Aims Chronic noise exposure associates with increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk;
however, the role of confounders and the underlying mechanism remain incompletely …

Noise has been found associated with annoyance, stress, sleep disturbance, and impaired
cognitive performance. Furthermore, epidemiological studies have found that environmental …

Background Traffic noise can induce chronic stress reactions and thereby elevate the risk of
cardiovascular disease. The responsible pathophysiological mechanisms are as yet …

Epidemiological studies have found that transportation noise increases the risk of
cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, with high-quality evidence for ischaemic heart …

Background: Exposure to acute noise can cause an increase in biological stress reactions,
which provides biological plausibility for a potential association between sustained noise …

Environmental noise is a well‐recognized health risk and part of the external exposome—
the World Health Organization estimates that 1 million healthy life years are lost annually in …

Epidemiological studies have provided evidence that traffic noise exposure is linked to
cardiovascular diseases such as arterial hypertension, myocardial infarction, and stroke …

Noise exposure modifies the function of multiple organs and systems. Acute noise exposure—
both in laboratory settings where traffic noise is simulated and in real-life working …

The association between noise and cardiovascular disease has been studied for several
decades and the weight of evidence clearly supports a causal link. Nevertheless, many …

Background Both physical and psychological health outcomes have been associated with
exposure to environmental noise. Noise sensitivity could have the same moderating effect …
