Associations of road traffic noise with cardiovascular diseases and mortality: Longitudinal results from UK Biobank and meta-analysis.

Environmental Research, 2022
BACKGROUND Epidemiological evidence suggests potential associations of road traffic noise exposure with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality, but uncertainty remains.

Associations of PM2.5 and road traffic noise with mental health: Evidence from UK Biobank.

Environmental Research, 2021
BACKGROUND The associations of atmospheric particulate matter with diameters of 2.5 μm or less (PM2.5) and road traffic noise with mental disorders in men and women are not well studied.

Long-term exposure to ambient air pollution and road traffic noise and asthma incidence in adults: The Danish Nurse cohort.

Environment International, 2021
BACKGROUND Ambient air pollution is likely a risk factor for asthma, and recent evidence suggests the possible relevance of road traffic noise. OBJECTIVES We examined the associations of long-term exposure to air pollution and road traffic noise with ...

Road traffic noise impacts sleep continuity in suburban residents: Exposure-response quantification of noise-induced awakenings from vehicle pass-bys at night.

Science of the Total Environment, 2021
Nocturnal traffic noise has been associated with adverse health outcomes in exposed residents. Precise quantification of traffic noise effects on sleep is thus of great importance.

Road traffic noise: self-reported noise annoyance versus GIS modelled road traffic noise exposure

Journal of Environmental Monitoring, 2011
self-reported road traffic noise annoyance is commonly used in epidemiological studies for assessment of potential health effects. Alternatively, some studies have used geographic information system (GIS) modelled exposure to road traffic noise as an objective parameter. The aim of this study was to analyse the association between noise exposure due to

Hypertension and Road Traffic Noise Exposure

Journal of Occupational & Environmental Medicine, 2007
The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between road traffic noise exposure at home and the prevalence of hypertension.We conducted cross-sectional analyses in a large random sample (N=40,856) of inhabitants of Groningen City, and in a subsample (the Prevention of Renal and Vascular End-Stage Disease [PREVEND]) study cohort; N=8592 ...

Spatially differentiated profiles for road traffic noise pollution across a state road network

, 2021
Diverse traffic noise profiles across road networks remain largely undifferentiated using standardised noise indicators. To address this issue, this work derives two supplementary noise indicators for road traffic noise. The first supplementary indicator

Road traffic noise

Reviews of Physics in Technology, 1972
Following the publication of the Wilson report in 1963 much attention has been drawn to solving problems connected with road traffic noise. In this article the relevant noise level standards are described and the phenomenon of noise from individual vehicles and taffic as a whole is discussed.

Road traffic noise annoyance in Amsterdam

International Archives of Occupational and Environmental Health, 1985
3445 persons living in Amsterdam (1507 male and 1938 female), aged 41-43 years, participated in an investigation in which the relationship was studied between the (measured) road traffic noise in front of the houses in which the participants lived, and the (reported) resulting annoyance and sleep disturbance.

Exposure to road traffic noise: Annoyance, perception and associated factors among Brazil's adult population.

Science of the Total Environment, 2019
BACKGROUND One of the major environmental problems of the modern world is noise. A health-related marker of environmental noise exposure that can be considered a predictor of annoyance is noise sensitivity.
