| Beschreibung: | In humans, night shift work is a major reason for chronodisruption, may affect health and increase the risk of a metabolic syndrome, but results obtained so far are ambiguous. In this population-based, cross-sectional study, PRESENT and FORMER shift workers were compared to age- and sex-matched controls, who never worked in shift with regard to body mass index, waist-hip-ratio total, high-density lipoprotein and low-density lipoprotein, cholesterol and C-reactive protein. Moreover, association with sex, length of shift work and medication were investigated. The present results do not support the hypothesis that night shift work per se is associated to an increased risk of metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular and immune malfunctions: no differences were found in mean anthropomteric and blood values between present or former shift workers and respective matched controls. When analyzing the proportion of participants showing values beyond the clinically relevant cut-offs, no general effect of shift work was observed, but the data may suggest an interaction between shift work and sex. These divergent results may be due to differences in the socio-economic status, the health care system and the shift schedule. All these parameters need to be considered in future studies addressing the impact of night shiftwork on human health. | |||||||
