Association of work-related psychosocial factors and day-to-day home blood pressure variation: the Finn-Home study
J Hypertens. 2023 Nov 16. doi: 10.1097/HJH.0000000000003619. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT OBJECTIVES: Stress, and particularly job strain, has been found to associate with ambulatory blood pressure (BP). Moreover, BP is known to vary between days. One potential over-looked factor underlying this day-to-day BP variation could be work-related psychosocial factors.
