Table 3 Associations estimated from multilevel logistic regression between road traffic noise estimated at the place of residence (2A) and at the median noise value of 500 m radius street network buffers around the place of residence (2B) and annoyance due to road traffic, adjusted for individual/neighborhood socio-demographic factors (RECORD Cohort Study)

  1. Multilevel logistic regression models were estimated after excluding individuals with missing values for road traffic noise variables. These models were estimated between categorical noise variables and annoyance due to road traffic, adjusted for individual/neighborhood factors of basic model 1 (Table 2). Road traffic noise were estimated at the place of residence in Models 2A (N = 6194) and as the median value of 500 m radius street network buffers around the place of residence in model 2B (N = 6539).
