Psychosocial work characteristics and cardiovascular disease risk factors in young adults: The CARDIA study

Association between work-related psychological stress and arterial stiffness measured by brachial-ankle pulse-wave velocity in young Japanese males from an information service company

“…Although a relationship between job strain and CVD has been widely researched in western countries (3)(4)(5)8), the job-strain hypothesis remains to be established in other countries (15, 17-18, 20, 41-43). The results of the CARDIA study (18) were compatible with our findings, showing inverse associations with risk factors for high job demand, low control, and job strain among young adults. Several possible reasons for the inconsistent effects for job stress with respect to the job-strain hypothesis on baPWV as observed in our study follow.…”

Association of Occupational Stress and Social Support with Health‐related Behaviors among Chinese Offshore Oil Workers

“…Some studies found that occupational stress was positively associated with smoking behavior and the amount of cigarettes smoked [3][4][5][6][7] . Such associations have not been found in other studies 8,9) . Five studies consistently showed that occupational stress was related to workers' alcohol usage [8][9][10][11][12] .…”

“…Such associations have not been found in other studies 8,9) . Five studies consistently showed that occupational stress was related to workers' alcohol usage [8][9][10][11][12] . A similar association was also observed between perceived stress from different sources at work and workers' physical exercise outside work [4][5][6] .…”

Job constraints and arterial hypertension: different effects in men and women: the IHPAF II case control study

“…However, the association between decision latitude and blood pressure was the opposite from what was expected. 36 We did not find a main effect of social support at work on hypertension in our sample of men and women. Neither did social support at work buffer the effect of job strain on hypertension.…”
