Outline of Final Research Achievements

Humans have an intrinsic rhythm that defines approximately 25 hours as a “day,” and they reset their central and peripheral clocks daily through light and meal, leading a 24-hour cycle that is in sync with the earth's rotation. Mothers during pregnancy and the postpartum period, however, tend to have circadian rhythms that are easily disrupted.
In this research project, we conducted a questionnaire survey of postpartum mothers in relation to circadian rhythms and prepared a paper. In addition, papers on the regulation and function of clock genes and the relationship between feeding and circadian rhythms were published using model animals.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

産褥期の母親を対象として行なった概日リズムと関連する質問紙調査の結果は、今後の論文発表、並びに更なる研究継続により、産後の女性の心の健康維持に資する新たなセルフケアの提案につながる可能性がある。出産後、多くの母親にマタニティ・ブルーズが見られ、一部の母親は産後うつ病等の精神疾患を発症する。母親の産後の心の不調をセルフケアにより緩和することができれば、多くの母子とその家族にとって有益となると考える。
