A study published last month in the peer-reviewed journal Environmental Health Perspectives found women who were exposed to even quiet airplane noises were more likely to get less than seven hours of sleep a night.
Anyone who has been on a long flight can confirm airplanes don’t make it easy to get some shut-eye — but according to a new study, you don’t have to be on a plane for them to be the cause of a poor night’s sleep.women who were exposed to even quiet airplane noises were more likely to get less than seven hours of sleep a night.
According to researchers, this is the first large-scale investigation into airplane noise and its health impacts. Researchers created a picture of increasing aircraft noise levels by looking at the reported levels every five years from 1995 to 2015, including both estimates of nighttime noise levels and daytime noise levels to create an average.
In this study, researchers found that being exposed to airplane noise at average levels as low as 45 dB resulted in those participants being more likely to sleep less than seven hours a night. The odds of sleeping less than seven hours a night increased as the noise level did, according to researchers, even after controlling for demographics, comorbidities and other environmental factors such as the nightly light level.
