1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Swaddling is a traditional technique used to improve sleep quality among newborns by providing a secure, womb-like environment that may enhance relaxation and reduce arousals. This quasi-experimental study evaluated the effectiveness of swaddling in promoting sleep patterns in a sample of 60 full-term newborns in a hospital setting. Participants were divided into an experimental group (n=30), who received swaddling and a control group (n=30), who received routine care. Sleep patterns were assessed using the Anders and Chalemian Sleep Scoring Tool, categorizing sleep into mild, moderate and deep. Findings revealed that swaddled newborns experienced significantly longer durations of deep sleep and fewer spontaneous arousals compared to the control group.
