Altered postprandial hormone and metabolic responses in a simulated shift work environment
Open accessAbstract
The circadian rhythms of most night shift workers do not adapt fully to the imposed behavioural schedule, and this factor is considered to be responsible for many of the reported health problems. One way in which such disturbances might be mediated is through inappropriate hormonal and metabolic responses to meals, on the night shift. Twelve healthy subjects (four males and eight females) were studied on three occasions at the same clock time (1330 h), but at different body clock times, after consuming test meals, first in their normal environment, secondly after a forced 9 h phase advance (body clock time approximately 2230 h) and then again 2 days later in the normal environment. They were given a low-fat pre-meal at 0800 h, then a test meal at 1330 h with blood sampling for the following 9 h. Parameters measured included plasma glucose, non-esterified fatty acids (NEFAs), triacylglycerol (TAG), insulin, C-peptide, proinsulin and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide, and urinary 6-sulphatoxymelatonin. In contrast with a previous study with a high-fat pre-meal, postprandial glucose and insulin responses were not affected by the phase shift. However, basal plasma NEFAs were lower immediately after the phase shift (P < 0.05). Incremental (difference from basal) TAG responses were significantly higher (P < 0.05) immediately after the phase shift compared with before. Two-day post-phase shift responses showed partial reversion to baseline values. This study suggests that it takes at least 2 days to adapt to eating meals on a simulated night shift, and that the nutritional content of the pre-meals consumed can have a marked effect on postprandial responses during a simulated phase shift. Such findings may provide a partial explanation for the increased occurrence of cardiovascular disease reported in shift workers.

In the citing paper
“A 9-h phase advance of the circadian timing system—a simulation of shift work—increased the glucose and insulin response to a test meal given at the same clock time when the test meal was preceded by a high-fat but not low-fat meal (Hampton et al., 1996; Ribeiro et al., 1998).”

In the citing paper
“Moreover, a 9-h phase advance only had a detrimental effect on the average triglyceride response to a test meal when the pretest meal is a low- rather than high-fat meal (Hampton et al., 1996; Ribeiro et al., 1998).”

In the citing paper
“The glucose and insulin, but not triglyceride, postprandial responses normalize 2 days after ceasing night work, indicating that some—but not all—of the adverse metabolic and hormonal effects of night work quickly subside after short-term exposure (Lund et al., 2001; Ribeiro et al., 1998).”

“Insulin sensitivity is known to be lower during the night than in the day (Van Cauter et al. 1992, Lee et al. 1992, Owens et al. 1996), so it might be expected that it would take a greater amount of insulin to cope with the same amount of glucose when the body clock time was 2130 h (i.e.…”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
