COVID‐19 and cardiovascular risk: Flying toward a silent world?

Does exposure to noise pollution influence the incidence and severity of COVID-19?

“…Despite this, there is practically no study that analyzes the impact of exposure to noise on the incidence and severity of COVID-19. The studies that have been carried out related to the possible relationship between noise and COVID-19 concern the decrease in hospital admissions due to cardiovascular causes resulting from the registered decrease in the levels of noise during the confinement ( Dutheil et al, 2020 ).…”

Autism spectrum disorder and air pollution: A systematic review and meta-analysis

“…ASD was first described as a disorder in children with problems relating to others, highly sensitive to changes in their environment 62 . Prevalence of ASD appears to have increases over time 63,64 possibly due to a modified definition of ASD, enhanced awareness and improved diagnosis 65,66 , but also to a global increase in air pollutants in most megalopolis 67,68 . The rigorous and sensitive statistical approach used in this meta-analysis allowed analysis of several included studies presenting different data for the same risk (e.g.…”

Reduction in environmental noise during COVID‐19 pandemic and cardiovascular disease: A mystery for further investigation

“…We read with great interest the letter by Dutheil et al 1 that highlighted the impressive noise reduction from road and aircraft traffic due to COVID‐19 pandemic. The pandemic caused up to 50% reduction in seismic noise leading to one of the quietest recorded periods on earth 2 .…”
