One night? You could probably repeat this experiment with fart stench or any other obnoxious irregularity and find impairment of glucose tolerance at a decent p value.
I see the headlines now: "Fart stink during sleep impairs cardiometabolic function." So yeah, guess the wife is getting diabetes if I don't move to the dog house.
- makeitdouble 5y agoJoking (?) aside, cheapish air purifier are reasonably efficient to help for stinks and other air issues during sleep if they have a carbon filter (IKEA ones have the option for instance). Bonus point if they can auto-adjust power depending on the air status, but I don't think that's mandatory.
- erosenbe0 5y agoI agree -- our bedroom is small and benefits from even a simple filter! However, my point was to humurously criticize the study title for sounding too conclusive. The study is useful as a starting point but it is pretty well known in such literature that one-night of introducing variable X can yield results showing negative short-term perturbations. X can even be something generally regarded as positive such as first night on low-stress vacation, or even the first few times people share a room with a partner. Changing a routine increases vigilance (not sure of proper technical vernacular for that, but you get the idea).
