Summary
The paper discusses the effects of mismatched official time on circadian rhythms and sleep in elderly populations in Portugal and Western Spain, finding that the discrepancy can lead to circadian disruption and potential health issues.
Categories
Sleep and insomnia: The paper investigates how mismatched official time can affect sleep patterns in elderly populations in Portugal and Western Spain.
Cognitive function and memory: The paper suggests that circadian disruption caused by mismatched official time can potentially lead to cognitive disorders.
Aging: The study focuses on elderly populations in Portugal and Western Spain, examining how mismatched official time can affect their circadian rhythms and sleep.
Shift work: The paper discusses the concept of 'social jet lag', a form of circadian disruption that can occur when there is a discrepancy between official time and geographical time zone, similar to the effects experienced by shift workers.
Phototherapy: The paper discusses the role of light exposure in synchronizing the circadian system, which is relevant to the field of phototherapy.
Hormone regulation: The paper mentions the role of the circadian system in regulating the secretion of different hormones.
