TLDR
The ICBEN Community Response to Noise (CRO2N) survey as discussed by the authors was the first attempt to measure community response to noise in nine languages for which a standardized empirical study protocol has been followed to select annoyance scale words.About:

Auditory and non-auditory effects of noise on health
Mathias Basner,Wolfgang Babisch,Adrian Davis,Adrian Davis,Mark Brink,Charlotte Clark,S.A. Janssen,Stephen Stansfeld +7 more
TL;DR: The importance of adequate noise prevention and mitigation strategies for public health is stressed, as Observational and experimental studies have shown that noise exposure leads to annoyance, disturbs sleep and causes daytime sleepiness.
Auditory and non-auditory eff ects of noise on health
Mathias Basner,Wolfgang Babisch,Adrian Davis,Mark Brink,Charlotte Clark,S.A. Janssen,Stephen Stansfeld +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors stress the importance of adequate noise prevention and mitigation strategies for public health and stress that noise exposure leads to annoyance, disturbs sleep and causes daytime sleepiness, aff ects patient outcomes and staff performance in hospitals, increases the occurrence of hypertension and cardiovascular disease, and impairs cognitive performance in schoolchildren.

WHO Environmental Noise Guidelines for the European Region: A Systematic Review on Environmental Noise and Annoyance
TL;DR: The increase of %HA in newer studies of aircraft, road and railway noise at comparable Lden levels of earlier studies point to the necessity of adjusting noise limit recommendations.
