Research

    Overview of research:
    We revealed the health effects of work related factors by epidemiological studies. (1) Shift workers have higher risks for hypertension, diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome. (2) The long term cohort study on the effects of work related factors on stroke and coronary heart diseases is being carried out. (3)The effects of psycho-social factors affected natural immune function and mental health were investigated.
