For example, many illnesses such as strokes are more common on Mondays.1 Do cessation behaviors also have weekly rhythms?

The existence of circaseptan rhythms (endogenous rhythms with the duration of a week) has been postulated but not properly verified. In this study, we compared plasma concentration of lactic acid, systolic and diastolic blood pressu...

Herein, the time structure (chronome) of human mood is re-examined and extended from the circadian to the circaseptan domain by a meta-analysis of data...
