“…Although the role of psychosocial work stress as a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases has been still under debate, work stressors, such as job strain and long working hours, were associated with a moderately elevated risk of incident coronary heart disease and stroke (23). In the same context, Verdejo et al indicated that drivers, secretaries, or managers with minimum physical activities have a higher prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors (24). Some other studies pointed to the relationship of pesticide exposure, especially organophosphate, organelle chlorine, and herbicides, with the risk of CVD and coronary heart disease (CHD) (15).…”

Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality across the globe. Activity status is used as a social class marker of CVDs. Objectives: The present study aimed to analyze the associations between occupational status and CVDs in Iranian population. Methods: The present cross-sectional study was conducted on 9,990 subjects aged 35-70 years enrolled in the Rafsanjan Cohort Study (RCS), as one of the Prospective Epidemiological Research Studies in Iran (PERSIAN). Occupational status, socio-demographic characteristics, physical activity, cigarette and hookah smoking, opium use, and alcohol consumption were assessed through six pre-designed questionnaires. Anthropometric, body mass index (BMI), medical history, and laboratory tests were also performed. CVDs were defined as the presence of ischemic heart disease (IHD) or myocardial infarction (MI). Prevalence ratios were calculated for each activity status and CVD using Poisson regression models. Results: The occupational activities were assigned to two classes: homemaker (40.17%) was the largest group of class I, followed by self-employed (34.44%), employed (13.03%), retired (10.38%), and unemployed (1.62%). In class II, the largest group included pistachio farmers (12.61%), copper miners (3.62%), and others (83.76%). A percentage of people were illiterate (9.50%), especially in the homemaker group (61.39%). In general, 8.71% and 2.98% of participants suffered from IHD and MI, respectively. After adjusting the socio-demographic and other characteristics, there was no significant association between occupational status and CVDs. Conclusion: As evidenced by the obtained results, activity status was not associated with the risk of IHD and MI.

“…Como sucede en otros estudios la inactividad física fue mayor durante el tiempo libre, entendiendo que la mayoría de los participantes del estudio son operarios existe una mayor probabilidad de ser activo físicamente durante el trabajo o el transporte (16); la evaluación de la práctica de actividad física está mediada por el dominio, considerado como las oportunidades de la vida cotidiana donde las personas puedan realizarla, por ello, el tipo de ocupación de la persona determina si se es activo en el ámbito laboral o en el tiempo libre.…”

Resumen-El riesgo cardiovascular se define como la probabilidad que tiene un sujeto de presentar una enfermedad cardiovascular. Objetivo: Determinar los factores de riesgo cardiovascular en trabajadores de una empresa productora de grasas y aceites vegetales. Materiales y Métodos: Estudio de corte transversal en 113 trabajadores. Se indagó sobre variables sociodemográficas, consumo de tabaco y de alcohol, número de días y porciones de frutas y verduras a la semana, antecedentes personales de enfermedad cardiovascular y niveles de actividad física. Además, se midió la talla y el peso para definir el índice de masa corporal. Para el análisis de los datos se utilizó la base de datos SPSS versión 22, se determinó la correlación entre el promedio del índice de masa corporal y el consumo energético en MET a través del coeficiente de correlación lineal. Resultados: El 44,2% presentaron sobrepeso, un 64,6% de los empleados consumen alcohol y el 56,6% no cumplen las recomendaciones de actividad física en el tiempo libre. El promedio de días consumo de frutas es de 2,8 días y el número de porciones de 1,6 frutas. Se encontró una correlación negativa y significativa (-0,18; p=0,04) entre el consumo energético durante el dominio laboral y el índice de masa corporal. Conclusión: La detección precoz de los factores de riesgo cardiovasculares es relevante porque permite la implementación de programas de promoción de la salud y prevención en el ámbito laboral.

“…Valuation of the public health system, its needs, its effectiveness and efficiency and its role in the social structure is a highly complicated task. But this tendency to reduce investment in primary care is not justified by an analysis of the social needs expressed by health demand, because demand for primary care is high, and increasingly so among those with a poorer perception of their state of health [3]. Nor is it supported by the study of people's preferences, or by the results of the impact on health at each care level in the population as a whole, because as far as it is known, investment in primary care is accompanied by more efficient health results [4].…”

A study of the user's perception of economic value in nursing visits to primary care by the method of contingent valuation

et al. 2011

BackgroundThe identification of the attribution of economic value that users of a health system assign to a health service could be useful in planning these services. The method of contingent valuation can provide information about the user's perception of value in monetary terms, and therefore comparable between services of a very different nature. This study attempts to extract the economic value that the subject, user of primary care nursing services in a public health system, attributes to this service by the method of contingent valuation, based on the perspectives of Willingness to Pay (WTP) and Willingness to Accept [Compensation] (WTA).Methods/DesignThis is an economic study with a transversal design. The contingent valuation method will be used to estimate the user's willingness to pay (WTP) for the care received from the primary care nurse and the willingness to accept [compensation] (WTA), were this service eliminated. A survey that meets the requisites of the contingent valuation method will be constructed and pilot-tested. Subsequently, 600 interviews will be performed with subjects chosen by systematic randomized sampling from among those who visit nursing at twenty health centers with different socioeconomic characteristics in the Community of Madrid. The characteristics of the subject and of the care received that can explain the variations in WTP, WTA and in the WTP/WTA ratio expressed will be studied. A theoretical validation of contingent valuation will be performed constructing two explanatory multivariate mixed models in which the dependent variable will be WTP, and the WTP/WTA relationship, respectively.DiscussionThe identification of the attribution of economic value to a health service that does not have a direct price at the time of use, such as a visit to primary care nursing, and the definition of a profile of "loss aversion" in reference to the service evaluated, can be relevant elements in planning, enabling incorporating patient preferences to health policy decision-making.
