Local determinants of road traffic noise levels versus determinants of air pollution levels in a Mediterranean city.

Environ. Res.. 2011 Jan;111(1):177-83, PMID: 21167480

Both traffic-related noise and air pollution have been associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD). Spatial correlations between these environmental stressors may entail mutual confounding in epidemiological studies investigating their long-term effects. Few studies have investigated their correlation - none in Spain - and results differ among cities.
