OBJECTIVES: The effect modifying impact of annoyance due to aircraft noise and road traffic
noise on the relationships between the aircraft noise level and road traffic noise level on the …

Objectives This review assessed the confounding effect of one traffic-related exposure
(noise or air pollutants) on the association between the other exposure and cardiovascular …

Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between road traffic
noise exposure at home and the prevalence of hypertension. Methods: We conducted cross …

Although the auditory effects of noise on humans have been established, the non-auditory
effects are not so well established. The emerging links between noise and cardiovascular …

Aims Aircraft noise disturbs sleep, and long-term exposure has been shown to be
associated with increases in the prevalence of hypertension and an overall increased risk …

In Sweden, as in many other European countries, traffic noise is an important environmental
health issue. At present, almost two million people are exposed to average noise levels …

There is general consensus that environmental pollution and non-chemical stressors
contribute to the incidence and prevalence of chronic noncommunicable disease (eg …

Background: Short-term exposure to air pollution has been associated with changes in
blood pressure (BP) and emergency department visits for hypertension, but little is known …

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: Long-term exposure to traffic-related air pollution may increase blood pressure
(BP) and induce hypertension. However, evidence supporting these associations is limited …
