Body mass index (IMT), age, blood pressure and cholesterol levels do indeed affect the risk of heart attacks. But the stress due to overtime work could increase the risk of 5 percent and is expected to trigger a heart attack in 6,000 people/year worldwide.
"These findings still need to be examined further to verify it, but this could be a warning for those who often work overtime especially that already had other risk factors," says Prof. Mika Kivimaki, who led the research, as quoted by Reuters on Tuesday (5/4/2011).
