TL;DR: Stress and the social situation at work are strongly linked to disturbed sleep and impaired awakening, that gender and, even more so, age may modify this and that the inability to stop worrying about work during free time may be an important link in the relation between stress and sleep.

TL;DR: It is found that employed males with jobs which are simultaneously low in decision latitude and high in psychological work load have a higher prevalence of myocardial infarction in both data bases.

TL;DR: Testing the assumption that certain psychosocial characteristics of occupational groups are associated with elevated myocardial infarction risk found that shift work and monotony were associated with significant excess risk and Hectic work was not associated with excess risk by itself but in combination with variables associated with low decision latitude and/or few possibilities for growth it was associated withsignificant excess risk.

TL;DR: Findings show an improved risk estimation of acute myocardial infarction by combining information from the two job stress models under study, and gender specific effects of the two components of the effort-reward imbalance model were observed.

TL;DR: Nine thousand and ninety seven male members of the construction building workers trade union in Stockholm, aged between 41 and 61 years, were asked to complete a postal questionnaire between September and November 1972, which predicted several kinds of illnesses.
