Abstract

The debate of whether to abolish daylight savings time (DST) is, in part, motivated by the population-level increase in all-cause mortality and incidence of cardiovascular events following DST; however, there is an absence of data to support a physiological basis for risk. We found no changes in pulse wave velocity or augmentation index during the subacute window of DST. Large multisite trials are necessary to address the small, but meaningful, effects brought on by a societal event.
