Paul Zimmet,K. G. M. M. Alberti,Naftali Stern,Carmel Bilu,Assam El-Osta,Assam El-Osta,Assam El-Osta,Haim Einat,Noga Kronfeld-Schor +8 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that circadian disruption may be an important underlying aetiological factor for the Metabolic Syndrome and it is suggested that it be renamed the ‘Circadian Syndrome’.

Zumin Shi,Jaakko Tuomilehto,Noga Kronfeld-Schor,George Alberti,Naftali Stern,Assam El-Osta,Assam El-Osta,Carmel Bilu,Haim Einat,Paul Zimmet +9 more
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper compared the predictive value of the circadian syndrome and Metabolic syndrome (MetS) for cardiovascular disease, and found that CircS is a strong and better predictor for CVD than MetS in Chinese adults.
Utilization of Diurnal Rodents in the Research of Depression.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used diurnal animal models to study circadian rhythms-related affective disorders, such as depression, will provide new insights that will hopefully lead to the development of more effective treatments.

Carmel Bilu,Carmel Bilu,Paul Zimmet,Vicktoria Vishnevskia-Dai,Haim Einat,Galila Agam,Ehud Grossman,Noga Kronfeld-Schor +7 more
TL;DR: It is shown that diurnal sand rats held outdoors in laboratory cages and fed a standard rodent diet do not develop type 2 diabetes in contrast to animals held indoors and fed the same diet, and keeping sand rats under a short photoperiod dampened behavioral and molecular daily rhythms, resulted in anxiety- and depressive-like behavior, and accelerated the development of T2DM.

The Circadian Syndrome Is a Significant and Stronger Predictor for Cardiovascular Disease than the Metabolic Syndrome—The NHANES Survey during 2005–2016
Zumin Shi,Jaakko Tuomilehto,Noga Kronfeld-Schor,George Alberti,Naftali Stern,Assam El-Osta,Zhonglin Chai,Carmel Bilu,Haim Einat,Paul Zimmet +9 more
TL;DR: In this article , the predictive value of the Circadian Syndrome (CircS) and Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) for cardiovascular disease (CVD) was compared with other factors, such as short sleep and depression.
