Validity of self-reported occupational noise exposure [PDF]
Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 2009 Objectives In epidemiological studies the validity of self-reported occupational data is an important issue as the exposure assessment based on such data is a major source of bias in the risk estimation. Methods A validation study was conducted ...

Occupational Noise Exposure and Risk of Acoustic Neuroma [PDF]
American Journal of Epidemiology, 2007 A small number of prior epidemiologic studies of occupational noise exposure based on self-report have suggested an association with acoustic neuroma. The goal of the present study was to further examine the association between noise exposure and acoustic neuroma by using an objective measure of exposure in the form of a job exposure matrix. A total of

Occupational Exposure to Noise Pollution in Anesthesiology
Brazilian Journal of Anesthesiology, 2012 The harmful effects of workplace noise pollution are well known and described in the literature. The effects of prolonged exposure to noise in areas demanding high level of concentration, such as operating rooms, depend on the variability of individual responses and intensity of different generation sources. The aim of this paper is to present a review

Effects of Occupational Noise Exposure on Blood Pressure [PDF]
Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 2003 We measured 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure and 16-hour noise exposure continuously for 20 automobile workers, and used linear mixed-effects regression models to estimate transient and sustained effects of noise exposure on blood pressure. The occupational noise levels of the high-exposure workers with 85 +/- 8 dBA were significantly higher than ...
