Distinct circadian mechanisms govern cardiac rhythms and susceptibility to arrhythmia

May 2, 2021
Hayter, E.A., Wehrens, S.M.T., Van Dongen, H.P.A. et al. Distinct circadian mechanisms govern cardiac rhythms and susceptibility to arrhythmia. Nat Commun 12, 2472 (2021). https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-22788-8 Abstract Electrical activity in the heart exhibits 24-hour rhythmicity, and potentially fatal arrhythmias are more likely to occur at specific times of day. Here, we demonstrate that circadian clocks within the brain and heart set...

Night-Time Shift Work and Related Stress Responses: A Study on Security Guards

January 20, 2020
Int. J. Environ. Res. Public Health 2020, 17(2), 562; https://doi.org/10.3390/ijerph17020562 Abstract Work-related stress can induce a break in homeostasis by placing demands on the body that are met by the activation of two different systems, the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis and the sympathetic nervous system. Night-shift work alters the body’s exposure to the natural light–dark schedule and disrupts circadian (daily)...
