A randomized, double-blind, crossover study of acute low-level night-time road traffic noise: effects on vascular function, sleep, and proteomic signatures in healthy adults

Acute exposure to night-time road traffic noise leads to measurable changes in cardiovascular health parameters in healthy adults. These effects were linked to activation of molecular pathways of immune signalling. Plasma proteome changes were correlated to FMD changes (responders vs. non-responders), highlighting interindividual biological susceptibility to noise.

Abstract

Acute exposure to night-time road traffic noise leads to measurable changes in cardiovascular health parameters in healthy adults. These effects were linked to activation of molecular pathways of immune signalling. Plasma proteome changes were correlated to FMD changes (responders vs. non-responders), highlighting interindividual biological susceptibility to noise.
