Statistical evaluation of occupational noise exposure
Applied Acoustics, 2005Abstract Assessment of the risk involved in occupational noise exposure ( L EP,d ) is significantly affected by assumptions and uncertainties in setting true exposure conditions meaning that the calculation according to the European legislation might not be fully representative.

Occupational noise exposure and vestibular schwannoma: A case-control study in Sweden.
American Journal of Epidemiology, 2020It has been suggested that the association between self-reported occupational noise exposure and vestibular schwannoma (VS) found in several studies, represents recall bias.

Occupational noise exposure on construction sites
Applied Acoustics, 1985Abstract An exploratory study of the noise exposure of operators of plant and equipment on construction sites is described. Noise at the ears of operators has been measured in terms of maximum sound pressure levels and short-term values of the equivalent continuous A-weighted sound pressure level. It is shown that some operators are exposed to levels

No-occupational exposure to noise.
Giornale italiano di medicina del lavoro ed ergonomia, 2005The aim of the research was to evaluate the risk for the health of the disco-goers related to no-professional exposition to noise produced by speakers of discos. The noise has been measured in the middle of a disco using a class 1 phonometer. The exposition level was calculated using the formula quoted in the D.Lgs 277/91 (Italian legislative decree ...

Occupational Exposure to Noise and Ototoxic Organic Solvents
Archives of Environmental Health: An International Journal, 1994The objectives of this study were to review the literature on the effects of occupational exposure to organic solvents on the auditory system and to identify work settings in which exposure to these agents and to noise might occur. The criteria for selecting the chemicals were (a) evidence available that indicated that the chemicals may affect the ...

Occupational Noise Exposure during Endourologic Procedures
Journal of Endourology, 2008Long-term noise exposure in the workplace is a known cause of hearing loss. There has been limited study on the potential harm related to shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) or intracorporeal devices on patients and operating room personnel.We used a digital sound meter to measure decibel levels in the operating room during several endourologic procedures ...

Exposure to occupational noise and periodontitis in Korean workers
Journal of Periodontology, 2018AbstractBackgroundChronic exposure to occupational noise is reported to cause a wide range of health problems. But, there are no reports on studies investigating the association between noise exposure and periodontitis. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between occupational noise exposure and periodontitis in a nationally ...

Length of occupational noise exposure and blood pressure
International Archives of Occupational and Environmental Health, 1992A cross-sectional study was performed in the Paris area, with a total of 7901 subjects; 432 of them were exposed to occupational noise greater than or equal to 85 dBA. Noise was measured by the worksite physicians, and length of exposure was collected through interview. The subjects exposed to noise were mainly workers, their body mass index was higher

Occupational Noise Exposure of Operators of Heavy Trucks
American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal, 1998Over 400 measurements were taken across Canada to assess the noise exposure of truck operators. The exposure of the driver was evaluated using both 3-dB (Leq) and 5-dB (L5dB) exchange rates. Driving with windows closed and radio not operating resulted in the lowest exposure.
