Road traffic noise and cardiovascular risk
Noise and Health, 2008 Studies on the association between community noise and cardiovascular risk were subjected to a meta-analysis for deriving a common dose-effect curve. Peer-reviewed articles, objective assessment of exposure and outcome as well as control for confounding and multiple exposure categories were all necessary inclusion criteria.

Road Traffic Noise and Stroke: A Prospective Cohort Study [PDF]
Epidemiology, 2011 Epidemiological studies suggest that long-term exposure to road traffic noise increases the risk of cardiovascular disorders. The aim of this study was to investigate the relation between exposure to road traffic noise and risk for stroke, which has not been studied before.In a population-based cohort of 57,053 people, we identified 1881 cases of first-

Noise Reducers Effect on Road Traffic Noise [PDF]
Transactions of the Korean Society for Noise and Vibration Engineering, 2007 Community noise has been great concerned in public. The traffic noise in seoul, especially has been growing awareness for the quiet living environment. In this paper, the effect on the noise barrier in order to reduce highway noise near on the street has been examined. First barriers have been evaluated at 5 locations in the city.

Benefit measures for noise abatement: calculations for road and rail traffic noise [PDF]
European Transport Research Review, 2013 The aim of this study is to estimate monetary abatement values for road and rail traffic noise that can be used for policy purposes. However, a main objective is to critically discuss the assumptions necessary to convert the monetary values elicited in willingness to pay (WTP) studies to values than can be use for policy purposes. We employ the hedonic

Annoyance of Time-Varying Road-Traffic Noise
Archives of Acoustics, 2010 The aim of the study was to investigate how the time structure of a road-traffic affects the noise annoyance judgment. In a psychoacoustic experiment, the listeners judged noise annoyance of four road-traffic noise scenarios with identical numbers of vehicles and LAeq,T value but different time structure of a road traffic.

Study of the road traffic noise in Erzurum-Turkey [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Environmental Health Science & Engineering, 2012 Road traffic noise affects a large number of people, especially in urban areas and is generally a major source of complaints. This paper refers to a study of the problem of traffic noise on roads which have been transformed into streets in the city of Erzurum. Noise levels are measured and the impacts suffered by the community are documented.
