Experimental Study on the Effects of Cockpit Noise on Physiological Indicators of Pilots.

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
Cockpit noise, as a critical environmental factor affecting flight safety, may impair pilots' cognitive functions, leading to a decreased operational performance and decision-making errors, thereby posing potential threats to aviation safety. In order to reveal the relationship between the cockpit noise sound pressure level and pilot physiological indicators, and provide a scientific basis for cockpit noise airworthiness standards, this experiment takes pilot trainees as the research subject. Based on the principle of multimodal data synchronization, a sound field reconstruction system is used to reconstruct the cockpit sound field. Electroencephalogram (EEG), electrocardiogram (ECG), and electrodermal activity (EDA) measurements are carried out in different sound pressure level noise operating environments. The results show that with the increase in the sound pressure level, the significant suppression of α-wave activity in the occipital and parietal regions suggests that the cortical resting state is lifted and visual attention is enhanced; the enhancement of the β-wave in the frontal regions reflects the enhancement of alertness and prefrontal executive control, and the suppression of θ-wave activity in the frontal and temporal regions may indicate that cognitive tuning is suppressed, which reflects the brain's rapid adaptive response to external noise stimuli in a high-noise environment; noise exposure triggers sustained sympathetic nerve hyperactivity, which is manifested by a significant acceleration of the heart rate and a significant increase in the mean value of skin conductance when the noise sound pressure level exceeds 70 dB(A). The correlation analysis between physiological indicators shows that cockpit noise has a multi-system synergistic effect on human physiological indicators. The experimental results indicate that noise has a significant impact on EEG, ECG, and EDA indicators.
