This study investigated the effects of chronostructure disruptions on circadian blood pressure (BP) rhythms and their association with echocardiographic parameters in men arterial hypertension (AH) who contracted COVID-19 while engaged rotating shift work Arctic. Methods – A random sample 166 was selected from medical records database patients treated at hospital Medical Unit Gazprom Dobycha Yamburg LLC (Nadymsky District, Russia, 68° 21’ 40” N) between June 2020 March 2021. Randomization achieved using a number method. These underwent echocardiography (ECHO) 24-hour ambulatory monitoring (ABPM) before pandemic (November 2019 to 2020) again The group then divided into those had (n=94) not (n=72).

A weekly actigraphy was conducted within a single month in 122 young adults, who were categorized into two groups: COVID(-): individuals without SARS-CoV-2 infection, n = 43; COVID(+), 79: with confirmed infection. Physical activity, wrist temperature, sleep parameters, and light exposure compared. Higher daytime ambient (LE), blue (BLE) ultraviolet B (UVBE) COVID(-) group. In multivariate model, incorporating BLE amplitude, M10 of physical age, sex, amplitude remained the only significant predictor COVID-19 status (observed power 0.701, p 0.013). ANOVA revealed interactions LE, BLE, UVBE between time day (LE: F 2.040, 0.0025; BLE: 2.426, 0.0002; UVBE: 3.096, < 0.0001), higher values observed during office hours differing groups around 3 pm.

Background: Shift work and scheduling are major contributors to occupational stress for nurses, leading job dissatisfaction risk of turnover. Nurse processes complex, as they dynamically linked nurse staffing patient demand. Objective: This study sought describe barriers facilitators influencing satisfaction among staff nurses managers. Methods: We used a qualitative descriptive design. The sampling frame included managers employed at an urban academic medical center. Participants (N = 16) completed individual semi-structured Zoom interviews from August 2023 February 2024, which were audio recorded transcribed. Data analyzed using content analysis. Results: overarching theme identified was “Scheduling is everything,” reflecting the importance nurses’ in outside work. Both tensions between care needs (e.g., adequate staffing) optimize health, sleep). They also shortfalls contributor these tensions. Staff reported that challenges compromised their health well-being, caused work-family conflict, influenced turnover intentions. Facilitators flexibility, autonomy, equity. provided pragmatic ideas improving processes. Conclusions: Our explored perspectives on through lens both Scheduling contribute By increasing equity, integrating nurse-led innovations into process, healthcare organizations can potentially increase retention.
