Participants were categorized into low-noise (&lt;55\u2009dB), moderate-noise (55\u201365\u2009dB), and high-noise (\u226565\u2009dB) exposure groups. Clinical data were collected. The relationship between noise exposure and CAC was analyzed by using multivariable logistic and linear regression models.\n                    <jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold>\n                    The CAC detection rate significantly increased with increasing noise exposure levels (\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                    for trend &lt;0.05). Multivariable linear regression analysis, after full adjustment for potential confounders (Model 3), revealed that compared with the low-exposure group, the moderate- and high-exposure groups had a significantly higher CAC score, with mean increases of 9.85 and 35.27 points, respectively (both\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.001). Furthermore, for every 10\u2009dB increase in noise exposure levels, the high-exposure groups had 1.52- and 1.72-fold higher risks, respectively, than the low-exposure group (both\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.001). Additionally, for every 10\u2009dB increase in nighttime noise levels, the risk of CAC positivity increased by 17% (\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.001). Subgroup analyses demonstrated that the positive association between noise exposure and the CAC score was more pronounced among males, individuals aged \u226560 years, smokers, and those with hypertension or diabetes (all\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                    for interaction &lt;0.05) than in other patients.\n                    <jats:bold>Conclusion:<\/jats:bold>\n                    Long-term ambient noise exposure is independently associated with an elevated CAC score and an increased prevalence of CAC positivity, with nighttime exposure showing a notable association.
