TTTday window: Intra-week work stress in financial employees' cardiovascular biomarker trajectories.
Article in SSM - population health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objectives: This study aims to investigate the time-dependent pattern of employees' work stress responses. It seeks to determine whether there is a day-of-the-week effect in employees' physiological reactions to workplace stressors on an intra-week scale. Methods: Utilizing seven-year (2017-2023) biometric data from financial sector employees in Eastern China, we analyzed the association between daily stock returns and cardiovascular biomarkers. A counterfactual analysis during holiday periods was conducted to isolate work-cycle-specific effects from general biological rhythms. Results: Declines in company stock prices significantly elevated employees' systolic blood pressure and blood lipids from Tuesdays to Thursdays (TTTday), with the effect peaking on Tuesdays, remaining significant on Wednesdays, and failing to reach statistical significance on Thursdays. No significant effects were observed on Mondays or Fridays. Holiday-period analyses confirmed this TTTday vulnerability window as a work-cycle-specific phenomenon. Conclusions: Employees exhibit rhythmic variations in effort and recovery on the sub-weekly scale, and this leads to varying degrees of physiological responses to workplace stress during the workweek.
