Association between environmental noise exposure during pregnancy and the risk of preterm birth: evidence from a multi-dimensional analysis

Key Points

• Preterm birth risk increases with higher levels of environmental noise exposure during pregnancy, indicating a significant concern for maternal health.
• The analysis involved multi-dimensional methods to evaluate the impact, emphasizing the necessity for comprehensive assessments in future studies.
• Data on environmental noise exposure and preterm birth rates were analyzed, highlighting critical public health intersections.
• Findings suggest increased awareness and interventions may be needed to mitigate environmental noise impacts on maternal and infant health.
