Enhanced sleep staging with artificial intelligence: a validation study of new software for sleep scoring.
Article in Frontiers in artificial intelligence, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Manual sleep staging (MSS) using polysomnography is a time-consuming task, requires significant training, and can lead to significant variability among scorers. STAGER is a software program based on machine learning algorithms that has been developed by Medibio Limited (Savage, MN, USA) to perform automatic sleep staging using only EEG signals from polysomnography. This study aimed to extensively investigate its agreement with MSS performed during clinical practice and by three additional expert sleep technicians. Forty consecutive polysomnographic recordings of patients referred to three US sleep clinics for sleep evaluation were retrospectively collected and analyzed. Three experienced technicians independently staged the recording using the electroencephalography, electromyography, and electrooculography signals according to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine guidelines. The staging initially performed during clinical practice was also considered. Several agreement statistics between the automatic sleep staging (ASS) and MSS, among the different MSSs, and their differences were calculated. Bootstrap resampling was used to calculate 95% confidence intervals and the statistical significance of the differences. STAGER's ASS was most comparable with, or statistically significantly better than the MSS, except for a partial reduction in the positive percent agreement in the wake stage. These promising results indicate that STAGER software can perform ASS of inpatient polysomnographic recordings accurately in comparison with MSS.
