Summary

The specific aim of this observational study is to characterize changes in bone turnover makers (BTMs), bone mineral density (BMD), and bone microarchitecture in a cohort of nurses during their first year of night compared to day shift work. The hypothesis is that night shift nurses will have poorer bone health indices at one year compared to day shift nurses.
