Women Working At Night Often Suffer From Diabetes.
Women who often fashion at vespers may face higher odds of developing type 2 diabetes, a renewed study suggests. The study, which focused only on women, found that the effect got stronger as the number of years done for in shift work rose, and remained even after researchers accounted for obesity. "Our results suggest that women have a modestly increased endanger of type 2 diabetes mellitus after extended space of shift work, and this association appears to be largely mediated through BMI weight," concluded a duo led by An Pan, a researcher in nutrition at the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston.

His tandem was slated to present its findings Sunday in San Diego at the annual meeting of the American Diabetes Association. Prior studies have suggested that working nights disrupts circadian (day/night) rhythms, and such beget has hunger been associated with obesity, the cluster of cardiovascular risk factors known as the "metabolic syndrome," and dysregulation of blood sugar.
