在一项随机对照试验中，研究了41名健康早产儿昼夜交替对睡眠、喂养和体重增加的影响。20名来自夜间和日间托儿所的婴儿，在晚上7点到早上7点之间减少了光线和噪音的强度，与来自对照托儿所的21名婴儿相比，睡眠时间更长，喂养时间更短，体重增加更多。差异是显著的，只有在出院回家后才变得明显;在预期的分娩数据后三个月，这些差异仍然存在，夜间和日间托儿所的婴儿平均重0.5 kg（p < 0.02）。这些研究结果表明，物理环境对早产儿随后的行为有影响（直接或间接），并且暴露于夜间和白天是有益的。
The effect of alternating night and day on sleep, feeding, and weight gain in 41 healthy preterm infants was examined in a randomised controlled trial. Twenty infants from a night and day nursery, where the intensity of light and noise was reduced between 7 pm and 7 am, spent longer sleeping and less time feeding and gained more weight than 21 infants from a control nursery, where the intensity of light and noise was not reduced. Differences were significant and became apparent only after discharge home; they were still present three months after the expected data of delivery, when infants from the night and day nursery were an average of 0.5 kg heavier (p < 0.02). These findings suggest that physical environment has an effect (either direct or indirect) on the subsequent behaviour of preterm infants and that exposure to night and day is beneficial.
