description | Non-auditory effects of noise on humans have been intensively studied in the
last four decades. The International Commission on Biological Effects of
Noise has been following scientific advances in this field by organizing
international congresses from the first one in 1968 in Washington, DC, to the
11th congress in Nara, Japan, in 2014. There is already a large scientific
body of evidence on the effects of noise on annoyance, communication,
performance and behavior, mental health, sleep, and cardiovascular functions
including relationship with hypertension and ischemic heart disease. In the
last five years new issues in this field have been tackled. Large
epidemiological studies on community noise have reported its relationship
with breast cancer, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and obesity. It seems that
noise-induced sleep disturbance may be one of the mediating factors in these
effects. Given a large public health importance of the above-mentioned
diseases, future studies should more thoroughly address the mechanisms
underlying the reported association with community noise exposure. [Projekat
