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:

Who needs sleep apnea treatment for safety critical tasks--are we there yet?
TL;DR: This issue of SLEEP attempts to redress the limitations of past research with respect to OSA and motor vehicle crash risk, for the first time assessing the impact of CPAP treatment adherence, and highlights an elevated risk of crash associated with OSA.

Impact of shift work on sleep problems, hormonal changes, and features of metabolic syndrome in a sample of Egyptian industrial workers: a cross-sectional study
TL;DR: Night shift workers are at risk for sleep problems, hormonal imbalance, and features of metabolic syndrome (high BMI, cardiovascular problems, type II diabetes mellitus), thus suggesting that the difference in hormonal levels may be mediated by circadian disruption.

The association between shift work-related sleep complaints and shift work intolerance
Hyuk Joo Lee,Kyung Lak Son,Young Rong Bang,Hong Joon Jeon,Kiheon Lee,In Young Yoon,In Young Yoon +6 more
TL;DR: Doctors need to recognize and modify the associated factors with sleep complaints alleviating shift work-related health burden, as this study suggests that shift-work-related sleep complaints might be a manifestation of shift work intolerance.

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.
