Background — A growing body of research demonstrates that a substantial daily range light exposure, characterized by ample daylight followed darkness during sleep, is essential for human well-being. This encompasses crucial aspects like sleep quality, mood regulation, and cardiovascular metabolic health. Objective study characterizes Circadian Light Hygiene (CLH) as an factor in maintaining health, well-being, longevity modern society. CLH involves adjusting the 24-hour exposure dynamic to support natural sleep-wake cycle circadian rhythms. Three major challenges negatively impacting health are: 1) pollution (light at night, or LAN), excessive evening nighttime artificial light; 2) insufficient daylight; 3) irregular patterns. These interacting necessitate systematic approach measurement analysis. Material Methods review peer-reviewed literature published through October 30, 2024, examined methodologies effects seasonal exposure. Conclusion elucidates fundamental principles hygiene, synthesizing existing our assess benefits adequate daylight, risks adverse outcomes stemming from diminished range, mistimed Novel indices quantifying optimizing hygiene are introduced.

Wearable devices have gained increasing attention for use in multifunctional applications related to health monitoring, particularly research of the circadian rhythms cognitive functions and metabolic processes. In this comprehensive review, we encompass how wearables can be used study disease. We highlight importance these as markers well-being potential predictors outcomes. focus on wearable technologies sleep research, medicine, chronomedicine beyond domain emphasize actigraphy a validated tool monitoring sleep, activity, light exposure. discuss various mathematical methods currently analyze actigraphic data, such parametric non-parametric approaches, linear, non-linear, neural network-based applied quantify non-circadian variability. also introduce novel actigraphy-derived markers, which personalized proxies status, assisting discriminating between disease, offering insights into neurobehavioral status. lifestyle factors physical activity exposure modulate brain health. establishing reference standards measures further refine data interpretation improve clinical The review calls existing tools methods, deepen our understanding health, develop healthcare strategies.

Nuclear receptor subfamily 1 group D member (NR1D1 or REV-ERBα) is a crucial element of the circadian clock’s transcriptional and translational feedback loop. Understanding its expression in humans critical for elucidating role rhythms metabolic processes, finding potential links to various pathologies. In longitudinal survey, we examined REV-ERBα at 08:00 using real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) blood mononuclear cells from Arctic native non-native residents during equinoxes solstices. exhibited pronounced seasonality, peaking summer solstice, reaching nadir winter solstice both natives non-natives, with relatively higher peak natives. After adjusting age, sex, body mass index, amount timing light exposure, physical activity, indigeneity emerged as significant predictors expression.
