Noise exposure in occupational setting associated with elevated blood pressure in China
BACKGROUND Hypertension is the primary out-auditory adverse outcome caused due to occupational noise exposure. This study investigated the associations of noise exposure in an occupational setting with blood pressure and risk of hypertension. METHODS A total of 1,390 occupational noise-exposed workers and 1399 frequency matched non-noise-exposed subjects were recruited from a cross-sectional ...
متن کاملEffects of occupational noise exposure on blood pressure.
We measured 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure and 16-hour noise exposure continuously for 20 automobile workers, and used linear mixed-effects regression models to estimate transient and sustained effects of noise exposure on blood pressure. The occupational noise levels of the high-exposure workers with 85 +/- 8 dBA were significantly higher than those of the low-exposure workers with 59 +/- 4...
متن کاملOccupational lead exposure and blood pressure.
BACKGROUND To assess the relation between occupational lead exposure and elevated blood pressure with consideration of a possible confounding effect by noise exposure. MATERIALS AND METHOD Some 112 male and 110 female workers at two lead battery manufacturing factories were recruited for this 1992 study in Taiwan. Study participants received regular physical examinations, including standard m...
متن کاملOccupational exposure to impulse noise associated with shooting.
Shooting training is associated with exposure to a considerable amount of unique noise. We wanted to evaluate noise exposure during such training. Our observations especially apply to professional sport shooters, but they are also valid for shooting coaches/instructors. We collected acoustic signals in 10-, 25- and 50-m as well as open-air shooting ranges. The recorded material was analysed wit...
متن کاملMissile-related Lead Exposure and Blood Pressure in Patients with Retained Pellets in the Craniomaxillofacial Region
Background: Environmental and occupational lead exposures are known to cause an elevated blood pressure but can this concept be applied to missile-related lead exposure? Methods: We implemented a controlled, cohort study design to examine study samples with long-standing missiles in craniomaxillofacial region using atomic absorption spectrophotometry and standard sphygmomanometry to measure ...
