Sleep biomarkers of seasonal vulnerability in major depressive episodes: a clinical study using actigraphy and polysomnography.
Article in International journal of clinical and health psychology : IJCHP. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Seasonal affective disorder or major depressive episode (MDE) with winter seasonal pattern is a severe form of recurrent depressive disorder persisting for at least 40 % of the year. This seasonal vulnerability may involve specific chronobiological and sleep regulation disturbances, however, actigraphy and polysomnography studies reported conflicting and inconclusive findings. In this context, we hypothesized that individuals with MDE who exhibit higher vulnerability to seasonal changes display distinct chronobiological and sleep regulation disturbances. We investigated how sleep and circadian rhythms, assessed through subjective markers (
