Abstract

In this work, we analyzed the effect of the disturbed circadian rhythm on carbohydrate metabolism and on the severity of obesity in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus working in night shifts were presented as a model of patients with circadian rhythm disturbance. The study shows that circadian rhythm disturbance increases the risk of obesity due to the high variability of glucose in the blood.
