Many epidemiological studies have shown that noise exposure is a risk factor causing adverse health effects, for example cardiovascular diseases, coronary heart diseases. WHO/EU assessed levels of evidence for associations between noise exposure and health effects and confirmed a causal link between road traffic noise and ischemic heart disease (IHD). In Japan, however, there are few studies investigating the health effects due to traffic noise, although some studies conducted around a military airport exist. We carried out a questionnaire survey of 6,000 older residents at Katsushika Japan and verified whether road traffic noise induced IHD at Japanese dwelling environment. Data of 2,736 respondents were taken into multiple logistic regression analysis and following results were obtained. Road traffic noise level (measured by Lden) was correlated with prevalence rate of IHD (65–70 dB: OR=1.76 (0.92–3.34), 70 dB–: OR=1.95 (1.01–3.75)) and sleep disturbance had a relationship with IHD (OR=1.76 (1.17–2.63)). The relationship between noise exposure and health effects may arise since noise exposure causes a sleep disturbance and sleep disturbance leads adverse health effects. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
