Impact of night shift work on telomere length and epigenetic age in older workers

Abstract Background Night shift work disrupts circadian rhythms and has been associated with various health disorders, particularly in older adults. Biological age indicators, such as telomere length (TL) and DNA methylation (DNAm) age, offer effective tools to assess early ageing-related changes Li...
