Abstract:
Objective:To understand the relationship between occupational stress and carotid atherosclerosis in police population of Tianjin City.Methods:A total of 866 male police officers who underwent medical examination and treatment were selected as the survey object. A uniformly designed health questionnaire and occupational stress scale were used for epidemiological investigation. The blood pressure, blood sugar and blood lipid testing, and carotid ultrasound examination were conducted. Multi-factor unconditional logistic regression model was used for statistical analysis.Results:According to the norms of occupational stress of security service personnel, the classification standards of occupational tasks and individual nervous, occupational stress levels were divided into low, moderate, medium and high level. The possibility of occurring CAS in the civilian police population with high and medium individual nervous is 4.37 (95% CI: 1.92~11.59) and 3.28 times (95% CI: 1.84~5.62) than that in the police without nervous. The possibility of occurring CAS in the civilian police population with medium and high level of occupational tasks is 0.19 times (95% CI: 0.06~0.32) and 0.26 times (95% CI: 0.07~0.53) than that in the police with low level of occupational tasks. Conclusions:Occupational stress may be an independent risk factor for CAS occurring in the police population. Therefore, regular psychological counseling is particularly important for the physical and mental health of the police population, which can alleviate occupational stress and psychological pressure.
