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:

Exploratory study of the effects of sex and hormonal contraceptives on alertness, fatigue, and sleepiness of police officers on rotating shifts
TL;DR: In this article , the impact of sex and hormonal contraceptives (HC) use on the homeostatic and diurnal variation of alertness, fatigue, sleepiness, psychomotor performance, and sleep behavior in police officers working rotating shifts was assessed.

Circadian disruption impairs glucose homeostasis in male but not in female mice and is dependent on gonadal sex hormones
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors showed that CD has sex-specific effects on glucose homeostasis, as CD elevated fasting insulin levels in male mice while increasing fasting glucose levels in female mice, which appeared to be independent of behavior, food intake, and energy expenditure.

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.
