Noise Pollution and Arterial Hypertension
Author(s): Thomas Münzel , Mette Sørensen Added: 3 years ago
The health burden of environmental noise has recently been quantified in a report of the World Health Organization (WHO) in terms of disabilityadjusted life years (DALYs; i.e., the number of years lost because of disability or death – a measure that combines both morbidity and mortality). The WHO estimates that – in western Europeans – each year 45,000 DALYs are lost because of noise-induced… View more

Although the gains of the industrial revolution have transformed human life, they have also left an adverse impact on our health and environment.1 Therefore, factors such as environmental pollution (and pollutants) have lately been the subject of intense scientific investigation. Traffic noise represents a major environmental burden, which has been suggested to lead to serious cardiovascular… View more

The overall increase in patient irradiation caused by the growing use of spiral- and multidetector-row computed tomography (MDCT) is of particular relevance for thoracic imaging. The number of clinical indications for thoracic CT has steadily increased, and CT has become a first-line imaging tool for diseases previously imaged with chest radiography, ventilation/perfusion scintigraphy and… View more

In the clinical management of patients with complex congenital heart disease (CHD), accurate 3D evaluation of their morphological conditions is critical. 3D imaging should demonstrate the shape and spatial relation of great arteries, proximal branch pulmonary arteries and anomalous pulmonary venous or systemic connections, and eventually coronary artery course. 3D information on extra-cardiac… View more
