With 11 hours of work, the risk of heart disease is 1.7 times more than 8 hours of work



People who work 11 hours a day, such as working overtime every day or bringing home work to their homes, are getting the challenging and funny work for that amount, and that they earn a lot of income compared to their colleagues at 8 hours work scheduled on a regular schedule every day There may also be, as 11 hours of days of labor continue, it seems that there is a possibility of sacrificing health and saving life in exchange with such merit.

According to a survey conducted in the UK, people at 11 hours work are found to have a 67% greater risk of heart disease than people at 8 hours worked.

Details are as below.11-Hour Day Raises Heart Disease Risk By 67% Compared To 8-Hour Day

Anal's of Internal MedicineIn a paper published in a magazine, when physicians analyze the risk factors of cardiac disease, researchers say that working hours should be considered in addition to the patient's weight and blood pressure, whether it is diabetes and smoking habits, etc. It suggests.

University College LondonProfessor Mika Kivimaki and colleagues collected data on more than 10,000 public servants in the UK since 1985, among them at the start of the surveyAngina pectorisSuch asHeart disease(4986 men, 2109 women, aged 39 to 62 years old) who had no symptoms of symptoms, had no history diagnosed as heart disease in the past, and were working full time, Value 12.3 years), and investigate risk factors for heart disease such as cholesterol level, blood pressure, age, whether smoking habits or diabetes, etc., average working hours a day on weekdays (including work brought home) I had my life schedule reported.

Data such as the number and number of people who experienced a heart attack and the number of people who have suffered from various cardiovascular diseases are collected by health checkup every 5 years during the follow-up period, by insurance records and hospital records, and analyzed As a result, by considering the average working hours of week as well as factors such as cholesterol, blood pressure, age and so on as a risk factor, it is possible to analyze the cardiovascular risk more precisely (the predictive value rises by 5%) It turned out to be able to do.

Currently many physicians calculate predictive values ​​for people who do not have a history of heart disease to develop coronary heart disease within the next 10 years "Framingham risk score"Is widely used, but the risk factor used to calculate" Framingham Risk Score "does not include psychological factors such as stress caused by working environment. According to the results of this survey, people with an average working hours of 11 hours a day were 67% higher in cardiac disease risk compared to people with 8 hours work. Based on this result, By adding "working hours" and analyzing physiological data such as age, cholesterol level, blood pressure and weekly working hours as a risk factor of heart disease, it is possible to more accurately identify people of high risk, It is expected to lead to effective preventive medicine.
