Shift work associated with various health problems and there is concern that shift workers are at higher risk to develop hypertension. A cross-sectional study was conducted from December 2003 to May 2004 to compare the prevalence of hypertension and to examine the relationship between shift work and hypertension among 148 randomly selected male workers from one of the factories in Kota Bharu, Kelantan. Information on psychosocial and life-style factors, anthropometric and blood pressure measurements, and fasting blood sugar and lipid profiles analyses were obtained. The prevalence of hypertension was significantly higher among shift workers (22.4%) compared to day workers (4.2%), with p-value of 0.001. Shift work was significantly associated with hypertension (adjusted odds ratio 9.1; 95% CI 1.4-56.7).
轮班工作与各种健康问题相关,人们担心轮班工人患高血压的风险更高。2003年12月至2004年5月进行了一项横断面研究,以比较高血压患病率,并研究吉兰丹州哥打巴鲁一家工厂随机抽取的148名男性工人中轮班工作与高血压之间的关系。收集了有关心理社会和生活方式因素、人体测量和血压测量以及空腹血糖和血脂谱分析的信息。与日班工人(4.2%)相比,轮班工人的高血压患病率显著更高(22.4%),p值为0.001。轮班工作与高血压显著相关(调整后的优势比为9.1;95%置信区间为1.4-56.7)。
