Change in job satisfaction, and its association with self-reported stress, cardiovascular risk factors and mortality
TL;DR: There was limited evidence of an association between job satisfaction and age-adjusted CVD risk factors for men, after adjustment for occupational class, but there was no evidence of any association for women.
