Among men, shift work was negatively associated with RMSSD (B: -7.83; 95% CI: -14.28 to -1.38), SDNN (B: -7.0; 95% CI: -12.27 to -1.78), VLF (B: -0.27; 95% CI: -0.46 to -0.09) and Total Power (B: -0.61; 95% CI: -1.20 to -0.03).

Overview

Suggests autonomic effects of shift work in men; hypothesis-generating for cardiovascular risk and needs prospective confirmation.

Structured PICO

P
Population

I
Intervention
Shift work (including night and non-night shifts)
C
Comparator
Day work
O
Outcome
Time and frequency domain parameters of heart rate variability (HRV) measured during sleepsurrogate

Shift work is associated with reduced heart rate variability during sleep in men, suggesting a potential autonomic mechanism for increased cardiovascular risk in this population.
