Physiology of Stress and Regeneration in Job Related Cardiovascular Illness

Karasek, Robert A., Russell, R. Scott, Theorell, Tores·1982·Journal of Human Stress

Abstract

The possible physiological significance of individual control over environmental/occupational stressors has not been discussed systematically in relation to cardiovascular disease. In this paper we review associations between stressors and control in the work situation and endocrine, metabolic, and cardiovasclar activity, using the categories “anabolic” and “catabolic” to organize the findings in relation to the development of ischemic cardiovascular disease. We propose a comprehensive hypothesis, related to existing stress models which incorporates potential physiological regenerative or ameliorating—as well as pathologic—effects of stressor exposure. Regenerative processes are hypothesized to occur in circumstances where equilibrium or a match exists between environmental demands and possibilities for individual control over those demands, whereas pathologic consequences would occur when demands exceed control. This theory is further proposed to account for cardiovascular pathophysiologic differences found between occupational groups. Finally, empirical testing of the validity of this theory is discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
