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 ...

Gender differences in occupational exposure patterns [PDF]

, 2011
Objectives: The authors conducted a population-based survey to examine gender differences in occupational exposure patterns and to investigate whether any observed differences are due to: (a) gender differences in occupational distribution; and/or (b)

Occupational Exposure to Impulse Noise Associated With Shooting [PDF]

International Journal of Occupational Safety and Ergonomics, 2011
Shooting training is associated with exposure to a considerable amount of unique noise. We wanted to evaluate noise exposure during such training. Our observations especially apply to professional sport shooters, but they are also valid for shooting coaches/instructors.

Occupational noise and age: A longitudinal study of hearing sensitivity as a function of noise exposure and age in South African gold mine workers

South African Journal of Communication Disorders, 2020
Background A relationship exists between occupational noise exposure and age, which remains poorly understood. Objectives The aim of this study was to establish the relationship between hearing loss and age over time.

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

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 ...

Workplace noise exposure and the prevalence and 10-year incidence of age-related hearing loss.

PLoS ONE, 2021
There is paucity of population-based data on occupational noise exposure and risk of age-related hearing loss. Therefore, we assessed cross-sectional and longitudinal associations of past workplace noise exposure with hearing loss in older adults.

Impact of daily noise exposure monitoring on occupational noise exposures in manufacturing workers [PDF]

International Journal of Audiology, 2013
Despite the use of hearing protection devices (HPDs), noise induced hearing loss (NIHL) remains one of the most prevalent occupational conditions. A new technology allows for daily monitoring of noise exposures under HPDs. We report on an intervention employing the voluntary use of this technology in a worksite setting.Volunteers were fitted with a ...
