Description: Abstract We aimed to study the association between the American Heart Association (AHA)’s cardiovascular health (CVH) score and job strain in the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil) baseline. We analyzed data from 11,351 active workers (aged 35–74 years) without overt cardiovascular disease and who had complete data. Job strain was assessed using the 17-item Brazilian version of the Swedish Job Demand-Control-Support Questionnaire. Clinical (fasting plasma glucose, total cholesterol and blood pressure) and lifestyle (diet, physical activity, smoking and body mass index) components of CVH score were assessed according to the AHA criteria. We used quasi-Poisson and multinomial regression models, adjusted for age, sex, race, educational level and income, and positive relative predicted score differences (rPSD) indicate higher predicted scores. Individuals with low skill discretion scores had lower global (rPSD: -1.8%; p=0.021) and lifestyle (rPSD: -3.6%; p=0.018) CVH scores. Participants with low decision authority (rPSD: -2.4%; p=0.029) and low social support scores (rPSD: -3.3%; p=0.001) also had lower lifestyle CVH scores. In conclusion, we found significant associations between job strain and CVH scores in this large multicenter sample.
