This paper presents literature review on effects clock change DST electricity usage, health, crime rates, road safety, economic aspects. addresses gap current reviews, as there lack linked analyses considering these research fields. We show that are partial positive rates safety generally result from delay ambient light availability. contrasts with clearly negative health aspects, which mainly driven by disturbed circadian rhythm resulting sleep problems. Furthermore, we find initial idea to save will probably no longer apply may even lead increased usage. provides basis for future promotes interdisciplinary summarizing findings cross-disciplinary manner identifying gaps opportunities. guide policy-making discussions decisions.

Association between daily sitting time and sarcopenia in the US population: a cross-sectional study

Archives of Public Health, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 83(1)

Published: Jan. 10, 2025

Sarcopenia is an age-related syndrome marked by a gradual decline in skeletal muscle mass and function. While various factors influencing sarcopenia have been studied, the link between daily sedentary time remains underexplored. This study analyzed association sitting using data from National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES 2011–2018). Daily was assessed through questionnaires, while measured body index (BMI) adjusted appendicular (ASM). The relationship weighted logistic regression models smoothing curves. Stratified analyses interaction testing were employed to investigate population-specific characteristics of this association. Furthermore, chi-square test grouped used further analyze impact vigorous activity on two variables. included 9998 participants with complete information. fully model showed significant positive correlation prevalence (OR = 1.07, 95% CI: 1.03–1.10, P 0.0026). group ≥ 9 h had 90% higher risk compared < 4 1.90, 1.22–2.84, 0.0040). Smooth curve fitting analysis linear relationship. shows that non-Hispanic white men lower BMI (BMI 25) sarcopenia. Compared those who actively participate activities, individuals lack recreational activities Our research has found increased significantly increases sarcopenia, especially among BMI. Additionally, physical also Therefore, reducing behavior increasing moderate exercise may be effective prevention strategies.

Sedentary work and expanding waistlines: a cross-sectional study on occupational roles and abdominal obesity in India

BMC Public Health, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 25(1)

Published: Feb. 24, 2025

Low- and middle-income countries are undergoing epidemiological demographic transitions alongside economic growth, contributing to a rise in abdominal obesity. In India, the increase sedentary occupations insufficient physical activity key drivers of this growing health concern. This study investigates relationship between occupational types obesity markers well-characterised adults, accounting for wide range confounders. Using nationally representative sample 99,653 women 91,990 men, were categorised into work (SW), non-sedentary (NSW), not working (NW). Two outcomes assessed: obesity, measured via waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) using WHO cutoffs, higher-risk threshold WHR ≥ 1. Bivariate analyses multivariable logistic regression, adjusted socioeconomic factors, conducted evaluate risk by occupation type. Among women, prevalence based on criteria was 56% (95% CI: 55.60–56.46), highest NW (57.3%; 95% 56.80–57.83), followed SW (57.1%; 55.39–58.78) NSW (51.5%; 50.63–52.43). 48.9% 48.31–49.46), (57.8%; 56.51–59.14), (49.9%; 49.15–50.63) (37.3%; 36.14–38.43). Adjusted odds significantly higher compared (women: aOR 1.08, 1.02–1.14; men: 1.20, 1.16–1.25). High among both men implies an emerging India. The findings that contributed associations may inform occupation-related risks development interventions limit daily sitting at place which reduce metabolic disease risk.
