My Ph.D. project was focused adverse health effect of transportation noise from road traffic, railway, and aircraft, in particular interactions with traffic related air pollution. It is a part of big project of assessment of Health risks related to noise, performed at Unit of Environmental epidemiology. Recently we have developed a methodology for precise individual assessment of residential exposure to noise from road, railway and aircraft noise, which combines noise modelling and questionnaire information on the location of the relevant apartment within a building. The methodology will be used to estimate residential noise exposure for subjects in various epidemiological materials, including members of a cohort with more than 23 000 subjects from Stockholm County. Simultaneous estimation of long-term exposure to traffic-related air pollution will enable studies of interactions with noise exposure in relation to cardiovascular outcomes. Other studies focus on traffic noise exposure and metabolic outcomes, including markers of obesity.
