 This study found that university professors have higher levels of stress, anxiety, and poor sleep quality, which can lead to circadian disruption and increased vulnerability to developing metabolic syndromes such as obesity and type 2 diabetes. The results also showed that social jet lag, SJL, and blood glucose concentrations were strongly correlated, suggesting that challenges to the circadian system can affect metabolism.
