[Methodologic approaches to assessing the noise level of health resorts and places of mass recreation of the population]. / Metodicheskie podkhody k otsenke shumogo rezhima kurortov i mest massovogo otdykha naseleniia.

Methodological approaches to the assessment of noise regime at health resorts and places of rest of the population were set forth when carrying out preventive and current sanitary surveillance. The sources governing the noise regime of health resorts and places of rest were identified, and the problems of zone arrangement of places of rest according to its type (long-term or short-term) analysed. Permissible noise levels were given for various functional zones and the measures for normalization of noise regime proposed.

[Hygienic aspects of noise prevention in the cities]. / Gigienicheskie aspekty shumozashchity v usloviiakh goroda.

The study was undertaken to analyze the sources of external noise, factors influencing the noise regime of the residential area and the characteristics of traffic noise propagation near highway and inside the housing estates. Acoustic discomfort zones were described as illustrated by Troparevo micro-district. Comparative acoustic efficacy of some noise-protective installations was presented, i.e., of wall shields, pits, embankments, scaffold bridges and noiseproof buildings with muffle valves.

[Effect of transportation noise on the status of the cardiovascular system of the population]. / Vliianie transportnykh shumov na sostoianie serdechno-sosudistoi sistemy naseleniia.

The results of a multipronged study of noise effect on the state of the cardiovascular system of the urban population are presented. The study of regular noise effect on various population groups has been conducted under natural and laboratory conditions. A complex of appropriate investigation techniques has been used. The population of noise-exposed regions has higher rates and more distinct forms of disorders in myocardium, vessel elasticity, hemodynamics, extracardial regulation and higher risk of cardiovascular disease than those living under more quiet conditions.
