Table 2.

Association between transportation noise source and diabetes mortality. Full cohort including 4,136,220 adults over 30 years, followed from 2001 to 2015. Multipollutant models, adjusting for the other two noise sources plus NO2. HR and 95% confidence intervals (CI) per 10 dB increase in Lden noise source

Notes:

Model 0 included noise exposure (road traffic, railway and aircraft noise; Lden), strata sex and period (i.e. 2001–2005, 2006–2010, or 2011–2015)

Model 1 included Model 0 + the individual-level covariates civil status, education level, mother tongue, nationality and quartiles of local-SEP

Model 2 included Model 1 + community and regional SEP score and unemployment

Model 3 (main model) included Model 2 + quartiles of NO2 exposure

Model 3b included Model 2 + quartiles PM2.5 exposure

Model 4.1 included Model 3 + quartiles of intermittency ratio (IR) at night

Model 4.2 included Model 3 + quartiles of number of noise events at night
