Epidemiological characteristics of hearing loss associated with noise temporal structure among manufacturing workers

Lifang Zhou et al.

Summary: This study investigated the epidemiological characteristics of occupational noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) among manufacturing workers, and found that high-frequency NIHL was associated with sex, age, exposure duration, noise intensity, and temporal structure of noise, while speech-frequency NIHL was only associated with age. Increased kurtosis intensified the effects of noise exposure duration and intensity on high-frequency hearing loss. The temporal structure of noise should be considered in the diagnosis and early prevention of occupational hearing loss caused by complex noise.

Occupational Hearing Loss Associated With Non-Gaussian Noise: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Zhihao Shi et al.

Summary: The study found that workers exposed to non-Gaussian noise had a higher risk of developing high-frequency noise-induced hearing loss compared to those exposed to Gaussian noise or not exposed to noise. The main risk factors for occupational hearing loss include age, exposure duration, noise level, and noise temporal structure.

The Role of the Kurtosis Metric in Evaluating the Risk of Occupational Hearing Loss Associated with Complex Noise- Zhejiang Province, China, 2010-2019

Meibian Zhang et al.

Summary: This study highlights the importance of noise temporal structure (kurtosis) as a significant risk factor for occupational NIHL in addition to noise energy. The combination of noise kurtosis and noise energy can effectively evaluate the risk of occupational hearing loss associated with complex noise. It suggests that existing international noise exposure standards should be modified based on noise temporal structure to better prevent occupational NIHL.
