I recently read an article that cites study findings that impatience & hostility (2 of several "Type A personality" traits) as having more influence on the presence of hypertension & the occcurence of myocardial infarctions that just about any other factor -- including obesity, high cholesterol, diabetes, & inactivity. I'll take a look to see if I can locate the publication I read this in to report the study source.
