GLU24/7 study: cardiometabolic risk factors in night‑shift workers (protocol)
Summary
Will track continuous glucose, sleep, timing of food intake, and cardiometabolic markers across consecutive night shifts and recovery days in an industrial cohort.
Why It Matters For Night Shift Workers and Night Owls
A registered protocol will examine how timing of light, sleep, meals, and schedules will test blood sugar and sleep & alertness for night‑shift workers and night owls. Either way, the results would show whether timing choices explain more of night‑week physiology than currently assumed. For the audience living on night schedules, the key meaning is that the schedule’s timing choices show up in measurable outcomes.
