Occupational noise-induced hearing loss in China: a systematic review and meta-analysis

BMJ Open, 2020
Objective Most of the Chinese occupational population are becoming at risk of noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL). However, there is a limited number of literature reviews on occupational NIHL in China.

Association between occupational or environmental noise exposure and renal function among middle-aged and older Korean adults: a cross-sectional study

Scientific Reports, 2021
Exposure to occupational and environmental noise is closely linked to various auditory system diseases. Few studies have focused on the effect of noise exposure on the extra auditory system, especially the urinary system.

Occupational Noise: Auditory and Non-Auditory Consequences [PDF]

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2020
Occupational noise exposure accounts for approximately 16% of all disabling hearing losses, but the true value and societal costs may be grossly underestimated because current regulations only identify hearing impairments in the workplace if exposures result in audiometric threshold shifts within a limited frequency region.

Occupational Noise-Induced Hearing Loss

Journal of Occupational & Environmental Medicine, 2018
: Occupational hearing loss is preventable through a hierarchy of controls, which prioritize the use of engineering controls over administrative controls and personal protective equipment. The occupational and environmental medicine (OEM) physician plays a critical role in the prevention of occupational noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL).

The Combined Effect of Elevated Blood Pressure and Occupational Noise Exposure on Bilateral High-Frequency Hearing Loss

Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 2023
Noise exposure and hypertension are associated with hearing loss. Occupational noise exposure for more than 10 years may increase the risk of hearing loss by 29%.

Association of Occupational Noise Exposure and Incidence of Metabolic Syndrome in a Retrospective Cohort Study

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2022
Metabolic syndrome is one of the common causes of cardiovascular diseases and cancers. Although noise is an environmental factor to which people can be commonly exposed at work and in daily life, there are currently insufficient studies on the ...

Estimation of Occupational Noise–Induced Hearing Loss Using Kurtosis-Adjusted Noise Exposure Levels

Ear and Hearing, 2022
Objectives: Studies have shown that in addition to energy, kurtosis plays an important role in the assessment of hearing loss caused by complex noise.
