Lighting for work: a study on the effect of underground low-light environment on miners' physiology.
Article in Environmental science and pollution research international, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Low-light environment affects human physiology, psychology, and behavior. It causes errors in work and increases accidents. In this study, we built a coal mine lighting simulation experiment system. The system not only includes an experimental environment simulation system and a physiological indicator test system, but also adds a miners' working simulation system. We aim to study the effect of different illumination levels (0lx, 10lx, 50lx, 100lx, and 200lx) on three indicators: heart rate, electrodermal activity, and respiration. The results show illuminance has a significant negative correlation with all the above three indicators. Heart rate seems to be most significantly affected by illuminance, and it changes significantly from the normal level (200lx) at 50lx. By contrast, the respiratory rate and electrodermal activity change significantly at 10lx. When the illuminance is 50~100lx, all the three indicators return to the normal level. The results suggest that coal mine illumination should be around 50~100lx. When the minimum illumination is less than 10lx, accidents tend to increase.
