2 European studies at ESC Congress 2024 link urban noise pollution to increased risk of early-onset MI in young people with low traditional risk factors.

2 European studies presented at ESC Congress 2024 show urban noise pollution negatively impacts heart health, increasing risk of early-onset myocardial infarction (MI) in young people with low traditional risk factors. German study found higher noise exposure in MI patients with low LIFE-CVD score, while French ENVI-MI study showed worsened 1-year prognosis with increased nighttime noise exposure. Researchers suggest noise pollution reduction may improve public health and mitigate heart attack risk.
