A Trusted AI-Driven Parent-Baby Companion App as a Perioperative Support Tool for Pediatric Surgical Practice.
Article in Cureus, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Pediatric surgical care increasingly relies on families to manage preparation, discharge instructions, symptom monitoring, hydration, pain control, and escalation decisions at home after brief encounters with the surgical team. A trusted, reliable, personalized AI-driven parent-baby companion app may help pediatric surgical practices extend perioperative support beyond the clinic or hospital by improving caregiver preparedness, standardizing education, reducing repetitive postoperative calls, structuring home-reported data, and supporting earlier recognition of complications. Existing pediatric digital health literature suggests that app-based preparation and postoperative monitoring can improve caregiver experience, support pain assessment, and reduce communication burden when tools are embedded into clinical workflows. This article outlines a practice-oriented framework for how such an app could support pediatric surgical care, with emphasis on calm parent guidance, procedure-specific recovery pathways, postoperative triage, and workflow integration. The app is best conceptualized as a conservative clinical support layer that reinforces surgeon-approved instructions rather than replacing clinician judgment.
