冠狀動脈心臟病是台灣地區重要的死亡原因之一,近年來冠心病的社會面向致病因子為歐美國家流行病學的一個熱門議題。目前台灣本土的冠心病流行病學研究仍多以生物醫學面向為主,對於社會面向因子的探討仍十分缺乏,瞭解冠心病社會面向的致病因子將有助於公共衛生政策的擬定與衛生醫療資源的分配。
本論文主要探討兩個主題,其一,以橫斷性研究調查探討冠心病危險因子在各社會因子中的分佈狀況;其二,以回溯性病例對照研究探討社經階層、工作特質對急性心肌梗塞罹病風險的影響。
社經階層的測量以個人教育程度、父親教育程度、收入、職等與婚姻狀況五種指標來衡量;工作特質除了以Karasek的Demand-Control Model(負荷-控制模型)的工作控制、工作負荷觀念外,職等、工時以及自覺工作壓力大小也列入考慮。
橫斷性研究主要發現男性教育程度越高者血壓越低、抽煙比例越低、蔬果攝取量越高;女性教育程度越高者血壓越低、蔬果攝取量越高。男性工作控制越高者其抽煙比例越低;女性工作控制越高者其高蔬果攝取比例越高、舒張壓則較低。大體而言,高社經地位族群其冠心病危險因子盛行率較低。
病例對照研究主要發現,高職等族群較好發急性心肌梗塞;在工作特質方面,每週工時超過48小時的族群比起每週工時44-47小時以下的族群其急性心肌梗塞罹病的危險對比值(odds ratio)為14.28,即超時工作可能為急性心肌梗塞發病的危險因子之一。
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is one of the most important causes of death in Taiwan. In recent years, the associations between CHD and social factors have attracted growing interests in western countries. In Taiwan, almost all studies on CHD have focused on biological risk factors; there have been few studies on social factors. A better understanding of the relationship between social factors and CHD can help improve public health policies and allocate medical resources.
There are two purposes in this study: First, we conducted a cross-sectional study to understand the relationship between CHD risk factors and social factors. Second, we conducted a retrospective case-reference study to understand the relationship of socioeconomic status, working conditions and the onset of acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
Socioeconomic status (SES) was measured by education level, father’s education level, occupational grade, income, and marital status. Working conditions were measured by Karasek’s Demand-Control model, as well as occupational grade and working hours.
Our results showed that men with higher education level had lower blood pressure (BP). They also had lower smoking rate and higher vegetable/fruit intake. Women with higher education level had lower BP and higher vegetable/fruit intake. Men with higher job control had lower smoking rate. Women with higher job control had higher vegetable/fruit intake and lower DBP. In general, people with higher SES had lower CHD risk fastors.
Another findings showed that men with higher occupational grade was at a high risk for AMI. As to working conditions, we found that when compared with men with working hours 44-47 hours/week, the odds ratio of AMI for men with working hours >48 hours/week was 14.28. Overtime work may be related to an increased risk of AMI.
