Relation of repeated exposures to air emissions from swine industrial livestock operations to sleep duration and awakenings in nearby residential communities.
Article in Sleep health, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
objectivesSince waste from swine industrial livestock operations (ILOs) produces air pollutants associated with negative health outcomes among nearby residents, we assessed the impact of odorant emissions on sleep duration and awakenings.
designA repeated-measures design.
settingSixteen residential communities in eastern North Carolina hosting swine ILOs.
participantsEighty participants residing in eastern North Carolina from 2003 to 2005. INTERVENTION (IF ANY): Not applicable. MEASUREMENTS: Study participants completed twice-daily diaries in which they rated the strength of hog odors and indicated whether they were asleep or awake per hour for 2 weeks. Simultaneously, a monitoring trailer placed in a central location in each community measured the atmospheric concentration of hydrogen sulfide (H
resultsAmong 80 participants, nightly (across a 12-hour period) swine odor was associated with lower nightly sleep duration (mean difference = -14.3 minutes, 95% confidence interval -25.0 to -3.3 minutes) compared to odor-free nights and detection of nightly hydrogen sulfide was associated with an increased risk of awakening (hazard ratio = 1.23, 95% confidence interval 0.98 to 1.55) compared to nights with no detection of hydrogen sulfide.
conclusionsThese results suggest that environmental odorants are important considerations for sleep health and highlight the importance of sleep as a potential mediator between environmental air pollution and health outcomes impacted by poor sleep.
