✴ Light as a stimulant
✴ Man has more sensuality than animals, so light is
more effective (understanding sens. as ratio between
body and brain size)
✴ Eye is not only a tool for vision but part of the
sympathetic nervous system/governour
✴ Light window of nervous system
✴ Rhythmic occurrence of light creates periodical
proceedings in the body
✴ Effect of civilization prevents accommodation to soft
stimuli
✴ Decrease of ability of adjustment to external rhythms
✴ Higher mortality in cities, diseases of darkness

Dr. Ernst Horn 1799/3

✴ "Eine Materie, die, wie das Licht, überall verbreitet ist, und
die auf so mancherlei Weise auf alle Geschöpfe die
wichtigsten Wirkungen hervorbringt, durch deren
Gegenwart vorzüglich auf der ganzen Oberfläche der Erde
Leben und Thätigkeit möglich gemacht wurde; welche der
ganze physische Zustand des Menschen, wie er nun
einmal ist, der größte Theil seiner Einwirkung auf die
Körperwelt bedingte; eine solche Materie kann für sich und
ohne das Hinzukommen besonderer Umstände keine
schädlichen Wirkungen hervorbringen. Licht ist in dem
Grade, das dem Klima seinen gesunden Bewohners
angemessen ist, keinesfalls gesundheitsschädlich, sondern
im Gegenteil, der Gesundheit förderlich.“

Results and Consequences

Kloog, Itai; Haim, Abraham; Stevens, Richard G.; Barchana, Micha; Portnov, Boris A. (2008): Light at night co-distributes with incident breast but not lung
cancer in the female population of Israel. In: Chronobiology international, Jg. 25, H. 1, S. 65–81.

Recent studies of shift-working women have reported that excessive exposure to light at night (LAN) may be a risk factor for breast cancer. However, no
studies have yet attempted to examine the co-distribution of LAN and breast cancer incidence on a population level with the goal to assess the coherence of
these earlier findings with population trends. Coherence is one of Hill's "criteria" (actually, viewpoints) for an inference of causality. Nighttime satellite images
were used to estimate LAN levels in 147 communities in Israel. Multiple regression analysis was performed to investigate the association between LAN and
breast cancer incidence rates and, as a test of the specificity of our method, lung cancer incidence rates in women across localities under the prediction of a
link with breast cancer but not lung cancer. After adjusting for several variables available on a population level, such as ethnic makeup, birth rate, population
density, and local income level, a strong positive association between LAN intensity and breast cancer rate was revealed (p<0.05), and this association
strengthened (p<0.01) when only statistically significant factors were filtered out by stepwise regression analysis. Concurrently, no association was found
between LAN intensity and lung cancer rate. These results provide coherence of the previously reported case-control and cohort studies with the co-
distribution of LAN and breast cancer on a population basis. The analysis yielded an estimated 73% higher breast cancer incidence in the highest LAN
exposed communities compared to the lowest LAN exposed communities.
