People who work three hours or more of overtime per day run a 60-percent higher risk of bad heart problems compared to those who work regular hours, a study published in the European Heart Journal said.
一项研究发现,每天加班3个小时以上的人罹患心脏病的几率比正常下班的人高出60%。研究结果刊登在《欧洲心脏病学》杂志上。
The findings came from a long-term research project into 6,014 British civil servants aged 39-61, two-thirds of whom were men, who had healthy hearts at the start of the probe in the early 1990s.
这一发现来自一个长期研究项目,研究人员对英国6014名公务员进行了调查,他们的年龄介于39岁至61岁之间,其中三分之二为男性。他们在上世纪90年代初调查研究开始时都拥有健康的心脏。
At an 11-year monitoring point, 369 of the volunteers had either died of coronary heart disease (CHD) or had had a non-fatal heart attack or angina.
在监测11年后,其中369名志愿者不是死于冠心病,就是曾出现非致命的心脏病发作或心绞痛。
After accounting for risk factors such as smoking, overweight and high cholesterol, doctors found that working between three and four hours of overtime each day was associated with a 60 percent greater risk compared to those who did no overtime.
除了吸烟、体重过重和胆固醇高等危险因素外,医生们发现,每天加班三四个小时的人罹患心脏病的几率比不加班的人高出60%。
