Modeling biological rhythms in failure time data
BACKGROUND The human body exhibits a variety of biological rhythms. There are patterns that correspond, among others, to the daily wake/sleep cycle, a yearly seasonal cycle and, in women, the menstrual cycle. Sine/cosine functions are often used to model biological patterns for continuous data, but this model is not appropriate for analysis of biological rhythms in failure time data. METHODS ...
متن کاملDiurnal Rhythms in Blood Cell Populations and Sleep Deprivation
933 Sleep Deprivation Affects Diurnal Rhythmicity—Ackermann et al obesity, diabetes, and hypertension.5,6 People with unusual working hours, such as shift workers, seem to be especially affected; a recent in-depth review on the association between night work and the development of chronic diseases including breast cancer, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic syndrome concluded that there is ev...
متن کاملCircadian Computing: Sensing, Modeling, and Maintaining Biological Rhythms
Human physiology and behavior are deeply rooted in the daily 24 h temporal structure. Our biological processes vary significantly, predictably, and idiosyncratically throughout the day in accordance with these circadian rhythms, which in turn influence our physical and mental performance. Prolonged disruption of biological rhythms has serious consequences for physical and mental well-being, con...
متن کاملConcepts in human biological rhythms
Biological rhythms and their temporal organization are adaptive phenomena to periodic changes in environmental factors linked to the earth's rotation on its axis and around the sun. Experimental data from the plant and animal kingdoms have led to many models and concepts related to biological clocks that help describe and understand the mechanisms of these changes. Many of the prevailing concep...
متن کاملBiological Rhythms in the Skin
Circadian rhythms, ≈24 h oscillations in behavior and physiology, are reflected in all cells of the body and function to optimize cellular functions and meet environmental challenges associated with the solar day. This multi-oscillatory network is entrained by the master pacemaker located in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the hypothalamus, which directs an organism's rhythmic expression o...
