fourteen male rotating three-shift workers were subjected to 24-h ambulatory polysomnographic recording in connection with morning, afternoon, and night shift work (at home and at work).

Rotating Night-Shift Work and Risk of Psoriasis in US Women [PDF]
Rotating night shift work causes chronic circadian misalignment between endogenous circadian timing system and behavioral cycles and suppresses the secretion of melatonin (James et al., 2007; Scheer et al., 2009). Melatonin has been found to regulate inflammatory response and have anti-oxidant effects (Bonnefont-Rousselot and Collin, 2010; Ochoa et al.,

Association of rotating night shift work with tooth loss and severe periodontitis among permanent employees in Japan: a cross-sectional study [PDF]
Background The modern 24/7 society demands night shift work, which is a possible risk factor for chronic diseases. This study aimed to examine the associations of rotating night shift work duration with tooth loss and severe periodontitis.

Glucose metabolism during rotational shift-work in healthcare workers [PDF]
Shift-work is associated with circadian rhythm disruption and an increased risk of obesity and type 2 diabetes. We sought to determine the effect of rotational shift-work on glucose metabolism in humans.We studied 12 otherwise healthy nurses performing rotational shift-work using a randomised crossover study design.
