Understanding the impact of psychosocial working conditions on workers ’ health: we have come a long way, but are we there yet?
This issue of the journal includes a meta-review, ie, a systematic review of systematic reviews, summarizing the published evidence on the associations between exposure to adverse psychosocial working conditions and risk of developing diseases or disorders during the past 20 years (1).

Cardiovascular health status of taxi/for-hire vehicle drivers in the United States: A systematic review
CONCLUSIONS: Rigorous and high quality research is needed to further investigate rates of cardiovascular health in this population. The complexity of data collection in this group presents challenges to this endeavor. The high prevalence of poor nutrition, limited physical activity, diabetes, and blood pressure across studies indicates an urgent need to address low rates of health care access at a policy level and to design targeted workplace interventions.PMID:34219688 | DOI:10.3233/WOR-213525

Genes, Vol. 12, Pages 815: A Genetic Study of Cerebral Atherosclerosis Reveals Novel Associations with NTNG1 and CNOT3

To examine the association of common single nucleotide polymorphisms with cerebral atherosclerosis severity, we conducted a genomewide association study (GWAS) using data collected as part of two community-based cohort studies in the United States, the Religious Orders Study (ROS) and Rush Memory and Aging Project (MAP). Both studies enroll older individuals and exclude participants with signs of dementia at baseline. From our analysis of 1325 particip...
