Rotating night shift work and liver enzymes-associated abnormalities among steelworkers: a cross-sectional study from a Chinese cohort
Night Shift Work and Liver Enzyme Changes in Steelworkers from China
AI simplified
Abstract
Rotating night shift work is associated with an odds ratio of 1.31 for increased liver enzymes in male steelworkers.
- Longer durations of night shifts are positively associated with higher odds of liver enzyme abnormalities.
- Significant associations exist between night shift exposure metrics and elevated levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and gamma-glutamyl transaminase (GGT).
- Groups working current night shifts or with a cumulative number of night shifts greater than 1643 nights show elevated odds of liver enzyme increases.
- No significant associations were observed for female steelworkers regarding liver enzymes and night shift work.
