Human exposure to harmful urban traffic noise pollution levels: a case study from seoul, South Korea.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Among the various forms of environmental noise pollution in urban areas, road traffic noise (RTN) is the most dominant source, with it increasing the risk of various diseases such as stroke, heart disease, and diabetes. Considering these risks, this study aims to evaluate RTN levels across four monitoring sites classified by urban neighborhood categories, compare them with WHO-recommended thresholds, and analyze potential adverse health effects. We conducted a cross-sectional study by selecting residential areas, commercial areas, and industrial areas as the study sites, dividing them into areas with large populations and high traffic volumes according to land use types. We used WHO guidelines for no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) for myocardial infarction (MI), for nighttime and the whole day (L
