AB  - While there is good evidence that symptoms of depression determine prognosis of patients with coronary heart disease (CHD), the role of psychological stress is less clear.

A total of 577 patients with initial MI were included and self-reported psychological stressful events before their MI was assessed by a structured questionnaire.

Additionally, associations of stressful events with depression, anxiety and other cardiovascular risk factors were investigated. Unusual stress at work (26.5
