Field study reveals night shift work alters glycemic profiles in female hospital employees, suggesting health implications.
Introduction: Around-the-clock work schedules disrupt the natural circadian rhythms resulting in circadian misalignment and increases risks for metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. Yet, it remains to be settled, how night shift work affects glycemic profiles in real-world settings. We hypothesized that working during the night impairs glucose profiles among female hospital employees compared with working during the day.
