The Circadian Response to Evening Light Spectra in Early Childhood: Preliminary Insights.
Article in Journal of biological rhythms, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Although the sensitivity of the circadian system to the characteristics of light (e.g., biological timing, intensity, duration, spectrum) has been well studied in adults, data in early childhood remain limited. Utilizing a crossover, within-subjects design, we examined differences in the circadian response to evening light exposure at two different correlated color temperatures (CCT) in preschool-aged children. Healthy, good sleeping children (
