The association between noise exposure and blood pressure and ischemic heart disease: a meta-analysis.

TL;DR: It is concluded that noise exposure can contribute to the prevalence of cardiovascular disease and the evidence for a relation between noise exposure and ischemic heart disease is still inconclusive because of the limitations in exposure characterization, adjustment for important confounders, and the occurrence of publication bias.
