Assessment

Primary outcomes

The difference in the duration of non-REM sleep stage 3 measured by sleep EEG between nighttime sleep following daytime work and nighttime sleep following a night shift.

Key secondary outcomes

The difference in sleep onset latency measured by sleep EEG between nighttime sleep following daytime work and nighttime sleep following a night shift.
The correlation between sleep EEG parameters and subjective sleep restoration the following morning.
The correlation between sleep EEG parameters and the LF/HF ratio the following morning.
The correlation between sleep EEG parameters and the urinary cortisol-to-creatinine ratio the following morning.
The correlation between sleep EEG parameters and the postprandial glucose incremental area under the curve (iAUC) the following morning.
The difference in subjective sleep restoration between waking after a day shift and waking after a night shift.
The difference in the LF/HF ratio between waking after a day shift and waking after a night shift.
The difference in the urinary cortisol-to-creatinine ratio between waking after a day shift and waking after a night shift.
The difference in the postprandial glucose incremental area under the curve (iAUC) between waking after a day shift and waking after a night shift.
The correlation between the standard deviation of nighttime sleep duration, as measured by actigraphy, and both the average glucose levels and the standard deviation of glucose levels during the observation period.
