“…In the context of the military environment, the stressor is often called an operational physiological or psychological stressor. People have investigated the effects of environmental stressors on physiological responses and pharmacokinetics changes in animal models a few decades ago, 98 with recent human studies of the stressors ranging from life‐threatening acute injuries to chronic physical or psychological effects 35 , 99 …”

“…The effects of psychological stressors on pharmacokinetics have been associated with stress‐induced physiological changes, 41 , 93 , 95 genetic polymorphisms of drug‐metabolizing enzymes (eg, CYP2D6), and personality type 38 . For example, emotional stress could increase the plasma concentration of low density lipoproteins and free fatty acids, 98 and elevate heart rate, blood pressure, and glucocorticoid levels 130 . Sleep deprivation and mental challenge could induce changes in hemodynamics, in particular cardiac output 131 , 132 .…”

We conducted a comprehensive literature review on the effects of psychophysiological stressors on the pharmacokinetics of drugs commonly used by the Canadian Forces. These stressors may change the physiological status of an individual and subsequently may alter the drug's pharmacokinetics. The effects of isolated physical activities on pharmacokinetics have been well documented. However, the findings are inconsistent due to variations in the intensity and duration of the activity, and the routes and timing of drug administration. The effects of other environmental stressors, such as temperature extremes, hypobaric, hyperbaric, hyperoxic conditions, and the effects of multiple stressors are less well known. There are limited studies describing the effects of psychological stressors on drug pharmacokinetics. Further studies are necessary to understand the clinical implications of pharmacokinetic changes. We also discussed the advantage of using a physiologically based pharmacokinetic model to predict the effects of a single or multiple stressors.

“…It represents the fluctuations in the pressure of the air that affects the body. The occupational noise can be defined as the amount of acoustic energy that is received by the auditory system of the employee while working in the industry [43]. Although people are habituated to noise exposure, the degree of this habituation differs greatly among the individuals.…”

Hypertension is a condition that is characterized by the persistent raised blood pressure. It is not seen as a disease rather as a major risk factor that is solely responsible for different types of cardiovascular diseases such as heart failure, ischemic heart disease, and left ventricular hypertrophy. Although this condition cannot be cured, hypertension can be managed and prevented by adopting a healthy lifestyle that encompasses factors such as diet, physical exercise, reduced alcohol consumption, moderate sodium and potassium intake, and psychological factors. Apart from these, environmental factor like noise has also proved to be associated with the high blood pressure. Different prevalence studies have been conducted to find out the relationship between high blood pressure and different lifestyle factors. This article aims to review and emphasize the prevalence of high blood pressure in slum dwellers and at-risk workers who are shift job workers and occupational noise affected workers. Different research articles pertaining to different authors and countries have been reviewed to portray the concern of this condition. There is the need for proper recognition to these folks of people who are exposed to the precarious and high-risk style of living in the slum dwellers, shift job workers, and occupational noise affected workers. The distress in the physiological functioning of the body leading to hypertension has been found in the slum dwellers and at-risk workers; shift job workers and occupational noise affected workers that are again attributable to aforementioned lifestyle and environmental factor. The proper management of hypertension is extremely required to safeguard these unacknowledged groups of people.

“…High intensity noises in the infrasonic (5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20) and ultrasonic (16-20 kHz) ranges may cause extreme disruption of a variety of physiological processes, although little empirical evidence has been gathered to support this viewpoint. Kryter [28] speculates that extreme infrasonics may cause extreme amounts of ear pain, dizziness, nausea, and possibly resonant vibrations in the chest, throat, nasal cavities, and eyes.…”

Psychological deterrents to nuclear theft :

A review of the unclassified literature dealing with psychological deterrents was conducted for the Defense Nuclear Agency (DNA). Its purpose was to identify techniques that might be useful in DNA's Forced-Entry Deterrent Systems (FEDS) Program for psychologically deterring nuclear weapon theft. The review indicates that while human psychological processes (sensory, perceptual, and cognitive) can be manipulated by various means, definitive empirical data are lacking which directly relate to deterring nuclear weapon theft. Behavioral impact research should be undertaken by DNA to (1) ascertain the deterrence values of the many techniques identified and (2) test the hypotheses implicit in the FEDS concept.
