The relationship between ambient neighborhood noise exposure and sleep parameters among Black adults living in the Miami metropolitan area.

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: Black individuals in the US are burdened by sleep health disparities compared to non-Hispanic White individuals. Neighborhood factors could contribute and provide insights into these disparities. This investigation examined associations between environmental noise and sleep parameters among Black adults to deepen the understanding of sleep disparities. Methods: Participant sleep parameters were recorded at-home for seven nights using cardiopulmonary coupling-based SleepImage Ring. Soundscores Results: Analysis of 261 Black adults (aged 18-85 years; 66.7 % female) from South Florida showed quieter environments (higher soundscores) were associated with increased deep sleep and improved sleep quality. When stratified by age and sex, lower noise was associated with decreased nocturnal awakening duration in males aged 18-54 years ( Conclusions: To the authors' knowledge, this investigation is among the first to investigate associations between noise and sleep in Black adults using objective measures. Results showed sleep parameters were associated with noise, with unique demographic variations. Future investigations are necessary to address the effects of neighborhood features on sleep among Black adults.
