Emerging evidence from a number of laboratories indicates that humans have the ability to identify fatty acids in oral cavity, presumably via acid receptors housed on taste cells. Previous research has shown an individual's sensitivity acid, specifically oleic (C18:1) is associated with body mass index (BMI), dietary fat consumption, and foods. We developed reliable reproducible method assess chemoreception acids, using milk C18:1 emulsion, together ascending forced choice triangle...
Gig work is a type of contingent which has increased markedly in recent times, and characterised by uncertainty, unpredictability, instability both schedules income earned. workers are also likely to for multiple platforms and/or employers. These characteristics mean that performing gig associated with higher rates stress than the general population (Madden et al. Pers Rev 2017). However, it not currently known strategies use cope this - including be effective. The aim study was understand...
On-call working arrangements are employed in a number of industries to manage unpredictable events, and often involve tasks that safety- or time-critical. This study investigated the effects call likelihood during an overnight on-call shift on self-reported pre-bed anxiety, sleep next-day cognitive performance. A four-night laboratory-based protocol was employed, with adaptation, control two counterbalanced nights. On one night, participants were instructed they would definitely be called...
New mothers generally experience poor and/or disrupted sleep. A range of infant care and mental health factors may impact new mothers' sleep quality. cross-sectional online survey was completed by a sample 101 Australian with children under 12 months (M = 5.52 months, SD 3.29 months) to examine the relationship between feeding method, sleeping location, postpartum depression maternal Subjective quality measured using Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Edinburgh Postpartum Depression...
Increased fatigue risk has been associated with safety-critical events such as work-related injuries. While control measures are needed to reduce these risks, the wide range and complexities of management strategies can make it difficult for organizations prioritize efforts given limited resources time. Given challenges, aims this commentary two-fold. The first is conceptualize within Total Worker Health (TWH) Hierarchy Controls, a conceptual framework used advance worker safety, health,...
The main aim of this pilot study was to examine the impact sexual activity on objective and subjective sleep parameters. A repeated-measures counterbalanced, cross-over design with three conditions - no sex, solo masturbation, partnered sex employed cohabiting couples. In 14 individuals participated in (7 females, 7 males; mean age 29.9 ± 3.4years). Sexual activities were monitored for 11 consecutive nights using a portable polysomnography system (DREEM3) daily surveys. Linear mixed models...
Objectives This study assessed the feasibility of Sleepfit, an app-based sleep intervention for shiftworkers, to evaluate participant reach, engagement, and interaction.
Adequate sleep is essential to support daily functioning, health, and wellbeing. A 2019 Australian Parliamentary Inquiry made 11 key recommendations, setting a national agenda grow research clinical medicine improve the health of Australians. In 2023, Federal Government endorsed many these recommendations. The Network Early Career Sleep Researchers in Training (NEST), council Australasian Association (ASA), represents students early-career researchers clinicians medicine. this consensus...

Objective: On-call work is becoming increasingly common in response to service demands. This study had two aims; 1) describe the demographic profile of on-call workers Australia, and 2) establish impacts on workers' sleep.Methods: A cross-sectional was conducted using an online questionnaire completed by Australian (n = 228) from various professions. The included items i) characteristics, ii) rumination about factors, iii) sleep quantity quality. Analyses were mixed effects ordinal...
: Today's adolescents are growing up in a unique sociocultural climate which gender issues highly prominent. Alongside new ways of understanding identity, there persistent disparities social, health and mental outcomes despite increasingly egalitarian views significant public focus on sexual assault gender-based violence. Given gender-differentiated emerge during adolescence, it is critical to revisit factors influencing adolescent development. It has been argued that gendered parenting,...
