Effects of light pollution on photoperiod-driven seasonality.
Review in Hormones and behavior, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Changes to photoperiod (day length) occur in anticipation of seasonal environmental changes, altering physiology and behavior to maximize fitness. In order for photoperiod to be useful as a predictive factor of temperature or food availability, day and night must be distinct. The increasing prevalence of exposure to artificial light at night (ALAN) in both field and laboratory settings disrupts photoperiodic time measurement and may block development of appropriate seasonal adaptations. Here, we review the effects of ALAN as a disruptor of photoperiodic time measurement and season-specific adaptations, including reproduction, metabolism, immune function, and thermoregulation.
