Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We conducted a follow-up survey on the relationship between job stress, which was assessed in 1996 and 2002, and incidence of cerebro-/cardio-vascular diseases in 7,310 men aged 30 and above working for a metal products factory (average age:44.9±8.3 years old, follow-up time:1-144 months, total person-year:52,712 person-years). Both low job discretion group compared with the high group and high job strain group in comparison with the opposite group tended to show high incidence of cerebrovascular diseases even after adjustment for age, educational background, smoking habit, alcohol intake, exercise, and medication. However, no apparent relationship was noted between job stress and incidence of an ischemic heart disease.
