Risk stratification and early interventions are essential to overcome this reality.

Circadian misalignment and cardiovascular health, from shift work to social jet...
Madeira, Sara Alexandra GamboaCircadian rhythms (from the Latin circa diem meaning “about a day”) are biological cycles endogenously generated. These rhythms are self-sustained, have a period of approximately 24h and are generated by an internal biological master clock, which entrains (synchronizes) to environmental cues. The 24h light–dark cycle, resulting from the Earth's rotation on its own axis, is the major synchronizer shaping several...
The impact of different types of shift work on blood pressure and hypertension:...
Madeira, Sara Alexandra Gamboa; Fernandes, Carina; Paiva, Teresa; Santos Moreira, Carlos; Caldeira, DanielShift work (SW) encompasses 20% of the European workforce. Moreover, high blood pressure (BP) remains a leading cause of death globally. This review aimed to synthesize the magnitude of the potential impact of SW on systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and hypertension (HTN). MEDLINE, EMBASE and CENTRAL databases were searched for epidemiological studies evaluating BP and/or HTN diagnos...
Social jetlag, a novel predictor for high cardiovascular risk in blue‐collar wo...
Madeira, Sara Alexandra Gamboa; Reis, Cátia; Paiva, Teresa; Santos Moreira, Carlos; Nogueira, Paulo Jorge; Roenneberg, TillCardiovascular diseases cause >4 million deaths each year in Europe alone. Preventive approaches that do not only consider individual risk factors but their interaction, such as the Systematic COronary Risk Evaluation (SCORE), are recommended by European guidelines. Increased cardiovascular risk is associated with shift-work, surely interacting with the concurrent conditions: disruption of sleep, unhealthy beha...

Reis, Cátia; Madeira, Sara Alexandra Gamboa; Lopes, Luísa; Paiva, Teresa; Roenneberg, TillIntroduction: Differences in the manner circadian clocks entrain to the 24-h day are expressions of different chronotypes that can range from extreme early to extreme late, from proverbial larks to owls. The Morningness Eveningness Questionnaire (MEQ) was one of the first to assess daily preference based on subjective self-assessment – a psychological construct. The later developed Munich Chronotype Questionnai...
