Background: Exposure to noise can increase biological stress reactions and that could
increase the risk of stress-related prenatal effects, including adverse obstetric outcomes;
however, the association between exposure to noise and adverse obstetric outcomes has
not been extensively explored. The objective of this review was to evaluate the evidence
between noise exposures and adverse obstetric outcomes, specifically preeclampsia,
gestational diabetes, and gestational hypertension. Materials and Methods: A systematic …

Background: Exposure to acute noise can cause an increase in biological stress reactions,
which provides biological plausibility for a potential association between sustained noise
exposure and stress-related health effects. However, the certainty in the evidence for an
association between exposures to noise on short-and long-term biomarkers of stress has not
been widely explored. The objective of this review was to evaluate the strength of evidence
between noise exposure and changes in the biological parameters known to contribute to …
