Effort-reward imbalance at work assessed at midlife and prediabetes prevalence assessed 18 years later in a prospective cohort of white-collar workers.
Article in Annals of work exposures and health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesEvidence suggests that workers exposed to psychosocial stressors at work from the effort-reward imbalance (ERI) model are at increased risk for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, evidence about the effect of ERI on prediabetes is scarce. This study aimed to examine the association between effort-reward imbalance at work, glycated hemoglobin level and the prevalence of prediabetes in women and men from a prospective cohort study.
methodsThis study was conducted among 1354 white-collar workers followed for an average of 18 years. Effort-reward imbalance at work was measured in 1999 to 2001 using a validated instrument. Glycated hemoglobin was assessed at follow-up (2015 to 2018). Differences in mean glycated hemoglobin levels were estimated with linear models. Prediabetes prevalence ratios (PRs) were computed using robust Poisson regression models.
resultsIn women, those exposed to effort-reward imbalance at work at baseline had a higher prevalence of prediabetes (PR = 1.60, 95% confidence interval: 1.02-2.49) at follow-up following adjustment for sociodemographic, lifestyle-related, clinical, and other occupational risk factors. There was no difference in mean glycated hemoglobin levels.
conclusionAmong women, effort-reward imbalance at work at midlife was associated with the prevalence of prediabetes, at older age. Preventive workplace interventions aiming to reduce the prevalence of effort-reward imbalance at work may be effective to reduce the prevalence of prediabetes among women.
