Tóm tắt : | 69 p. A group of international experts met to review and discuss the preliminary assessment of burden of disease (BoD) from environmental noise in Bern, Switzerland, on 15-16 December 2005. Experts provided background documents and made presentations reviewing the detailed methods and preliminary results of BoD assessment for selected noise-related outcomes: Cardiovascular disease, Sleep disturbance and annoyance, Hearing loss and tinnitus, and Cognitive impairment. For each topic, the state-of-the-art review was made regarding the exposure data, exposure-response relationships, outcome data, on disability weight and DALY calculation. WHO staff provided the topic-specific experts with methodological guides based on previous experience in global burden of disease project. The meeting identified methodological constraints and informational gaps in quantification of DALYs due to environmental noise. Experts agreed to collaborate to improve methods and produce a reliable estimation of noise BoD based on available evidence. WHO agreed to coordinate the Working Group activity in compiling and publishing the results as a series of environmental burden of disease (EBD) reports. For this purpose, an editorial meeting is planned in 18-19 April 2006 to review and edit the first draft of the document estimating BoD of environmental noise. |
