背景本研究探讨了Karasek模型定义的自我报告的工作压力是否与一些早期的、潜在的可改变的心血管（CVD）相关的健康特征相关。数据收集在1989年的横截面调查3843随机选择的男性和女性雇员的32个工作场所在明尼苏达州。性别分层的粗和多变量分析检查工作心理需求的独立关联，纬度，这两个工作领域的组合（即应变），身体质量指数（BMI），吸烟，运动，和膳食脂肪摄入量，结果。男性的工作需求与吸烟、吸烟强度和高脂肪摄入呈正相关，女性的工作需求与BMI和吸烟强度呈正相关。男性和女性的工作纬度与锻炼呈正相关。高压力男性吸烟者比其他工人吸烟更多，高压力女性的BMI高于其他女性。结论。总体而言，自我报告的工作要求，纬度和工作压力与一些心血管疾病相关的健康特征，但影响的程度或方向并不相似的所有特征，他们因性别而异。
Background. This study examined whether self-reported job strain, defined by the Karasek model, was associated with some early, potentially modifiable cardiovascular (CVD)-related health characteristics.Methods. Data were gathered in a 1989 cross-sectional survey of 3843 randomly selected men and women employees of 32 worksites in Minnesota. Sex-stratified crude and multivariate analyses examined the independent association of job psychological demands, latitude, and the combination of these two job domains (i.e. strain), to body mass index (BMI), smoking, exercise, and dietary fat intake,Results. Job demands was positively associated with smoking, smoking intensity, and high fat intake in men and with BMI and smoking intensity in women. Job latitude was positively associated with exercise in men and women. High-strain men smokers smoked more than other workers and high-strain women had higher BMI than other women.Conclusions. Overall, self-reported job demands, latitude, and job strain were associated with some CVD-related health characteristics, but the effects were not similar in magnitude or direction for all characteristics and they varied by sex.
