Daylight saving time and circadian rhythms in the neuro-endocrine-immune system: impact on cardiovascular health

Previous results show a transient change in timing and incidence of acute myocardial infarction after daylight saving time (increase in the spring and a decrease after returning to standard time in the fall) [3–5] In their study, Mafredini et al. [6] advocate an association between daylight saving t...

Summary:Previous results show a transient change in timing and incidence of acute myocardial infarction after daylight saving time (increase in the spring and a decrease after returning to standard time in the fall) [3–5] In their study, Mafredini et al. [6] advocate an association between daylight saving time and a small increase of acute myocardial infarction occurrence, in particular after the spring shift and in male subjects, probably in relationship to sleep deprivation and circadian misalignment impacting cardiovascular health through increases in sympathetic tone and catecholamine levels
