What is recorded here?
Reported an inverse association between civil-service employment grade and coronary-heart-disease mortality in 17,530 London civil servants after 7.5 years of follow-up, only partly accounted for by measured risk factors.
Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.
Scientific scope
The record is the exact four-author 1978 Whitehall cohort paper. The observational association is not by itself proof of a single causal mechanism, applies to the studied workforce and period, and does not absorb Whitehall II or later follow-up analyses.
