A Comprehensive Evaluation of the Association between Food Quality and Musculoskeletal Pain in Night Shift Worker

Abstract

Information and communication technology, an overall arrangement of data trade, has been developing for over
a time of hundred years and enormously speeding up in development and improvement. Now days, information
technology gives the correspondence and insightful force in each field like food and agribusiness, wellbeing,
army and defense, business, education and learning, climate forecast, research and advancement and some more.
India has been in the bleeding edge in digital world with IT industry forming into a significant specialist cooperation.
There are many consequences resulting from computer usage. For example, excessive computer use may result
in lack of sleep, reduces sleep quality. It may also lead to musculoskeletal problem a condition and overtime
workers affect their diet quality as well. In an IT professional’s job, present advancement is empowered by
adaptable working hours. This might actually produce hazards for wellbeing and recuperation from work (for
example over dedication to job and sleep deficiency). Extended work duration and decreased sleep have both
been observed to be related with a higher danger of medical issues .
Shift workers deals with the changing hours of the day (morning, evening and night shift) or work at consistent
hours of the day outside the regular all day (eg, lasting nightshift). Night shift work particularly brings
sleeplessness and may lead to circadian interruption with injurious metabolic and cardiovascular effects. Night
workers have a changed diet consumption, comparatively with day workers manifest by a strong snacking habit
through the nighttime duration of work.
Night shift workers consumed more junk food compared with day workers. Night shift workers ate more soft
drinks/beverages than day workers. Variations in nutrient intake between day and shift workers in saturated
and polyunsaturated fatty acids, dietary fibre, vitamin B1, vitamin A, potassium and carbohydrates have been
suggested in some works.
The aim and purpose of this study was to find out the comprehensive literature showing the presence of association
between the alteration in sleep timing, eating hours, which are responsible for many musculoskeletal disorders
and the associated risk factors.
