Description
Reviews the current state of knowledge on chronobiology, with reference to sleep patterns, gastro-intestinal rhythms and nutrition, cellular and molecular mechanisms, athletic performance, agricultural implications and many other topics.
Table of Contents
- Part 1 Behaviour: co-variance of daylight, sport participation, and sleep patterns. Part 2 Gastro-intestinal rhythms and nutrition: circadian periodicity of the time of onset of acute lower gastro-intestinal bleeding. Part 3 Cellular and molecular mechanisms: are tidal rhythms ultradian, circadian or infradian?. Part 4 Chronobiology in the work place and in sports: can athletic performance be statistically predicted?
- a follow-up study
