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
Background: Approximately 50% of older adults experience sleep disturbances. The preservation of high-quality sleep is essential; consequently, there is a pressing need for effective interventions to enhance sleep quality. Purpose: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the Mindfulness-Based Art Therapy (MBAT) on sleep quality, depression anxiety stress, and mindful attention awareness among older adults in urban contexts. Patients and Methods: A quasi-experimental study with a one-group pretest-posttest design was conducted from March to May 2025. A random sample of 35 older adults with sleep problems was selected from 98 volunteers in Bangkok to participate in a six-week MBAT program using Mandala coloring. Data collection included a Personal Information Questionnaire, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS-21), and the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS) at baseline (pre-test), 6 weeks (post-test), and 10 weeks (follow-up). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, one-way repeated measures ANOVA, and the Friedman test. Results: Significant changes in PSQI scores ( Conclusion: The MBAT program enhances relaxation for older adults, improving their sleep quality and mental health. It incorporates education on sleep hygiene, stimulus control, sleep restriction, relaxation techniques, and weekly telenursing sessions. The findings suggest it should be integrated into standard nursing care, and future research should consider extending the program's duration to better change the MAAS score.
