Noise Induced Work Places and Noise Related Occupational Risks [PDF]

open access: yesOccupational Medicine & Health Affairs, 2018
Noise is broadly defined as unwanted sound that generally prevents people from performing at maximum ability and efficiency. Following air and water pollution, noise pollution is the third most critical environmental subject. Noise can be industrial noise, military noise, traffic noise, other kinds of environmental sourced noises, etc.

Noise exposure in occupational setting associated with elevated blood pressure in China

open access: yesBMC Public Health, 2017
Background Hypertension is the primary out-auditory adverse outcome caused due to occupational noise exposure. This study investigated the associations of noise exposure in an occupational setting with blood pressure and risk of hypertension.

Dose - response relationship between noise exposure and the risk of occupational injury

open access: yesNoise and Health, 2015
Many workers worldwide experience fatality and disability caused by occupational injuries. This study examined the relationship between noise exposure and occupational injuries at factories in Korea. A total of 1790 factories located in northern Gyeonggi

Effects of occupational noise and dust exposure on fasting plasma glucose in workers

open access: yes环境与职业医学, 2023
BackgroundNoise and dust are the most widespread occupational hazards. Animal studies have shown that they may cause impaired fasting glucose (IFG) by disturbing glucose metabolism and impairing the function of pancreatic islet cells, which can lead to ...

Recoil-limited feedback cooling of single nanoparticles near the ground state in an optical lattice [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. A 103, 051701 (2021), 2020
We report on direct feedback cooling of single nanoparticles in an optical lattice to near their motional ground state. We find that the laser phase noise triggers severe heating of nanoparticles' motion along the optical lattice. When the laser phase noise is decreased by orders of magnitude, the heating rate is reduced and accordingly the occupation ...

Occupational noise induced vestibular malfunction? [PDF]

open access: yesOccupational and Environmental Medicine, 1992
This paper comprises a review of the evidence for the possibility that exposure to noise may damage the vestibular receptors in the internal ear as well as those in the cochlea. The review covers lay and medical publications, observations on patients, experimental studies, and compensation claims.

Consequences and Mechanisms of Noise‐Induced Cochlear Synaptopathy and Hidden Hearing Loss, With Focuses on Signal Perception in Noise and Temporal Processing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Noise‐induced synaptopathy (NIS) is largely reversible due to self‐repair. NIS and noise‐induced hidden hearing loss are two concepts with similarities and differences. The major hearing deficits in NIHHL are temporal processing disorders. The translation of animal data in NIS studies to humans is hindered by many factors.

Are occupational and environmental noises associated with periodontitis? Evidence from a Korean representative cross-sectional study

open access: yesBMC Public Health, 2021
Background Evidences have shown that noise could be a risk factor for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Since periodontitis and CVD are characterized by inflammation, it is reasonable to doubt that occupational/environmental noise is a risk factor ...

Recommendation of occupational exposure limits (2022–2023)

open access: yesEnvironmental and Occupational Health Practice, 2022
The Japan Society for Occupational Health (JSOH) recommends the Occupational Exposure Limits (OELs) as reference values for preventing adverse health effects on workers caused by occupational exposure to chemical substances, continuous or intermittent ...

Presbycusis: Pathology, Signal Pathways, and Therapeutic Strategy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In ARHL, the stria vascularis, acting as a cochlear battery, gradually loses its ability to maintain the endocochlear potential, leading to impaired hair cell function and progressive hearing loss. Single‐cell sequencing reveals age‐related cellular changes in the cochlea, providing insights into the underlying mechanisms of aging and potential ...
