Night-shift work, which impairs circadian rhythms, is an example of such a complex occupational exposure and may increase the risks of breast, prostate, and colorectal cancer. So far, for logistical reasons, investigators in cohort studies have assessed shift work rather crudely, lacking information...
For every 5 years of night shift work, the cancer risk increased by 3.2% (OR = 1.032, 95% CI = 1.013–1.051). Conclusion. This is the first meta-analysis identifying the positive association between night shift work and the risk of cancer and verifying that there is no sex difference ...
For example, those exposed to the highest intensity vs the lowest intensity of outdoor ALAN in the visible spectrum were more likely to be control persons than cancer patients, particularly prostate cancer patients. Men who slept in "quite illuminated" bedrooms were at higher risk for prostate ca...
As one example of inherent lacunae, exposure details such as the frequency and timing of night shifts may not be appropriately considered. Yet, such information could be the key to exonerate or otherwise describe biologically plausible (1, 3) cancer risks from different facets of shift work. ...
Night-shift workers exposed to higher levels of LAN were found to be at higher risks of disrupted circadian rhythms and CHD [9, 10]. Another meta-analysis summarised that a higher LAN exposure was consistently associated with 13% and 22% higher odds of being overweight and obese, respectively...
Nurses deserve fair rates for night shift: the night duty penalty rate for NSW nurses is the lowest in Australia. There has been no rise since 1975. The NS...被引量: 0发表: 2008年 Characteristics of the Million Women Study participants who have and have not worked at night Objectives ...
Since the International Agency for Research on Cancer classified shift work that involves circadian disruption as “probably carcinogenic to humans,” there has been growing concern on the relationship between night work and breast cancer. In Korea, abou
Forest plot describing the association between night shift work and risk of BC. 3.4 The duration of night shift work Twenty-three out of the selected 33 studies discovered the relationship between the length of night shift work and the incidence of BC. In this study, the length of night shif...
Even if the findings suggest that previous night shift work is a risk factor for dementia, they do not demonstrate that it is a causal risk factor; numerous other individual and exposure factors associated with night shift work may be equally or more important....
Likewise, after adjustment for history of night shift work in the 10 years before recruitment, we found no association between bedroom LAN and risk of breast cancer. Studies have shown that intermittent nocturnal light exposure of sufficient intensity lowers melatonin levels (Bojkowski et al, 1987;...
