The Association between Job Strain and Atrial Fibrillation: Results from the Swedish WOLF Study

Table 3

The estimated association between accumulated exposure to job strain and the risk of atrial fibrillation. Hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI), based on a subsample from the WOLF Norrland study population with baseline measure in 1996–1998 (t1) and repeated measure in 2000–2003 (t2), .
