Association between occupational noise exposure duration and heart rate variability among Chinese adults: The role of plasma miRNAs.

Environmental Pollution, 2023
We aimed to explore the association between occupational noise exposure duration and heart rate variability (HRV) and the underlying mechanism. A total of 449 subjects in a manufacturing company in Wuhan, China were included in our study and six ...

Too loud! Non-occupational noise exposure causes hearing loss

180th Meeting of the Acoustical Society of America, 2021
That occupational noise exposure causes hearing loss has long been known, but non-occupational noise exposure was not recognized as a problem until the 1960s.

The Critical Intensity for Occupational Noise

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1980
Decades of medical examinations have shown that large-scale risks of hearing defects exist not only from 90 dB(A) upwards, but even from 85 dB(A) upwards. This experience is confirmed by the analysis of 25,000 tone threshold audiograms and by the results of experimental hearing fatigue tests.

Occupational noise in printing companies

Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2010
The extent of noise in five printing companies in Novi Sad, Serbia, was determined using TES-1358A Sound Analyzer with RS-232 Interface. The data on equivalent A-level (dBA), as well as, maximum and minimum sound pressure levels were collected. It was found that folders and offset printing units are the predominant noise sources, with the average L (eq)

Noise and Occupational Medicine

Journal of Occupational & Environmental Medicine, 2019
: Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) represents the second most common occupational disease in the United States. Although the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has promulgated an occupational noise exposure standard and associated recordkeeping requirements, OSHA inspections increasingly document practices that violate both the noise

Occupational Noise Exposure and the Risk of Hypertension

Epidemiology, 2013
Noise may increase the risk of hypertension, but findings are inconsistent with respect to both community and occupational noise exposure. We used a large sample of noise-exposed industrial trades to analyze the association of occupational noise exposure and the risk of hypertension.The 7-year prospective cohort study included 145,190 workers from 625 ...
