Noise at night time from from aircraft or traffic raises blood pressure even while people sleep, a new study has revealed.
Researchers monitored 140 sleeping volunteers in their homes near Heathrow and three other big European airports.
Blood pressure increased after exposure to a noise louder than 35 decibels - whether it came from overhead aircraft, or snoring.
