Synthesizes associations between night‑shift work and six cardiovascular biomarkers across studies.
A systematic review how timing of light, sleep, meals, and schedules maps findings showing sleep, alertness, recovery, and metabolic markers for night‑shift workers and night owls. Overall, the data make the schedule itself visible in physiology, not just in how people feel subjectively. For the audience living on night schedules, the key meaning is that the schedule’s timing choices show up in measurable outcomes.
