Cardiovascular effects of environmental noise exposure
TLDR
Evidence from epidemiologic studies demonstrates that environmental noise is associated with an increased incidence of arterial hypertension, myocardial infarction, and stroke, and the importance of noise mitigation strategies for public health is stressed.Abstract:
The role of noise as an environmental pollutant and its impact on health are being increasingly recognized. Beyond its effects on the auditory system, noise causes annoyance and disturbs sleep, and it impairs cognitive performance. Furthermore, evidence from epidemiologic studies demonstrates that environmental noise is associated with an increased incidence of arterial hypertension, myocardial infarction, and stroke. Both observational and experimental studies indicate that in particular night-time noise can cause disruptions of sleep structure, vegetative arousals (e.g. increases of blood pressure and heart rate) and increases in stress hormone levels and oxidative stress, which in turn may result in endothelial dysfunction and arterial hypertension. This review focuses on the cardiovascular consequences of environmental noise exposure and stresses the importance of noise mitigation strategies for public health.read more

TL;DR: No association between occupational noise and risk of overall stroke after adjustment for confounders is found in a pooled study of five Scandinavian cohorts (NordSOUND), however, the non-significantly increased risk of ischaemic stroke warrants further investigation.

The long-term effects of exposure to noise on the levels of thyroid hormones: A four-year repeated measures study.
TL;DR: In this paper, a four-year repeated measures study was performed among male workers of a thermal power plant industry from 2016 to 2020, where the 8-hour equivalent sound pressure levels (Leq) were measured at weighting channels of Z, A, and C for an octave-band including low (31.5, 63, 125 Hz), middle (250,500, and 1000 Hz), and high (2, 4, 8 kHz) frequency noises.
