Table 5 Ischaemic heart disease mortality and noise exposure at 85dB(A) or higher: odds ratios associated with each 10 years of exposure, assuming a constant trend in exposed group only*.

Crude OR Adj† OR (95% CI) Adj‡ OR (95% CI)
Both sites 0.96 0.94 (0.81–1.09) 0.91 (0.76–1.09)
Site A 0.85 0.84 (0.67–1.05) 0.79 (0.59–1.07)
Site B 1.06 1.01 (0.82–1.24) 1.02 (0.81–1.29)

*Model included dichotomous exposure variable (years at 85dB(A) or higher exposure)/10.

†Model included five pre‐employment measures: see table 3.

‡Model included five pre‐employment measures and duration of employment.
