Use of a wearable device to improve sleep quality.
Article in Frontiers in digital health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Objectives: The present study aimed to analyze the effects of the use of a digital wellness device on improving sleep through reducing environmental noise. Methods: Fifty-five self-reported light or moderate sleepers with difficulty falling or staying asleep due to environmental noise participated in the study. Objective sleep architecture data were collected via a wireless electroencephalogram (EEG) sleep monitor and subjective data were obtained through analysis of daily sleep diaries and responses to study-specific user experience surveys. Four primary outcomes specified Results: Use of the digital wellness device was associated with reduced SOL both objectively and subjectively. Perceived SOL was 32.5% reduced ( Conclusions: Participants fell asleep faster when using the wearable wellness device. Participants also perceived sleep quality improvements with the intervention, although no objective differences were measured. These findings show promise for using noise-masking digital wellness devices in noisy environments to improve sleep quality.
