Background: Nowadays, shift work is a common work schedule. Shift work has been hypothesized as a risk factor for obesity. So, identifying the effective factors on obesity is of great importance. In the present research, we are going to study the effects of shift work on obesity among military personnel in 2016. Materials and Methods: This descriptive study was carried out on 80 man military a...

Introduction: Exposure to the low frequency electric and magnetic fields (ELF-EMF) is very common in workers occupied in the combined cycle power plant during work shifts  The present study aimed to measure ELF-EMF flux density among shift and non-shift workers, determine job stress among workers and office workers, and identify major factors associated with job stress in the studied groups. M...

OBJECTIVES This article describes the characteristics of shift workers and compares stress factors and health behaviours of shift and regular daytime workers. Based on an analysis of people followed over four years, associations between the incidence of chronic conditions and changes in psychological distress levels are explored in relation to working shift. DATA SOURCES Data are from the 200...

This study aimed to explore the association between shift work and work-related injuries. We collected data on workers from an electronics factory. This cross-sectional study included 13,610 subjects, who were assessed based on a self-reported questionnaire about their shift work experiences, work-related injuries, and other covariates. Multiple logistic regression models were used to evaluate ...

Let a be an l-sequence generated by a feedback-with-carry shift register with connection integer q = pe, where p is an odd prime and e 1. Goresky and Klapper conjectured that when pe = 2 f5; 9; 11; 13g, all decimations of a are cyclically distinct. When e = 1 and p > 13, they showed that the set of distinct decimations is large and, in some cases, all deciamtions are distinct. In this article, ...

An arrays of O's and l's has the u v horizontal window property if every nonzero view is seen once when a u v window is moved horizontally across the array. We study the problem of constructing an array which, for a given m, has the u x v horizontal window property for all factorizations rn uv. Using maximal linear shift register sequences for the rows we are able to construct such arrays of si...

For any integer N > 1, we construct feedback with carry shift registers over Z/(N) (N -FCSRs). The case when N is a prime, was investigated by Klapper and Goresky [1, 2]. We present the basic properties of N -FCSRs. We solve the register synthesis problem: given a small number of symbols of a sequence over Z/(N) synthesize the smallest N -FCSR that outputs the sequence.
