Associations of job strain and lifestyle risk factors with risk of coronary artery disease: a meta-analysis of individual participant data

Abstract: Background: It is unclear whether a healthy lifestyle mitigates the adverse effects of job strain on coronary artery disease. We examined the associations of job strain and lifestyle risk factors with the risk of coronary artery disease. Methods: We pooled individual-level data from 7 cohort studies comprising 102 128 men and women who were free of existing coronary artery disease at baseline (1985-2000). Questionnaires were used to measure job strain (yes v. no) and 4 lifestyle risk factors: current smoking, … Show more

“…The cumulative effects of stress on the body (known as allostatic load) and its adaptive processes explain, in part, how stress and low protective factors, such as low social support, increase vulnerability to poor health (Gruenewald et al, Chronic disadvantage, such as low income or ethnic minority status, or life-stage stresses also may favor development of unhealthy lifestyle behaviors (Correa et al, 2015;Crespo, Smith, Andersen, Carter-Pokras, & Ainsworth, 2000) and depression (Katon, Russo, & Gavin, 2014;Pratt & Brody, 2008), which are early and modifiable risk factors for chronic disease. As a result, postpartum behavioral and psychosocial health domains overlap with many of the common risk factors for chronic disease development: poor diet, low physical activity, smoking, high alcohol use, and depression (CDC, 2012;Ferketich, Schwartzbaum, Frid, & Moeschberger, 2000;Kivimaki et al, 2013;Pan et al, 2011). Body image is another critical postpartum domain central to the postpartum experience (Gjerdingen et al, 2009) that has implications for depression and health behaviors such as smoking (Levine, Marcus, Kalarchian, Houck, & Cheng, 2010;Walker, Timmerman, Kim, & Sterling, 2002).…”

“…17 In contrast, it was recently reported that a healthy lifestyle could substantially decrease the risk of coronary artery disease among people with occupational stress. 18 We examined whether potentially favourable (frequent consumption of plain dairy yogurts, dark bread, porridge, fish, salad dressings, fresh and cooked vegetables, fruits and berries) and unfavourable (frequent consumption of red or processed meat, hamburgers and pizzas, fried potatoes, sugar-sweetened soft drinks and white bread) features of diet modify the association between occupational psychosocial factors and abdominal obesity among a cohort of 31-year-old Finns.…”

“…The findings of the IPD Consortium have been published in The Lancet (5) and the Canadian Medical Association Journal (CMAJ) (6). They show a consistent and statistically significant age-and sex-adjusted relationship between job strain and MI risk, which remains even after further adjustments for country, socioeconomic position, and standard risk factors.…”
