  • Title: [Interaction of arterial blood pressure and industrial noise on human hearing].
    Author: Lahoz Zamarro MT, Abenia Ingalaturre JM, Vallés Varela H, Rubio Calvo E.
    Journal: Acta Otorrinolaringol Esp; 1993; 44(1):11-6. PubMed ID: 8471279.
    Abstract:
    A cross-sectional study of occupational noise exposure and high blood pressure was conducted in a group of 1584 workers. Clinical examination, audiograms, and body mass index were compared in exposed and not to noise finding a strong relationship between severe noise induced hearing loss and high blood pressure in all the staff, as it has been marked by different authors. But when we stratify the population in groups of age, we can't find any influence between noise exposure and hypertension, or between the appearing of high blood pressure and noise induced hearing loss.
