TLDR
The equivalent noise level seems to be a suitable predictor for subjectively evaluated sleep quality but not for physiological sleep disturbances, where physiological sleep parameters were most severely affected by rail noise.About:

Environmental noise and sleep disturbances: A threat to health?
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the effect of environmental noise pollution on sleep quality and subjective sleep quality, and propose a means that should be proposed to avoid at all costs of sleep disruptions caused by environmental noise.

Annoyance evaluation due to overall railway noise and vibration in Pisa urban areas.
TL;DR: The results show the limitations of traditional noise mapping for railway epidemiological studies based exclusively on ordinary transits and confirm the role of vibrations as enhancing factor for disturbance.

TL;DR: The impact of all major transportation noise sources on cardiovascular diseases is demonstrated, including mid-range IR levels at night, which are potentially more harmful than continuous noise levels of the same average level.
Journal ArticleDOI
Road traffic noise, sleep and mental health.
TL;DR: The results suggest that road traffic noise may be associated with poorer mental health among subjects with poor sleep, and individuals withpoor sleep quality may be more vulnerable to effects of road traffic Noise on mental health than individuals with better sleep quality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Autonomic arousals related to traffic noise during sleep.
TL;DR: Cardiac responses did not habituate to traffic noise within the night and may therefore play a key role in promoting traffic noise induced cardiovascular disease, more likely for responses accompanied by awakenings than for situations without awakenings.

A Manual of Standardized Terminology, Techniques and Scoring System for Sleep Stages of Human Subjects.
TL;DR: Techniques of recording, scoring, and doubtful records are carefully considered, and Recommendations for abbreviations, types of pictorial representation, order of polygraphic tracings are suggested.
Directive 2003/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present technical prescriptions concerning the design and construction of agricultural or forestry tractors, as regards the rollover protection structures, as well as the approximation of the laws of the Member States to enable the EC typeapproval procedure provided for in Directive 2003/37/EC to be applied in respect of each type of tractor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Annoyance from transportation noise: Relationships with exposure metrics DNL and DENL and their confidence intervals
TL;DR: Better estimates of the confidence intervals due to the improved model of the relationship between annoyance and noise exposure are provided, which is easier to use for practical calculations than the model itself.
