Feasibility of a mobile app for traumatic stress management using neurofeedback-based meditation and binaural beat music: A pilot randomized controlled trial.

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
Objective: Individuals who have experienced traumatic events often encounter a variety of changes in their lives and and may suffer from them. To help and alleviate these traumatic stress, we developed an evidence-based mobile application (app) for easy accessibility. This study aimed to test the effects of the mobile app for traumatic stress management using neurofeedback-based meditation and binaural beat music. Method: Fifty-eight participants were enrolled in a pilot randomized controlled trial (Trial Registration Number: KCT007724) consisting of two groups: (a) experimental group (n = 28) and (b) control group (n = 30). Participants used the mobile app 3 days a week at home for 4 weeks, engaging in neurofeedback-based meditation and binaural beat music. Participants completed self-report measures (SCL-47-R, Psychological Well-Being Post-traumatic Changes questionnaire) and EEG test (emotional stability, anti-stress) at a pretreatment and 1-month follow-up. Results: Participants in the experimental group demonstrated significant improvements in psychological well-being (F = 16.37, Conclusion: The results of this pilot trial, involving a neurofeedback-based meditation and binaural beat-centered music intervention, provide preliminary support and a readily accessible option for individuals seeking to recover from the effects of traumatic events. Additionally, we have established the groundwork for subsequent research to study the efficacy of a neurofeedback-based meditation program and a binaural beat-centered music intervention for those who have experienced traumatic events.
