# Long-Term Exposure to Low Frequency Noise Induces Vibroacoustic Disease

Long-term exposure to LFN (500 Hz, including infrasound) has been shown to produce [vibroacoustic](https://alsuprun.com/) disease, a systemic pathology that affects many organs and systems of the body. LFN-induced fibrosis has been documented in human autopsies and confirmed in rodent models.

 It is hypothesized that biotensegrity structures may help explain these tissue and cellular responses to LFN exposure. Here, voice acoustic parameters from nine VAD individuals were analyzed for spectral, temporal and perturbation measures.

 

## Signs and Symptoms

 [Vibroacoustic](https://alsuprun.com/) disease (VAD) is a systemic pathology caused by long-term exposure to low frequency noise (LFN; 500 Hz, including infrasound). VAD is characterized by the abnormal proliferation of extra-cellular matrix. It has been observed in a number of LFN-exposed professionals, such as aircraft technicians, military and commercial pilots and cabin crew members, ship machinists and disk jockeys. It has also been demonstrated in animal models exposed to LFN. These findings suggest that the principle of biotensegrity structures may play an important role in understanding morphological changes in tissues, organs and cells following exposure to LFN.2-7.

The most prominent symptom is the thickening of the cardiac pericardium.

 

## Biomarkers

 The authors use a machine learning model to detect [vibroacoustic](https://alsuprun.com/) patterns associated with host response to infection, focusing on subtle alterations in compressible air-fluid dynamics and biomechanical tissue properties. The model detects acoustic features associated with lung tension, wave propagation, and flow dynamics in patients with early infection, suggesting that a cellular response to viral invasion alters the underlying mechanical structure of the human lung in a manner that can be detected by machine learning algorithms from anterior chest recordings.

 [Vibroacoustic](https://alsuprun.com/) sensing of surgical tool-tissue interaction is a non-invasive, real-time modality for objective and continuous monitoring of needle placement during endoscopic interventions. Acoustic signals are generated by the proximal surface of the tool during interaction with biological tissues and are acquired by an external sensor at the tip of the instrument. This allows the technology to be deployed as an add-on feature without structural modification of the tool and can provide feedback to surgeons in the context of existing endoscopic workflows.

The present study demonstrates, under controlled ex vivo conditions in the human body donor, that peritoneum puncture events can be reliably identified in a clinically relevant setting using the same techniques.

 In this pilot study, 14 Veress needle insertions were performed in a single body donor and the characteristic signal phases (Ph1-Ph5) and transient excitation associated with puncture of the fascia or other tissues were reliably observed in the corresponding acoustic signal. The puncture events consistently formed a compact, well-separated cluster in the unsupervised feature embedding algorithm. The results of this study suggest that acoustic detection of peritoneal puncture events is feasible in the human body donor, corroborated by cross-species replication of the puncture phase structure in porcine tissue and supports further translational development of this technology.

 Although the study is meticulously designed and appears to be conducted with a high degree of rigor, the methodology and data presentation are somewhat lacking. The data collection process requires an average of 9 auscultation points at 6 body postures/positions and 30 seconds of recording per point, generating a massive dataset (54 minutes of [vibroacoustic](https://alsuprun.com/) signal) that is not easily interpretable. A post-experiment annotation pipeline is required to map endoscopic video synchronization and occurrence of a puncture event to the corresponding acoustic signal, which imposes a limitation on scalability to resource-limited or primary care settings.

 

## Diagnosis

 Long-term exposure to high pressure amplitude vibration (LPV) and low frequency noise (LFN, including infrasound) can induce [vibroacoustic](https://alsuprun.com/) disease (VAD), a systemic pathology characterized by the abnormal proliferation of extra-cellular matrices. VAD has been documented in aircraft technicians, commercial and military pilots and cabin crew members, ship machinists, restaurant workers and disk-jockeys. Since the first autopsy of a deceased VAD patient in 1987, it has become clear that LFN-induced damage to extracellular matrix occurs throughout the body, and notably affects the cardio-respiratory system. Several biomarkers are known for this condition, and biopsy is an important tool in its diagnosis. Voice acoustic analysis can also be used to identify pathology.

 

## Treatment

 Many naturopathic practitioners now incorporate sound therapy into comprehensive treatment protocols. The approach reflects a growing acceptance that the body responds to specific frequencies of vibration. The results may enhance cognitive function, reduce pain and promote healing at the cellular level. This is an area of medicine that continues to advance.

 [Vibroacoustic Therapy](https://alsuprun.com/) (VAT) is a form of vibrational sound healing that uses thousand year old methods paired with modern technology to produce incredible results. The human body is 60%-70% water, and the vibrations produced by VAT travel through the water in our cells to reach deep cellular healing on a mental and physical level.

 [![](https://alsuprun.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/RadionicMerch.png)](https://alsuprun.com/merch.html) Studies show that vibrotactile stimulation (the application of vibration to the skin) can have positive effects on a wide range of conditions, including pain management, stress reduction, anxiety relief and physical recovery. It’s also been shown to be a safe and effective alternative to pharmaceutical treatments, particularly for individuals who are sensitive to side effects or who wish to avoid drug dependency.

 The clinical effectiveness of vibrational sound therapy relates to its ability to modulate the autonomic nervous system. Research on vibrational stimulation using low-frequency sounds shows that 40 Hz auditory and visual stimulation produces a measurable increase in parasympathetic activity, as well as decreases physiological stress markers such as heart rate variability and cortisol levels.

 It’s also been shown to increase the activation of gamma oscillations in brain areas associated with memory, learning and cognitive enhancement. For individuals with Parkinson’s disease, targeted vibrotactile stimulation has been shown to improve tremor and dyskinesia symptoms.
