DESYNCHRONIZATION OF HUMAN CIRCADIAN RHYTHMS
Open accessAbstract
Fifty human sub jects have been kept in an underground bunker in conditions of continuous illumination, each in complete isolation and without any time-telling device. Rectal temperature was recorded continuously by means of an electric thermometer, and urine samples, collected in intervals of the subjects own choice, were analyzed for excretion of water, sodium, calcium and potassium. Several systems of electric contacts served to survey the subjects general activities. All subjects showed free-running circadian rhythms, the average periods of wakefulness and sleep ranging from 23.9 to 50.0 hours. 36 subjects remained internally synchronized during the whole experiment. In 5 cases, the rhythm of activity and the rhythms of vegetative functions were synchronized in a 1: 2-ratio for parts of the experiment. 9 subjects showed different circadian frequencies in activity and in body temperature; in two of these subjects, desynchronization started immediately after being enclosed in the bunker, in the remaining 7 subjects after 9 to 23 days of confinement.

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.
