Stress and disrupted circadian rhythm affect metabolism

Image
The researchers studied mice models in the laboratory wherein they introduced genetic alterations in various parts of the circadian rhythm machinery. They also exposed the mice to social stress, wherein they exposed the male mice to an unknown and dominant male. The male mice had increased stress responses depending on the time they were exposed to the stress. In a series of experiments, the team also found that the stress responses were also dependent on the internal body clock, and body weight and food intake had been negatively affected when stress happens during their inactive phase, which is during the daytime in mouse, and night-time in humans. Therefore, they found that repeated exposure to stress negatively affected metabolism, due to long-lasting effects on stress responses. The experiments shed light on who shift-work, chronic stress, jet lag, and lack of good sleep can lead to metabolic disorders. Today, many people are faced with metabolic diseases, including obesity. Many ...

What are the key reasons behind the fall in childhood immunisation rates?

Image
  The blame has been often pushed onto so-called anti-vaxxers and anti-vaccination messages, but those among the profession and beyond believe bigger problems lie with workforce challenges and the healthcare system itself. Helen Bedford, professor of children’s health and a nurse by background, said a key factor in falling rates was the reduction in health visitor numbers. Figures from the Institute of Health Visiting show a 31.8% reduction of health visitors since they were transferred to local authorities from the NHS in 2015. Due to staff shortages, health visitors are being forced to focus more on “at-risk” families, as opposed to promoting health guidance , said professor Bedford, who works at the University College London Institute of Child’s Health. She said this meant issues such as immunization became “less of a priority”. Another problem cited was the accessibility of services. The government has previously suggested that more services should be provided on weekends or ...
