          Abstract

          Resumen Introducción: Actualmente se está produciendo un acusado cambio demográfico en el que se observa un envejecimiento en la población activa. De hecho alrededor del 50% tiene 45 o más años. Resultando por tanto un desafío y una necesidad para nuestra sociedad el tratar de mejorar la calidad de vida de los trabajadores de mediana edad. Objetivo: Identificar y evaluar si la realización de intervenciones en el lugar de trabajo mejoran la calidad de vida de los trabajadores de mediana edad. Metodología: Se ha realizado una revisión bibliográfica sistemática basada en la literatura publicada desde el 2004 hasta diciembre de 2018 en varias bases de datos científicas: MEDLINE, EMBASE, LILACS, SCIELO y SCOPUS. Resultados: La búsqueda produjo un total de 372 registros y tras la aplicación de la fórmula de búsqueda y criterios de exclusión e inclusión, se seleccionaron un total de 11 artículos (10 ensayos clínicos y 1 estudio de cohortes). Se evidenciaron resultados estadísticamente significativos en distintas intervenciones en el lugar de trabajo que lograron mejorar la calidad de vida de los trabajadores. Conclusiones: La evidencia recopilada en esta revisión sistemática resulta consistente respecto a la capacidad que tienen las intervenciones que fomentan la salud y el bienestar en el lugar de trabajo para mejorar la calidad de vida de los trabajadores de mediana edad. Sin embargo sería recomendable la realización de nuevos estudios para poder ampliar este campo de conocimiento.

          Abstract Introduction: There is currently a marked demographic change in which the active population is in aging process. Actually around 50% is 45 or older. It is therefore a challenge and a necessity for our society to try to improve the quality of life of middle-aged workers. Objective: To identify and evaluate if the implementation of interventions improve the quality of life of middle-aged workers at the workplace. Methods: A systematic review based on the literature published since 2004 until December 2018 has been carried out in several scientific databases: MEDLINE, EMBASE, LILACS, SCIELO and SCOPUS. Results: 372 records were obtained and a total of 11 articles were selected (10 clinical trials and 1 cohort study) after the search formula application and the exclusion and inclusion criteria. There were statistically significant results in different workplace interventions that managed to improve worker's quality of life. Conclusions: The evidence compiled in this systematic review is consistent with the capacity of interventions that promote health and well-being at the workplace to improve the quality of life of middle-aged workers. It would however, be advisable to carry out new studies in order to expand this field of knowledge.

              Job strain and ambulatory blood pressure: a meta-analysis and systematic review.

              We reviewed evidence of the relationship between job strain and ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) in 29 studies (1985-2012). We conducted a quantitative meta-analysis on 22 cross-sectional studies of a single exposure to job strain. We systematically reviewed 1 case-control study, 3 studies of cumulative exposure to job strain, and 3 longitudinal studies. Single exposure to job strain in cross-sectional studies was associated with higher work systolic and diastolic ABP. Associations were stronger in men than women and in studies of broad-based populations than those with limited occupational variance. Biases toward the null were common, suggesting that our summary results underestimated the true association. Job strain is a risk factor for blood pressure elevation. Workplace surveillance programs are needed to assess the prevalence of job strain and high ABP and to facilitate workplace cardiovascular risk reduction interventions.
