Occupational exposure to noise and hypertension in pilots [PDF]
International Journal of Environmental Health Research, 2005 The role of occupational exposure to noise as a hypertension risk factor has not been established sufficiently. The aim of the study is to evaluate whether chronic exposure to different levels of noise in two groups of pilots, operating with two types of aircraft, could be a risk for hypertension, what relevance the parameters (intensity, duration and ...
