Association between job insecurity and cardiovascular diseases in workers with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Article in Scandinavian journal of work, environment & health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveThis study analyzes the association between job insecurity, measured by cumulative unemployment, and the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) among middle-aged workers with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
methodsWe utilized data from the National Health Insurance Service of Korea, focusing on patients with type 2 diabetes, aged 40-50 who were continuously employed in 2009-2010. Job insecurity was defined by cumulative unemployment in 2012-2016 and categorized as stable, partially stable, or unstable. Participants were followed until December 2023, with incident CVD as the primary outcome. Cox regression models estimated sex-stratified hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI), with additional subgroup and sensitivity analyses.
resultsAmong 128 704 participants (107 071 males and 21 633 females; median age 51 years), CVD occurred among 6.1% of males and 3.9% of females. Job insecurity was associated with an increased risk of CVD [males: HR 1.12 (95% CI 1.05-1.19) for partially stable, HR 1.25 (95% CI 1.16-1.34) for unstable; females: HR 1.00 (95% CI 0.85-1.19) for partially stable, HR 1.33 (95% CI 1.13-1.57) for unstable]. Subgroup analyses showed particularly elevated risks among low-income males and high-income females. By age, males aged 40-49 in the partially stable and unstable groups had increased CVD risks, while those aged 50-59 had the highest risk in the unstable group. Among females, significant associations appeared only in the 40-49 age group.
conclusionsAmong middle-aged workers with type 2 diabetes, prolonged job insecurity was significantly associated with an increased risk of CVD.
