Effects of Perioperative Noise Exposure on Sleep Quality and Psychological Stress in Patients Undergoing Lung Cancer Surgery.
Observational study 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
objectiveInvestigate how perioperative noise affects sleep quality and psychological stress of lung cancer surgery patients, in order to provide an optimizing ward settings and improving recovery efficacy.
methodThis study is a retrospective observational study, with data sourced from the hospital medical record system, including 143 lung cancer surgery patients (November 2022-November 2024), who were divided based on perioperative 24-h average LAeq into two groups: ts (Novem n = 69) and <55 dBA ( n = 74). This study assessed sleep using (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index [PSQI] and sleep structure parameters: total sleep time [TST], sleep efficiency [SE], sleep latency [SL], psychological status using Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 [DASS-21], and Self-Rating Depression Scale [SDS]), saliva cortisol (SC), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), and postoperative complications. Multiple logistic regression was used to control confounders and analyze the association between noise exposure and patient recovery.
resultPost-treatment, the high-exposure group had significantly higher PSQI, DASS-21 and SDS scores, as well as TSH and SC levels, but shorter TST, lower SE, and longer SL compared with the low-exposure group (all P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in postoperative complications ( P > 0.05). Multiple logistic regression showed that after controlling for confounding factors such as age, perioperative noise exposure ≤55 dBA was a protective factor against sleep disorders and increased psychological stress, while open chest surgery was a risk factor for increased psychological stress.
conclusionPerioperative noise exposure in lung cancer surgery reduces sleep quality, increases psychological stress. Multivariate analysis identifies 55 dBA noise as an independent protective factor, highlighting the need for optimizing the ward environment to improve recovery outcomes.
