Circadian rhythms–from genes to physiology and disease
Summary:
This paper discusses the circadian rhythms in the human body, how they are regulated, and their impact on various physiological processes and potential diseases.
Categories
- Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses how circadian rhythms regulate cerebral activity, which is directly related to cognitive function and memory.
- Sleep and insomnia: The paper discusses the regulation of sleep-wake cycles by circadian rhythms, which is directly relevant to sleep and insomnia.
- Heart disease: The paper discusses how circadian rhythms regulate heart rate and blood pressure, which are directly related to heart disease.
- Hormone regulation: The paper discusses how circadian rhythms regulate hormone and cytokine secretion, which is directly related to hormone regulation.
- Shift work: The paper discusses the impact of shift work on circadian rhythms and the potential health consequences.
- Jet lag: The paper discusses the impact of jet lag on circadian rhythms and the potential health consequences.
- Lighting Design Considerations: The paper discusses how light signals perceived by the retina can reset the phase of circadian rhythms, which is directly relevant to lighting design considerations.
