Does Working While Ill Trigger Serious Coronary Events? The Whitehall II Study
Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 08/27/09
Westerlund H et al. – The odds of a coronary event were not higher for cases who worked while ill than for correspondingly unhealthy controls who took >0 to 14 days of absence per year. These results were little affected by multiple adjustments. The authors found no evidence that working while ill acts as a short–term trigger for coronary events.
