Key result
Regular overtime work was associated with changes in cardiovascular functions, particularly affecting the low frequency component of heart rate variability during work.
Why the study?
Does regular overtime work affect cardiovascular functions measured by blood pressure and heart rate variability in male engineers?

Does regular overtime work affect cardiovascular functions measured by blood pressure and heart rate variability in male engineers?
Regular overtime work is associated with changes in cardiovascular functions, particularly the low frequency component of heart rate variability, suggesting a potential early marker for chronic cardiovascular effects.
Park et al. (2001) conducted a cross-sectional in Cardiovascular functions (n=238). Regular overtime work was evaluated on Blood pressure and heart rate variability. Regular overtime work was associated with changes in cardiovascular functions, particularly affecting the low frequency component of heart rate variability during work.
