Abstract
Conclusion Men with job strain and the Arg389Arg polymorphism were more often on antihypertensive treatment than other men. Significant interactions between the Arg389Gly polymorphism and aspects of job stress are described, but the absolute blood pressure differences are small. Considering the commonness of the polymorphism, stress, and hypertension further studies are indicated.
