Associations between wearables vital parameters and self-perceived mood-an ecological momentary assessment study among healthy adolescents.

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: The prevalence of mental illnesses among adolescents has increased over the past decade. Lifestyle factors, such as regular exercise or sleep behavior can play a significant role in the prevalence of mental health. Today, passive mobile sensing or smartwatches offer valuable insights into the relationships between device-derived vital parameters (e.g., steps, exercise, sleep, heart rate) and self-reported mental health indicators, such as mood. However, the link between vital parameters and self-reported mood in daily life among adolescents remains understudied. Methods: A total of 53 adolescents participated in a two-week ambulatory assessment study. Participants were equipped with a wrist-worn Apple Watch and a research-grade thigh-worn accelerometer to continuously measure physical behavior in daily life. Concurrently, participants rated momentary mood up to six times a day on a self-developed mood barometer (i.e., a 10-point emoji scale) via a web-based application on a smartphone. We used multilevel modeling to analyze the within-subject effects of vital parameters on momentary mood. Results: Step counts ( Conclusion: Our study indicates that vital parameters correlate with mood ratings on both momentary and daily levels in adolescents. Given the increasing prevalence of mental health disorders, there is an urgent need for practical, scalable solutions. Mobile health technologies designed to enhance mental health support for adolescents and younger adults show significant promise, making them a compelling focus for future research.
