“…It means that bus drivers stand a higher chance of developing a CV event compared to those in other occupational categories. There is a lot of relevant research in the relationship between professional driving and CVD [7,9,10,48-50]. Relative risk of MI of male bus drivers aged 30–74 of Stockholm in the Sweden during 1976–84 was 1.53 (95% CI 1.15-2.05) [48] and OR of MI of male bus drivers aged 45–70 during 1994–95 was 2.14 (95% CI 1.34~3.41) [9].…”

“…In a five-year longitudinal study for urban bus drivers [49], there was a positive correlation between the average number of hours of bus driving per week and blood pressure. And in a study measuring brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity [50], a risk of arteriosclerosis of long-term shift drivers was higher compared to that of regular drivers and short-term shift drivers. In this study as well, in the case of PDAR ≥ 0.5 and alternate days in shift pattern of duty, high risk of CV event rate and OR increased.…”

“…Esses dados corroboram estudos realizados no Brasil e no exterior 8,20 . Faria et al 21 observaram um aumento na prevalência de excesso de peso auto-relatado, sobrepeso e obesidade em 55 condutores de ônibus na cidade de Florianópolis após contratação e início da atividade de motorista, sendo este fator relacionado ao aumento de horas trabalhadas visando maiores rendimentos financeiros, fato que favoreceu o sedentarismo e a redução ao acesso a alimentos saudáveis.…”

“…A study by Chen et al that included professional bus drivers showed that long-term shift drivers had higher brachial-ankle pulse wave velocities (baPWV) than regular and short-term shift drivers. In addition, baPWV increased by 3.6 cm/s per 1-year increment in years of shift driving 21. According to the results of these studies, we assumed that a dose–response relationship between shift work and atherosclerosis exists.…”
