Turbulence and Effects On health in the Specific situation of Exposure to Air Pollution
Author(s): Quinton De Cruse*
Understanding the relative impact of environmental noise on health in comparison to other environmental
stressors is crucial for public health policy and planning. The main environmental stressor that contributes to
cardiovascular morbidity and mortality is air pollution. The associations between environmental noise and air
pollution and health are examined in this narrative review of studies. Included were studies of mortality, cognitive
outcomes, myocardial infarction, stroke, and hypertension. After adjusting for air pollution, the findings suggest
that there are independent effects on cardiovascular outcomes of environmental noise from road traffic, aircraft,
and, in fewer studies, railway noise. Air pollution is the primary environmental causes of disability adjusted life
years lost (DALYs), according to comparative burden of disease studies. In Europe, envir.. View More»
