Assessing sleep, cognition and overnight memory performance in neurotypically developing youth in a children's hospital.
Article in Frontiers in sleep, 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
Childhood and adolescence are times of significant maturation for cognitive abilities and cortical neurophysiology, and changes in sleep brain activity across development reflect these maturation trajectories. Furthermore, sleep is known to support changes in cognition across the lifespan, including in domains of memory, emotion regulation and executive functioning. Driven by our interest in establishing mechanistic links between changes in sleep neurophysiology and cognitive/mood symptoms in pediatric populations, we aim to establish research protocols for examining sleep-dependent cognition in a wide range of pediatric populations. As a first step, we have established a data acquisition protocol that pairs measurement of overnight memory changes with polysomnography involving a full electroencephalography (EEG) montage and standardized clinical assessments of cognition. While this is typical of a cognitive sleep laboratory, we are now executing it in the context of a pediatric hospital. The protocol is essential in creating an inclusive research program where children and adolescents with a range of conditions can participate in research in a context that is safe and tailored to their needs (a sleep center in a pediatric hospital). This article describes our first protocol, developed for typically developing youth aged 8-19 years, including collection of subjective and objective measures of sleep and cognition, emotion regulation and executive functioning, and overnight changes in memory performance. We also share strategies for ensuring data quality in our protocol.
