Effect of noise on the electrocardiographic parameters.
Article in International archives of occupational and environmental health, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeNoise, defined as any sound that is unpleasant, is one of the most important environmental problems. Prolonged exposure to noise has been shown to be associated with the development of cardiovascular diseases. No study investigated the effect of noise on surface electrocardiography (ECG).
aimsThe aim of our study is to investigate the effect of noise on surface ECG parameters including P-wave dispersion (PWD), QT intervals, corrected QT interval (QTc), T-wave peak to end (Tp-e) interval, and Tp-e/QT and Tp-e/QTc ratios.
methodsA total of 51 people working in the textile factory affected by the noise and 43 volunteers without any disease and who were not exposed to noise were included in this study. The average noise level in the textile factory was 112 dB. A 12-lead ECG was obtained from all individuals. PR interval, PWD, QRS duration, QT interval, QTc interval, Tp-e interval, and Tp-e/QT and Tp-e/QTc ratios were calculated for all individuals.
resultsThe noise group had significantly increased PWD [35 (28-40) vs. 28 (22-36) p = 0.029], QT interval ( 373.5 ± 27.3 vs. 359.3 ± 2.74, p = 0.001), QTc interval [(409 ± 21 vs. 403 ± 13 p = 0.045)], Tp-e interval [(90.6 ± 6.0 vs. 83.5 ± 7.3 p < 0.001)], Tp-e/QT [(0.24 ± 0.03 vs. 0.23 ± 0.02, p = 0.015)] and Tp-e/QTc [(0.22 ± 0.02 vs. 0.21 ± 0.02 p < 0.001)] compared to control group. Also, duration of working was positively correlated with PWD (r = 0.468, p = 0.001) and Tp-e/QTc ratio (r = 0.328, p = 0.019). In multiple linear regression linear regression analysis, noise was the independent predictor of both PWD (β = 0.244, p = 0.032) and Tp-e/QTc (β = 0.319, p = 0.003)
conclusionWe showed that noise significantly increased PWD, QT and Tp-e interval measurements. Also, noise was the independent predictor for both PWD and Tp-e/QTc.
