• Description:
  Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the longitudinal effect of work-related stress, sleep deficiency, and physical activity on 10-year cardiometabolic risk among an all-female worker population. Methods: Data on patient care workers (n¼99) was collected 2 years apart. Baseline measures included: job stress, physical activity, night work, and sleep deficiency. Biomarkers and objective measurements were used to estimate 10-year cardiometabolic risk at follow-up. Significant associations (P<0.05) from baseline analyses were used to build a multivariable linear regression model. Results: The participants were mostly white nurses with a mean age of 41 years. Adjusted linear regression showed that having sleep maintenance problems, a different occupation than nurse, and/or not exercising at recommended levels at baseline increased the 10-year cardiometabolic risk at follow-up. Conclusions: In female workers prone to work-related stress and sleep deficiency, maintaining sleep and exercise patterns had a strong impact on modifiable 10-year cardiometabolic risk. Erratum: In Table I (p. 945), the columns with recommended physical activity (yes vs. no) need to be switched: Yes=5.6% (6.0%) and No=11.9% (11.7%), instead of No=5.6% (6.0%) and Yes=11.9% (11.7%). In Table II (p. 946), the bolding of categories should be ignored since we have received feedback that the bolding creates confusion between direction, reference categories, and significance level.
