Is 4-month-old infants' night waking affected by mothers' responses to them? A cross-sectional survey in Japan.

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
objectiveTo investigate the association between night waking frequency in 3- to 4-month-old infants and mothers' response to them.
designCross-sectional survey. SAMPLE: We examined 663 mothers of infants aged 3-5 months who attended regular health checks for 4 months at 7 public health centres in Japan between September 2006 and March 2007. MEASUREMENTS: Mother-reported questionnaires were used, measuring the frequency of infants' night waking and four types of responses by mothers. Using multiple regression, the association between number of wakings and each response was evaluated adjusting for covariates, that is mother's (e.g. feelings of worry and bed-sharing) and infant's (e.g. age and sex) demographic variables.
resultsThe number of wakings was related to "immediately feeding and/or checking diapers" (β = 0.16, p = .002).This response to infants' night waking may be associated with night waking frequency.
conclusionModifying caregiver responses to infants' night waking by reducing immediate feeding or diaper checks could improve infants' night waking frequency.
