Audiological, Phonatory and Cardiac Correlates of Individuals Exposed to Low-Frequency Noise or at Risk of Vibroacoustic Disease. [PDF]
Int Arch Otorhinolaryngol, 2023 Abstract Introduction Low-frequency noise (LFN) is hazardous to hearing. Long-term exposure to LFN may lead to vibroacoustic disease (VAD), which not only affects a specific organ but the physiological function of entire systems, such as the auditory, phonatory, respiratory, and cardiac systems.

Involvement of central airways in vibroacoustic disease patients [PDF]
Revista Portuguesa de Pneumologia (English Edition), 2006 Vibroacoustic disease (VAD) is the whole-body pathology caused by excessive exposure to LFN. For the past 25 years, it has been know that low frequency noise (LFN, < 500 Hz, including infrasound) targets the respiratory system. In LFN-exposed rodents, the morphological changes of respiratory tract tissue partially explained some respiratory symptoms ...

A disease in search of a cause: a study of self-citation and press release pronouncement in the factoid of wind farms causing “vibroacoustic disease”. [PDF]
, 2012 Background In recent years, claims have proliferated that wind turbines cause a large variety of diseases. Two of these, “Wind Turbine Syndrome” (WTS) and “Vibroacoustic disease” (VAD) are frequently mentioned.

A Vibroacoustic Model of Selected Human Larynx Diseases [PDF]
International Journal of Occupational Safety and Ergonomics, 2007 With the present development of digital registration and methods for processing speech it is possible to make effective objective acoustic diagnostics for medical purposes. These methods are useful as all pathologies and diseases of the human vocal tract influence the quality of a patient's speech signal.

An fMRI Study of the Effects of Vibroacoustic Stimulation on Functional Connectivity in Patients with Insomnia. [PDF]
Sleep Disord, 2020 Background. It is well known that vibratory and auditory stimuli from vehicles such as cars and trains can help induce sleep. More recent literature suggests that specific types of vibratory and acoustic stimulation might help promote sleep, but this has not been tested with neuroimaging.

European Journal of Pain, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 459-475, April 2023., 2023 Abstract Background and Objectives Persistent nonspecific back pain is now established as a biopsychosocial phenomenon that can be meaningfully affected by individuals' cognitions, emotions, lifestyle factors and family and social relationships. Recent guidelines for the treatment of adolescents with persistent nonspecific back pain, as well as those ...

Management of severe low back pain with a focused vibro‐percussion wave treatment: A case report
Clinical Case Reports, Volume 10, Issue 7, July 2022., 2022 Focused vibro‐percussive sound wave stimulation to the spine known as Khan Kinetic Treatment (KKT) has in this case, and previously through RCT studies, demonstrated improvement in pain and function with no adverse events. KKT is currently available in 10 countries.

O epitélio respiratório em ratos Wistar após 48 horas de exposição contínua ao ruído de baixa frequência [PDF]
, 2003 Previous studies show that exposure to low frequency noise (LFN) (≤500Hz, including infrasound) produces irreversible lesions in Wistar rat respiratory epithelia. Recovery periods for LFN-induced lesions have thus become an object of interest. Changes in
