A four year long research programme divided into four phases has been designed for the first time to assess the combined Noise-Air quality and combined exposure to Noise-Air pollution at the curbside open-air microenvironment of Kolkata city, India. The results and the findings of the different phases of study had already been published. The objective of the review work is to fuse the findings ...

conclusions according to the factory noise map, except for the control rooms with 81 dba noise, other cases of measuring stations were higher than the standard exposure of 85 dba noise. as a result, the implementation of control strategies, such as inspection and performance of control systems and insulation of the control room to prevent unnecessary exposure noise, are necessary. background st...

introduction: the improvement of technology has increased noise levels in hospital wards to higher than international standard levels (35-45 db). higher noise levels than the maximum level result in patient’s instability and dissatisfaction. moreover, it will have serious negative effects on the staff’s health and the quality of their services. the purpose of this survey is to analyze the level...

transportation sector is one of the major contributors to noise in the urban areas. the traffic noise environment in balasore, a city of orissa, india in terms of standard noise indices, community response and community health effects are worked out in the present study. noise pollution is assessed in six different squares (road sections) of the town. it is inferred that the noise levels are mo...

objective the hippocampal circuit integrity is crucial for learning and memory. despite the existing reports on hippocampal–dependent memory impairment due to noise stress, there are only a few studies on the effect of noise stress on anatomical structure of hippocampus. the present study is aimed to investigate the likely effects of chronic noise exposure on the volume of rat hippocampus. mate...
