Noise emitted from road, rail and air traffic and their effects on sleep
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:

Burden of Disease from Environmental Noise: Quantification of Healthy Life Years Lost in Europe
TL;DR: Policy-makers and their advisers are provided with technical support in their quantitative risk assessment of environmental noise and can use the procedure for estimating burdens presented here to prioritize and plan environmental and public health policies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiovascular effects of environmental noise exposure
TL;DR: 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.

Environmental stressors and cardio-metabolic disease: part II-mechanistic insights.
Thomas Münzel,Mette Sørensen,Tommaso Gori,Frank P. Schmidt,Xiaoquan Rao,Frank R. Brook,Lung Chi Chen,Robert D. Brook,Sanjay Rajagopalan +8 more
TL;DR: A considerable body of evidence suggests that these environmental agents induce low-grade inflammation, oxidative stress, vascular dysfunction, and autonomic nervous system imbalance, thereby facilitating the development of diseases such as hypertension and diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Single and combined effects of air, road, and rail traffic noise on sleep and recuperation.
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of air, road and rail traffic noise on sleep and recuperation were investigated for 11 consecutive nights, which included eight noise exposure nights and one noise-free control night.

Noise, sleep and poor health: Modeling the relationship between road traffic noise and cardiovascular problems.
Aslak Fyhri,Gunn Marit Aasvang +1 more
TL;DR: The analysis showed no relationship between neither noise exposure nor response to noise and cardiovascular problems, and showed strong links among pseudoneurological complaints, annoyance and sleeping problems, thus pointing to the importance of including information on psychosomatic disorders and mild psychological problems in future studies looking at potential health effects of noise.

Effects of sleep loss, time of day, and extended mental work on implicit and explicit learning of sequences.
TL;DR: The authors explored the effects of 2 different stressors, loss of sleep and mental fatigue, on implicit learning in a serial-response time (RT) task to suggest that sleep deprivation induces specific risks for automatic, skill-based behavior that are not present in consciously controlled performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of train noise on sleep for people living in houses bordering the railway line
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the disturbance of sleep by train and road noises through in situ physiological recordings and found that three times as many disturbances due to the noise from road traffic were found as there were due to train noise.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sleep disturbances caused by vibrations from heavy road traffic
TL;DR: It could be concluded that vibration exposure levels near the recommendation made in ISO-standard 2631 for the awake state disturb sleep in man.
Report of a field study on aircraft noise and sleep disturbance.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the influence of non-acoustical factors upon disturbance of people's sleep including their age, sex and personal characteristics, their general views about the neighbourhood, their perceptions about sleep quality, and the variation of these relationships with time of night.
Noise-Induced Sleep Disturbance in Residences Near Two Civil Airports
TL;DR: In this article, a large-scale field study of noise-induced sleep disturbance was conducted in the vicinities of Stapleton International Airport (DEN) and DIA in anticipation of the closure of the former and opening of the latter.
