Temperature amplifies the effect of anthropogenic light on foraging common pipistrelle bats.
Article in Biology letters, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Anthropogenic light affects the presence and behaviour of many species. Bats are generally repelled by light, but some fast-flying and agile species opportunistically forage on insects attracted to light sources. As insect activity is dependent on ambient temperature, prey abundance around light sources likely varies between cold and warm nights. Little is known on how the interacting effects of ambient temperature and anthropogenic light influence bat activity. We recorded activity of bats foraging around experimental light posts emitting different light spectra (white, green and red light) during 6 years for 2726 full nights to test how ambient temperature affects foraging activity of the abundant common pipistrelle (
