Evidence for Environment-Specific Pace-of-Life Syndromes.
Article in Ecology and evolution, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The pace-of-life syndrome (POLS) hypothesis posits that consistent individual differences in behaviour are integrated with physiology and life-history traits such that behaviour mediates how individuals resolve life-history trade-offs. For instance, individuals exhibiting higher exploration tendencies may accelerate reproduction by gaining access to resources more quickly, but this same behaviour could reduce survival through increased risks of predation and competition. While empirical support for POLS remains mixed, recent theory emphasises the role of environmental context in resolving some inconsistencies. Resource quality, in particular, may strongly mediate context-dependent effects, yet its functional role has received little empirical attention. To address this, we monitored the complete life-histories of 344 female house mice (
