1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Introduction: Despite advancements in sleep medicine, inadequate sleep habits among young children persist. Establishing appropriate sleep habits in early childhood is essential for supporting physical, emotional, and cognitive development. However, scalable and personalized behavioral interventions for caregivers in community settings remain scarce, particularly AI-enabled systems designed for real-world implementation. Methods: This study evaluated adherence, perceived usefulness, and feasibility of Nenne Navi-AI among 50 caregivers recruited in Hirosaki City, Japan, through community health checkups, childcare facilities, and public advertisements. The culturally tailored application integrates supervised machine-learning models with rule-based algorithms to provide personalized guidance and ongoing support for promoting healthier sleep habits. Results: During the 6-month intervention, only 3 of 50 caregivers (6%) experienced continuous 3-month data-entry lapses, with no withdrawals. Significant pre-post improvements were observed in children's number of awakenings after sleep onset and subjective sleep quality ratings. Subgroup analyses suggested improvements among children with poorer baseline sleep habits (≥0.5 SD worse than the sample mean). Post-intervention assessments confirmed high caregiver acceptability, satisfaction, and reduced parenting stress. Conclusions: Nenne Navi-AI demonstrates high feasibility with excellent 6-month adherence and favorable usability feedback. The system shows promise for improving early childhood sleep (night-waking), enhances caregiving experiences, reduces negative parenting emotions, and provides a scalable framework for future AI-enabled pediatric sleep interventions.
