Unfair and unreasonable bosses can increase their employees' blood pressure and raise the risk of a heart attack or stroke, British doctors said Tuesday.

英國的醫學工作者6月24日說，如果老板不公正、不通情達理的話，他的員工患高血壓、心臟病或中風的幾率就會增加。

A study by researchers at Buckinghamshire Chilterns University College in England found that the blood pressure of healthcare assistants was higher when they were supervised by someone they considered unreasonable.

一項由英格蘭白金漢郡奇特恩斯大學學院的研究者進行的研究發現，以醫護工作者為例，如果頂頭上司不近人情的話，他們的血壓通常就會比平時高出一些。

"An unfavorably perceived supervisor is a potent workplace stressor, which might have a clinically significant impact on supervisees' cardiovascular functioning," Dr Nadia Wager said in a report in the journal Occupational and Environmental Medicine.

職業和環境醫學雜志刊登了納迪亞?韋杰博士的研究報告，他在報告中說："一位不受歡迎的上司就是職場上的潛在壓力來源。從臨床醫學表現上看，就有可能對員工的心血管功能造成很大的影響。"

Cardiovascular disease kills an estimated 16.6 million people, or one-third of total global deaths, each year, according to the World Health Organization. High blood pressure, raised cholesterol levels, lack of exercise, smoking, excessive weight and a poor diet are leading risk factors.

根據世界衛生組織統計的數據，每年死于心血管疾病的人高達1660萬，也就是全世界死亡總人數的三分之一。造成高血壓的原因有很多，主要的有膽固醇升高、缺乏運動、吸煙、體重超標以及飲食質量底等等。
