Noise has been associated with important cardiovascular health problems, particularly hypertension.[16][17][18]

- Chronic exposure to high noise levels in the workplace has shown correlations to increased resting blood pressure. [1][2]

Noise levels of 50 dB(A) or greater at night may also increase the risk of myocardial infarction by chronically elevating cortisol production.[19][20][21]

Roadway noise levels are sufficient to constrict blood flow and lead to elevated blood pressure.[3][4]

- Noise from transportation has been shown to increase blood pressure in individuals within the surrounding residential areas, with railways causing the greatest cardiovascular effects.[3][4]

Vasoconstriction can result from elevated adrenaline levels or through medical stress reactions.

- The mental health of children is negatively impacted as a result of noise pollution, this is a result of a reduction in time spent outdoors and engaging in physical activity.[3][5]
