  • Is job strain a major source of cardiovascular disease risk?

    Open AccessKaren Belkić, Paul Landsbergis et al.ARTICLEScandinavian Journal of Work,…2004

    Empirical studies on job strain and cardiovascular disease (CVD), their internal validity, and the likely direction of biases were examined. The 17 longitudinal studies had the highest validity ratings. In all but two, biases towards the null dominated. Eight, including several of the largest, showed significant positive results; three had positive, nonsignificant findings. Six of nine case-control studies had significant positive findings; recal…

  • Psychological Variables in Hypertension: Relationship to Casual or Ambulatory Blood Pressure in Men

    Richard A Friedman, Richard Friedman et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2001

    OBJECTIVE: The evidence linking hypertension with personality or psychological characteristics, such as anger, anxiety, or depression, remains equivocal. This may be due in part to limitations of personality theory, confounding by awareness of hypertension, and/or inherent difficulties in measuring blood pressure. This study was designed to investigate the association between mild hypertension as defined by both ambulatory and casual (clinic) blo…

  • A Longitudinal Study of Job Strain and Ambulatory Blood Pressure: Results From a Three-Year Follow-up

    Peter L Schnall, J E Schwartz et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine1998

    OBJECTIVE: This study was conducted to investigate the hypothesis that exposure to "job strain" is related to increased ambulatory blood pressure (ABP). METHOD: Participants were 195 men who wore an ABP monitor for 24 hours on two occasions 3 years apart. Job strain status, evaluated at each assessment, was used to identify four groups: those not having job strain at either assessment (N = 138), those having job strain at both times (N = 15), and…

  • Body fat and fat distribution in relation to sex differences in blood pressure

    Open AccessLinda M Gerber, J E Schwartz et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Human Biology1995

    The extent to which the relationship between body fat and blood pressure either differs by sex or explains sex differences in blood pressure is examined. Estimates of the relationship of blood pressure to several measures of adiposity in men and women were obtained from a systematic review of the literature and tests of whether these relationships differ by sex were performed. Analysis of covariance (controlling for age and race) was used for bot…

  • Job characteristics in relation to the prevalence of myocardial infarction in the US Health Examination Survey (HES) and the Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (Hanes)

    Robert Karasek, R A Karasek et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health1988Cited by: 58References: 17

    Associations between psychosocial job characteristics and past myocardial infarction (MI) prevalence for employed males were tested with the Health Examination Survey (HES) 1960-61, N = 2,409, and the Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (HANES) 1971-75, N = 2,424. A new estimation method is used which imputes to census occupation codes, job characteristic information from national surveys of job characteristics (US Department of Labor, Qualit…

  • Improved Hypertension Control Using a Surveillance System in a Neighborhood Health Center

    Donald A Smith, Peter L SchnallARTICLEMedical Care1980

    The Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Health Center has developed a simple inexpensive McBee Card Surveillance System for following approximately 2,000 registered patients with hypertension. The system has been in use for the past two years by three health teams. On a quarterly basis teams and physicians are given reports on the percentage of their hypertensive patients with controlled blood pressure (bp) (bp less than or equal to 140/90 for patients …
