- Evening exposure to a light-emitting diodes (LED)-backlit computer screen affects circadian physiology and cognitive performance. (2011, background): “There is ample evidence that a novel, short-wavelength-sensitive photoreceptor system is primarily responsible for a variety of nonvisual light responses, in particular, resetting the timing of the circadian pacemaker, suppressing melatonin production, improving alertness and performance, and elevat”
- High sensitivity of human melatonin, alertness, thermoregulation, and heart rate to short wavelength light. (2005, background): “Our data are in good agreement with recent findings that the human circadian pacemaker is highly sensitive to short wavelength light (13, 30), as indexed by action spectra for human melatonin suppression and assessment of human circadian phase resetting (5, 6).”
- Circadian genes, rhythms and the biology of mood disorders. (2007, background): “Recent studies have found that light in the blue spectrum (446–477) outperforms other wavelengths in melatonin suppression, circadian phase shifting, and antidepressant effects (Brainard et al., 2001;Thapan et al., 2001;Lockley et al., 2003;Glickman et al., 2006).”
- Non-Visual Effects of Light on Melatonin, Alertness and Cognitive Performance: Can Blue-Enriched Light Keep Us Alert? (2011, result): “This stands in agreement with recent findings suggesting that the human circadian pacemaker is highly sensitive to short wavelength light [6,7], as indexed by action spectra for human melatonin suppression and assessment of human circadian phase resetting [30,31].”
