Accuracy Bias and Factors Influencing Polysomnography and Consumer Sleep-Monitoring Device Measuring of Total Sleep Time: A Mixed-Methods Study.
Article in Nature and science of sleep, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Objective: The Huawei Band 9 (HWB 9), a consumer sleep-monitoring device with a high market share and a large user base in China, can provide sleep staging parameters and has broad representativeness in sleep monitoring applications. This study aims to compare the accuracy bias of polysomnography (PSG) and consumer sleep-monitoring devices, specifically the HWB 9, in measuring total sleep time (TST) and explore the factors affecting accuracy bias. Methods: This study employed a sequential explanatory mixed-methods design, with quantitative research comprising 108 samples and qualitative research comprising 18 samples. Select hospitalized patients who required polysomnographic monitoring due to their condition from November 2024 to March 2025 were chosen as the research subjects, and who used PSG and HWB 9 for synchronous sleep monitoring throughout the night. Quantitative data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics, the Wilcoxon test, Bland-Altman plots, univariate analysis, and multiple linear regression analysis. Qualitative content data were analyzed using NVivo 14.0 software. Results: The statistical analysis showed a significant difference (P < 0.05) between the HWB 9 and PSG in measuring TST. The Bland-Altman plot showed that the measured values deviated from the consistency interval, indicating systematic overestimation bias. The multiple linear regression analysis showed that turning frequency and sleep posture were significant factors affecting measurement bias. Two main themes were found in the qualitative research: sleep habits and environmental factors, and individual differences and psychological perceptions. Conclusion: Considering the significant variations in individuals, data from such devices should be used with caution in clinical practice.
