Centre-specific and pooled effect estimates on diastolic blood pressure (BP) and its 95% confidence Interval (CI) associated with an increase of 5 dB in LAmax of aircraft event (red), of road traffic event (blue) and of indoor event (black) during night-time sleep (source-specific event identified as present if indoor measured LAmax >35 dB).
