Effects of single‐ and double‐shift work on hand and cognitive functions in nurses
Abstract Aim This study aims to examine the influence of single and double‐shift work schedules on hand function and cognitive capacities, specifically working memory, attention, and response time in nurses. Background Shift work, particularly in extended formats, is known to affect various physical and cognitive functions critical to nursing duties ...

Conundrum and chances of diabetes management in the Western Pacific Region: A narrative review
The Western Pacific (WP) region, comprising countries with significant cultural and racial diversity, necessitates customized programs and community‐based management strategies. In this review, we present specific challenges and opportunities for diabetes management identified through a systematic review of the literature from the WP region, along with

Pituitary gonadotropin‐releasing hormone II as a possible mediator of positive estrogen feedback
Abstract It has previously been shown that rhesus macaques express two forms of gonadotropin‐releasing hormone (GNRH1 and GNRH2) in the hypothalamus and that both forms can stimulate the release of luteinizing hormone (LH) in vivo. However, while much has been published about the role of GNRH1 in reproduction, very little is known about the ...

Single‐cell genomics meets systems neuroscience: Insights from mapping the brain circuitry of stress
Abstract Responses to external and internal dangers is essential for survival and homeostatic regulation. Hypothalamic corticotropin‐releasing hormone neurons (CRHNs) play a pivotal role in regulating neuroendocrine responses to fear and stress.

Abstract Kisspeptin (KP) signaling in the brain is defined by the anatomical distribution of KP‐producing neurons, their fibers, receptors, and connectivity. Technological advances have prompted a re‐evaluation of these chemoanatomical aspects, originally studied in the early years after the discovery of KP and its receptor Kiss1r.

Abstract The hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) hosts the central circadian pacemaker and regulates daily rhythms in physiology and behavior. The SCN is composed of peptidergic neuron populations expressing arginine vasopressin (AVP) and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), as well as glial cells.

Alterations in the expression levels of D2S and D2L resulted in obesity and metabolic syndrome such as abdominal fat accumulation and hyperglycemia in D2L KO mice fed with a high‐fat diet, compared to WT mice. This may be partly due to increased food intake.

Dampened circadian amplitude of EEG power in women after menopause
Summary Postmenopausal women are at high risk of developing sleep–wake disturbances. We previously reported dampened circadian rhythms of melatonin, alertness and sleep in postmenopausal compared with young women. The present study aims to further explore electroencephalography power spectral changes in the sleep of postmenopausal women.

The impact of a 20‐h rotating watch schedule on cognitive and mood states in submarine operations
Summary This is the first study to provide valuable insights into the effects of the Israeli Navy's 20‐h rotating watch schedule on submariners’ alertness, mood states, risk‐taking behaviours, and sleep. Specifically, we assessed the impact of the non‐circadian‐aligned schedule on cognitive performance, mood, and behavioural outcomes in a highly ...
