Dr. Stoffers and class mates; as we continue to study and explore the
study of epidemiology, we find that epidemiology extends far beyond
the research labs and study labs but is entrenched in most aspect of
patient care and outcomes. In the article (Floud et al., 2013) I found it to
be a very interesting discovery of how the research was conducted that
lead to the finding of possible increased hypertension as a result of
frequent flying with the exposure to loud noises. The method of study
was a cross sectional study that also suggests that there are possibilities
that air pollution could also be a minimal factor in the results. The study
further concludes that exposure to aircraft noise extended over many
years can increase risks of heart disease and stroke, however for the
most accurate and complete outcome additional studies are needed to
establish the relationship of how much the risk from road traffic noise
can also be explained by air pollution.
