Artificial light at night during early development directly affects embryonic but not larval quality in a wild coral reef fish.

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
Artificial light at night (ALAN) is an emergent yet already global form of sensory pollution. However, its effects on marine environments remain poorly understood compared to those on terrestrial ecosystems. Low-latitude ecosystems such as shallow coral reefs might be at greater risk as they experience little change in annual day length and reef organisms rely on moonlight illumination as a zeitgeber for critical biological processes. Moreover, many coral reef fish are demersal spawners, making them vulnerable to the effects of ALAN from early life. We performed a field experiment to determine whether artificial light affects the quality of fish embryos and newly hatched larvae by exposing wild nests of the orange-fin anemonefish (
