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
Introduction: This study aimed to examine the associations of exposure to light while sleeping at night and different sleep durations with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) among preschool children in China. Methods: A cross-sectional study including 4197 preschool children (2190 boys and 2007 girls) was conducted in 2021. Lamplight exposure during sleep and sleep duration were collected via a validated questionnaire. ADHD was assessed using the Conners Parental Symptom Questionnaire (PSQ). Associations of exposure to light while sleeping and sleep duration with ADHD were examined by multivariable logistic regression models. Results: The overall prevalence of ADHD was 3.7%. Compared to the children who slept with the lamplight off at night, those who slept with the lamplight on ≥3 nights/week were more likely to have ADHD after multivariable adjustment (OR=3.37; 95% CI: 1.95, 5.82; Discussion: Lamplight exposure during sleep at night was positively associated with ADHD among preschool children. Also, both sleep duration of <10 hours/day and >12 hours/day increased the likelihood of ADHD. Our novel findings suggest the importance of sleeping habit on the prevention of ADHD. Prospective and interventional studies are warranted to elucidate the observed associations.
