Individual differences in tolerance to shift work – A systematic review
TLDR
This paper systematically review literature published investigating the relation between individual differences such as age, gender, personality, morningness/eveningness as well as biological variables and different measures of shift work tolerance from 1998 till 2009 to indicate that young age, male gender, low scores on morningness, high scores on flexibility andLow scores on languidity are related to higher shift workolerance.About:

Sleep Patterns, Alertness and Fatigue of Shift Nurses according to Circadian Types
jihyun baek,Choi， KwonSmi +1 more
Abstract: 1. 연구의 필요성 교대근무는 24시간 의료를 제공해야 하는 간호사에게 필수적인 근무 형태이다[1]. 그러나 교대근무는 개인 고유의 일주기 리듬(circadian rhythm)을 교란시켜 생물학적, 심리사회적인 변화와 건강문 제를 야기 할 수 있으며[2], 이러한 건강문제 중 하나가 수면 문제이 다[3]. 교대근무는 불규칙한 수면 양상을 유발하고, 수면의 질을 저 하 시킨다. 수면 부족은 휴식을 취하더라도 그 여파가 2-3일 지속되 므로 간호사의 피로를 누적 시킬 수 있다. 이러한 수면 부족은 근무 중 과도한 졸음을 유발하여 간호 업무 시 투약 오류, 수행능력 감퇴, 의료기기의 오작동, 환자 파악의 오류 등의 여러 가지 병원 내 사고 의 위험을 높이는 것으로 보고되고 있다[4]. 따라서 교대근무 간호 사의 수면 양상과 각성도, 피로도는 간호사 개인의 건강상태와 삶

The effects of three consecutive 12-hour shifts on cognition, sleepiness, and domains of nursing performance in day and night shift nurses: A quasi-experimental study.
Lois James,Nathaniel Elkins-Brown,Marian Wilson,Stephen M. James,Elizabeth Dotson,Charles Dan Edwards,Laura Wintersteen-Arleth,Kevin Stevens,Patricia Butterfield +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of three consecutive 12-hour day and night shifts on cognition, sleepiness, and nursing performance were investigated. But, the authors did not investigate individual differences in all measures, and individual differences varied from trivial to extensive.

Laura Palagini,Laura Palagini,Mario Miniati,Lucia Massa,Federica Folesani,Donatella Marazziti,Donatella Marazziti,Luigi Grassi,Dieter Riemann +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors conducted a systematic review according to PRISMA guidelines on prevalence and management of insomnia and circadian sleep disorders in ovarian cancer, while selecting 22 papers, and found that insomnia increased from 14% to 60% of patients.

Supporting the Self-care Practices of Shift Workers
TL;DR: This study investigates how shift workers engage in self-care to avoid health issues and deal with their shifts in practical terms, and describes the design of a mobile app for shift workers, designed based on the characteristics and self- care practices of shift workers.

Is there an association between shift work and having a metabolic syndrome? Results from a population based study of 27 485 people
TL;DR: Obesity, high triglycerides, and low concentrations of HDL cholesterol seem to cluster together more often in shift workers than in day workers, which might indicate an association between shift work and the metabolic syndrome.

PER3 Polymorphism Predicts Sleep Structure and Waking Performance
Antoine U. Viola,Simon Archer,LM James,John A. Groeger,June C. Lo,Debra J. Skene,Malcolm von Schantz,Derk-Jan Dijk +7 more
TL;DR: The data show that this polymorphism in PER3 predicts individual differences in the sleep-loss-induced decrement in performance and that this differential susceptibility may be mediated by its effects on sleep homeostasis.

Metabolic disturbances in male workers with rotating three-shift work. Results of the WOLF study
TL;DR: A significant association between shift work and lipid disturbances (i.e. low HDL-cholesterol and high triglyceride levels) was found and any association with hyperglycaemia was found.

Towards a Predictive Test of Adjustment to Shift Work
TL;DR: It is concluded that it may prove feasible to develop a questionnaire that would predict the degree to which people's rhythms would adjust to shift work, and that flexibility of sleeping habits and the ability to overcome drowsiness should be components of such a questionnaire.
