Abstract

The misalignment between the circadian clock and behavioral cycles has been implicated in pathogenesis of many diseases. The main purpose of this study is to examine the association between rotating night shift work, exposure to light at night, and glomerular filtration rate among steelworkers in north China. A total of 6869 steelworkers, aged 22 to 60 years, were included in this study. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine the association between night shift work, the brightness of bedroom ambient light at night (LAN), and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), with adjustment for potential confounders. Mediation analysis was performed to examine the mediation effect of potential mediators on the association of duration of night shifts and eGFR. Long duration of night shift work (≥29 years) had elevated odds of decreased eGFR (≤89 mL/min/1.73 m 2 ) (odds ratio (OR), 1.37, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.09–1.73) compared with day work after adjustment for potential confounders. The association between duration of night shifts and eGFR (continuous) was partially modified by diastolic blood pressure (average causal mediation effect (ACME), –0.077, 95% CI –0.134 to −0.030, p < 0.001). No significant associations were observed among the different brightness of bedroom ambient light levels: middle level (OR, 0.90, 95% CI 0.77–1.05), lightest level (OR, 0.94, 95% CI 0.75–1.18), and decreased eGFR compared with the darkest level. Long-term night-shift work, rather than the brightness of bedroom ambient LAN, is associated with early stage of renal dysfunction in steelworkers, and blood pressure may mediate the relationship between night shift work and decreased eGFR.
