Parents' Perspectives on Artificial Intelligence-Supported Pediatric Healthcare Services: A Descriptive and Correlational Study.
Article in Journal of nursing management, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe increasing integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into healthcare systems highlights the need to examine parents' knowledge, attitudes, and concerns, as they play a significant role in decision-making regarding pediatric care. This study aimed to assess parents' knowledge levels, attitudes, and concerns regarding AI in pediatric healthcare services.
methodsThis descriptive and correlational study was conducted with 71 parents between November 2024 and January 2025. Data were collected online by using the Child and Parent Information Form, Information Form for Artificial Intelligence-Based Applications (For Parents), and Artificial Intelligence Anxiety Scale. Participants were recruited via web-based messaging applications using a convenience sampling method. Descriptive statistics and Mann-Whitney U, Kruskal-Wallis, and Spearman correlation tests were applied in the analyses; the significance level was set at p < 0.05.
resultsThe mean age of parents was 34.6 years, and 63.4% were mothers. Most participants (80.3%) reported insufficient knowledge about AI. The mean score on the AI Anxiety Scale was 113.9 (±30.14), indicating high anxiety levels. Scale scores differed significantly by age, education, employment status, internet health research, attitude toward AI use in hospitals, and trust in AI (p < 0.05). While 60.6% did not support AI use in hospitals, 73.2% had positive attitudes toward AI-supported robots for their children.
conclusionParents generally have limited knowledge about AI but high concerns, especially regarding data security and privacy. While attitudes toward AI use in hospitals were cautious, parents showed conditional acceptance of AI-supported applications for children. The findings underscore the importance of educational initiatives to support the safe and ethical use of AI in pediatric healthcare; however, these results should be interpreted with caution due to the relatively small sample size and the use of convenience sampling, which may limit the generalizability of the findings.
