Indoor allergen exposure in relation to sleep health among US adults.

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
Background: Common indoor allergens can accumulate within the sleep microenvironment (eg, bedding) and may contribute to poor sleep health. Objective: We sought to examine bedroom allergen exposure in relation to multiple sleep dimensions among US adults. Methods: Data for this study (N = 3399) were collected during the 2005 to 2006 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Concentrations of 8 bedroom allergens were assessed and classified as elevated when levels exceeded 75th/90th percentile thresholds. Self-reported sleep measures included having trouble sleeping, any sleep disorder, snoring, and sleep medication use. Adjusting for confounders, we used Poisson regression to estimate associations between bedroom allergen exposures and sleep dimensions overall and by race/ethnicity, sex/gender, and socioeconomic status. Results: Among adults, elevated pet allergen exposure was the most prevalent (41.2%). Elevated pest allergen exposure was associated with a lower likelihood of a reported sleep disorder diagnosis (prevalence ratio [PR Conclusions: In a nationally representative sample of US adults, exposure to elevated levels of bedroom allergens was associated with poor sleep health, and the magnitude of the associations was generally the strongest among minoritized racial/ethnic groups and women.
