Cardiometabolic Risk of Shiftwork

NCT01264913 · Status: TERMINATED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 64

Last updated 2016-10-03

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The overall goal of the present application is to test the hypothesis that shift workers, who are chronically exposed to circadian misalignment and sleep loss, have a higher cardio-metabolic risk than day workers, and that the accumulated sleep debt and the degree of circadian misalignment both predict their elevated cardio-metabolic risk.

Conditions

  • Sleep Deprivation
  • Circadian Dysregulation
  • Shift-Work Sleep Disorder

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

sleep extension & circadian alignment

Both groups of workers will undergo a 1-week period of fixed bedtimes, light-dark cycles and mealtimes in the laboratory to pay the sleep debt and align the circadian system
