Journal Article
Health effects caused by noise : Evidence in the literature from the past 25 years
H. Ising,Barbara Kruppa +1 more
TL;DR: Noise stress hypothesis chronic stress hormone dysregulations as well as increases of established endogenous risk factors of ischaemic heart diseases have been observed under long-term environmental noise exposure and an increased risk of myocardial infarction is to be expected.
Journal Article
Noise-Induced Endocrine Effects and Cardiovascular Risk.
TL;DR: Chronic noise exposure of animals on a diet with suboptimal magnesium content led to increase of connective tissue and calcium, and decrease of magnesium in the myocardium, and these changes were correlated to noradrenaline and normal ageing.
Journal ArticleDOI
The incidence of myocardial infarction and its relation to road traffic noise— the Berlin case-control studies
TL;DR: The hypothesis that prolonged exposure to road traffic noise causes ischaemic heart disease (IHD) was tested in two case-control studies including a cross-sectional study of middle-aged men and in a subsample of men who had not moved within the past 15 y.
Journal ArticleDOI
Subjective work noise : a major risk factor in myocardial infarction
TL;DR: The relative risk for MI—adjusted for control variables (smoking, age, social status, etc.)—was found to increase significantly and steadily with noise category and was the second greatest risk factor for MI after smoking.
