Effects of Occupational Noise Exposure on Disease Control and Psychological Status in Patients with Diabetic Nephropathy.
Article in Noise & health. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objective To investigate the effects of occupational noise exposure on disease control and psychological status in patients with diabetic nephropathy.
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted on 306 patients with diabetic nephropathy who visited the Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University between January 2022 and January 2024. The patients were divided into two groups based on their occupational noise exposure level as follows: Group A (noise level ≥55 dB, 148 cases) and Group B (noise level <55 dB, 158 cases). The general information, noise exposure levels, glycaemic indicators [glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-hour postprandial plasma glucose (2hPG), glycated serum protein (GSP)], renal function indicators [blood urea nitrogen (BUN), urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER), serum creatinine (SCr), 24-hour urinary protein (24hUP)] and psychological status [Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS)] were compared between Groups A and B. Univariate analysis was performed using Pearson correlation analysis.
resultsNo significant differences were observed in age, gender and body mass index between the two groups (P > 0.05). However, glycaemic indicators such as HbA1c, FPG, PBG, GSP; renal function indicators such as BUN, UAER, SCr, 24hUP and psychological status (SAS and SDS scores) in Group A were significantly higher than those in Group B (P < 0.05). A significantly positive association was found between noise levels with SDS score (r = 0.321), FPG (r = 0.320) and UAER level (r = 0.405) (P < 0.001).
conclusionThis study reveals that occupational noise exposure negatively impacts disease control and psychological status in patients with diabetic nephropathy. Therefore, focusing on noise control in clinical practice is essential.
