Association between exposure to multiple air pollutants, transportation noise and cause-specific mortality in adults in Switzerland [PDF]

Environmental Health, 2023
Background Long-term exposure to air pollution and noise is detrimental to health; but studies that evaluated both remain limited. This study explores associations with natural and cause-specific mortality for a range of air pollutants and transportation

Residential exposure to transportation noise and risk of incident atrial fibrillation: a pooled study of 11 prospective Nordic cohortsResearch in context [PDF]

The Lancet Regional Health. Europe
Summary: Background: Transportation noise has been linked with cardiometabolic outcomes, yet whether it is a risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF) remains inconclusive. We aimed to assess whether transportation noise was associated with AF in a large,

Road, tram and aircraft traffic noise annoyance related to the number of noise events and the equivalent sound level [PDF]

Archives of Acoustics, 2022
Noise mapping is based on long-term noise indicators, such as L N or L DEN. On the other hand, transportation intensity changes during a day (road traffic peak hours) or a year (more flights during holidays) and this variability is not reflected in ...
