The study explored the relationship between air pollution exposure and sleep efficiency in over 1,800 participants across six US cities.

Specifically, high nitrogen dioxide levels increased the odds of low sleep efficiency by 60% while high PM2.5 levels raised the odds by 50%. However, the study did not conclusively prove that pollution alone impacts sleep, as other linked factors like traffic
