Abstract : Aim: To determine the relationship between shift work and blood profile, particularly vitamins, hormones, electrolytes, liver function tests and kidney function tests among pharmaceutical industry production workers. Methodology: A random selection of 50 workers from different units of pharmaceutical industry in Jeddah was made. After excluding 3 workers because they have chronic disease and they use medicine. 47 respondents were analyzed for vitamins, hormones, electrolytes, liver function tests and kidney function tests along with blood pressure. We did two tailed t test analysis to get p value. The given model adjusted with marital status, drugs or diseases, work place etc. Results: The average age for night shift workers was 33.62 and day shift workers was 35.82 and was found to be 0.2277# . It was observed that relative to night time, Glucose ,WBC , Lymphocyte, MID , PMNL, MPV , PDW , Calcium, Magnesium, AST, Sodium ,Creatinine, Uric Acid, Urea ,CRP, Triglycerides Vitamin D3 and FT4. The values are 0.3082, 0.4353, 0.4955, 0.4878, 0.3334, 0.1999, 0.3468, 0.2371, 0.2910, 0.4888, 0.3706, 0.3361,0.4104, 0.5003, 0.461, 0.5116, 0.1510, 0.1684 and 0.2191 respectively werealtered in day shift workers. In two tailed t test the significant is not necessarily p<0.5. This is an observational results obtained from the data. However, there was not significant alteration in Hemoglobin, PCV, RBCs, MCH, MCHC, MCV, P-LCR, ALT, FT3 during night or day time. Conclusion: The above finding suggest that shift work is very much related to disturbance in Vitamin D, triglycerides, some kidney and liver function parameters along with thyroid that can increase the risk of these workers for cardiac, thyroid or other metabolic disorders in them.
