“…Even though shift work was not independently associated with cardiometabolic outcomes in adjusted analyses, shift types remained highly associated with having a history of smoking with smoking status (past or current). Previous studies have extensively shown that shift work is related to smoking behavior status [11,[21][22][23][24] and individuals who had participated in shift work were found to have had an increased likelihood of consuming stimulants, including current tobacco use. Moreover, the association between shift work and smoking has been reported to be independent of other factors, such as SES [24].…”

Background: Shift work is known to increase the risk of cardiometabolic diseases and mortality. We investigate the relationship between shift work schedules and cardiometabolic risk factors (smoking, hypertension, and obesity) and their association with cardiometabolic diseases (diabetes and cardiovascular diseases) in a multi-ethnic population from Singapore. Methods: 2469 participants from the Singapore-based Multi-Ethnic Cohort underwent physical and clinical assessments. Shift work schedules (morning, evening, night, and mixed) were assessed using a validated questionnaire. Results: Among shift workers, night shift workers had a significantly higher prevalence of smoking (54.5%), diabetes (27.3%), and cardiovascular events (14.1%). Compared to non-shift workers, workers in the night (OR = 2.10, 95%CI: 1.26–3.41) and mixed (OR = 1.74, 95%CI: 1.22–2.48) shift groups were more likely to be current smokers. A significant association between shift duration and smoking (OR = 1.02, 95%CI: 1.00–1.03) was also observed, with longer shift duration (in years) leading to an increase in smoking behavior. No significant associations were found between shift work schedules and hypertension, obesity (BMI), diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, as well as other cardiometabolic risk factors and diseases. Conclusion: This study found that shift schedules and shift duration were most strongly associated with smoking status after covariate adjustments (age, gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and work arrangement), with night and mixed shift types being strongly associated with current smoker status. As smoking is a modifiable risk factor for cardiometabolic disease, employers of shift workers should increase work-based health interventions to control smoking and promote a healthier workforce.

Introduction. A healthy lifestyle is a lifestyle aimed at preventing emergence and development of non-communicable diseases characterized by exclusion or reduction of behavioral risk factors. Adherence to the principles of healthy lifestyle among medical workers abroad is of great importance. Therefore, it is relevant to study foreign experience related to adherence to healthy lifestyle among medical professionals (doctors and nursing staff), both in routine practice and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Materials and methods. During a search for the keywords “healthy lifestyle”, “medical workers” and “pandemic” in the period from 2014 to 2023 conducted in the PubMed international database, more than a thousand of systematic reviews, meta-analyses and articles on relevant scientific and practical topics were found. Results of interest included occupational health and health behavior of medical workers. After the final selection and exclusion of the results that are scientifically and practically insignificant, 30 sources from 27 countries were included in the analysis. The authors assessed the quality of these reviews, meta-analyses and articles and obtained new summarized data on the topic. Results and discussion. The article presents analysis and summary of 30 systematic reviews, meta-analyses and articles published from 2014 to 2023 by authors from 27 countries. For this purpose, the results of an analysis of adherence to healthy lifestyle among medical workers, the relationship of lifestyle and health-related behavior; lifestyle, shift work and health; lifestyle and disease development in routine practice as well as during the COVID-19 pandemic were presented. Conclusion. The correlation of lifestyle and health-related behavior of medical workers; lifestyle, shift work and health; lifestyle and disease development in routine practice as well as during the COVID-19 pandemic were revealed. Optimizing recommendations suggesting necessary and appropriate measures to improve the adherence to healthy lifestyle among medical workers were elaborated.

“…Heavy workloads, complex interpersonal relationships, negative stimulation due to the pain and death of patients, stress caused by worrying about errors and accidents [ 12 ] and physical and mental fatigue caused by frequent shift work [ 13 ] are all risk factors affecting the physical and mental health of nurses. In terms of physical health, nurses have an increased incidence of insomnia, obesity, stomach diseases, endocrine disorders, varicose veins and even breast cancer due to these risk factors [ 14 – 18 ]. In terms of mental health, nurses experience anxiety and depression due to changes in hospital units or departments, heavy workloads and long-term work in stressful and uncertain environments [ 19 ].…”

Background Occupational health is essential for nurses in clinical nursing practice. However, there is no specific tool for measuring the health behaviour of clinical nurses in China. This study aimed to translate the Positive Health Behaviours Scale into Chinese and validate its psychometric properties among clinical nurses. Design A cross-sectional design with repeated measures. Methods A total of 633 clinical nurses were recruited by convenience sampling from hospitals in Liaoning Province, China. After obtaining the authorization of the original author, the PHBS was translated into Chinese by the Brislin back-translation method. Item analysis was completed to evaluate item discrimination, and the Delphi method was adopted to analyse content validity. Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were conducted to explore and validate the underlying factor structure. Internal consistency and test-retest reliability were calculated to evaluate reliability. Results A total of 29 items were retained in the item analysis, and the content validity index of the translated scale was 0.956. In the EFA, four common factors were extracted (nutrition, physical activity, relaxation and behaviours related to mental health and preventive behaviours), explaining 60.81% of the total variance. The results of the CFA were as follows: χ2/df = 1.363, GFI = 0.902, NFI = 0.909, IFI = 0.974, TLI = 0.971, CFI = 0.974, RMSEA = 0.034, and RMR = 0.023. The results of the EFA and CFA showed that the translated scale had good structural validity. Cronbach’s α coefficient, the split-half reliability and the test-retest reliability of the Chinese version of the PHBS were 0.928, 0.953 and 0.891, respectively. At the same time, the translated scale had good reliability. Conclusions The Chinese version of the PHBS for clinical nurses had good psychometric properties. The results of the questionnaire survey effectively and comprehensively reflect the level of health behaviours in clinical nurses, which provides a scientific reference for determining the intervention target.
