| Resumen |
Aspects of lifestyle and cardiovascular (CV) risk factors in blood were compared in 22 executives and a matched sample of non-executives in an insurance company in Norway. Executives travelled more and worked more hours than non-executives, but smoking habits, levels of physical activity, diet habits and blood pressure were comparable in the two groups, as were coronary risk indicators in blood. While results suggest that the executive lifestyle is not associated with an elevated CV risk, the high levels of total cholesterol and of a compound atherogenic index in both groups suggest that continued action by the occupational health service is required. |
