Background Road traffic noise has well-documented effects on cardiovascular, respiratory,
and metabolic health. Numerous studies have reported long-term associations of urban …

Studies have indicated that transportation noise is associated with higher cardiovascular
mortality, whereas evidence of noise as a risk factor for respiratory and cancer mortality is …

Background Most epidemiological noise studies consider 24 h average noise exposure
levels. Our aim was to exploratively analyze the impact of noise exposure at different time …

Most studies published to date consider single noise sources and the reported noise metrics
are not informative about the peaking characteristics of the source under investigation. Our …

Environmental noise can induce detrimental health effects such as cardiovascular disease
(CVD). The relationship between vehicular traffic noise pollution and CVD was investigated …

We aimed to update the evidence-base of long-term noise exposures from road, rail, and
aircraft traffic on both non-accidental and cardiovascular mortality. A systematic review and …

Transportation noise is a growing public health concern worldwide and epidemiological
evidence has linked road traffic noise with mortality. However, incongruent effect estimates …

Aims Road traffic noise has been associated with hypertension but evidence for the long-
term effects on hospital admissions and mortality is limited. We examined the effects of long …

Background Death from cardiovascular diseases (CVD) has been associated with
transportation noise. This nationwide cohort, with state-of-the-art exposure assessment …

Motor vehicles are the dominant source of both air pollution and noise in many communities.
Increasing epidemiologic evidence links chronic traffic noise exposure with adverse …
