Medical debates and musical interpretations of vibroacoustic disease in Vieques, Puerto Rico
In 2001 the band Cornucopia (Puerto Rican musicians Jorge Castro and Claudio Chea) released an album called "Vibroacústica". The title refers to a disease that allegedly afflicts people who have been exposed to loud noise over long periods of time.

The vibroacoustic disease--an emerging pathology.
Vibroacoustic disease (VAD) is the clinical manifestation of a systemic disease that develops after long-term exposure to noise (> or = 10 yr) which is characterized by large pressure amplitude (> or = 90 dB SPL) within the lower frequency bands (< or = 500 Hz). Noisy environments produce more widespread systemic effects than initially suspected.

The human pericardium in vibroacoustic disease.
One of the main features of vibroacoustic disease (VAD) is the proliferation of the extra-cellular matrix which induces cardiovascular morphological and dynamic changes, and has been evaluated through echo-Doppler. While all subjects exposed to large pressure amplitude (> or =90 dB SPL) and low frequency (< or =500 Hz) (LPALF) for at least 15 yr have ...

Vibroacoustic disease: some forensic aspects.
Vibroacoustic disease (VAD) is an insidious environmental entity caused by occupational exposure to large pressure amplitude and low frequency (LPALF) noise (> or = 90 dB SPL, < or = 500 Hz). Significant disabilities may result, and issues of worker's compensation should be openly discussed and settled.

The palmo-mental reflex in vibroacoustic disease.
Vibroacoustic disease (VAD), is a multisystemic nosological entity, caused by occupational exposure to large pressure amplitude (> or = 90 dB SPL) and low frequency (< or = 500 Hz) (LPALF) noise. The most common neurological finding in patients with VAD is the palmomental reflex (PMR).

ERP P300 and brain magnetic resonance imaging in patients with vibroacoustic disease.
Subjects occupationally exposed to large pressure amplitude (> or = 90 dB SPL) and low frequency (< or = 500 Hz) (LPALF) noise for long term periods (>10 yr) can develop vibroacoustic disease (VAD). One of the earliest complaints of VAD patients deals with memory and attention disturbances.

Increase in CD8+ and CD4+ T lymphocytes in patients with vibroacoustic disease.
Some workers employed by the aviation industry are exposed to large pressure amplitude and low frequency (LPALF) noise (> or =90 dB SPL, < or = 500 Hz) and have developed vibroacoustic disease (VAD), a whole-body noise-induced pathology. Since VAD patients have an increased prevalence of respiratory and skin infections, we investigated whether these ...
