Circadian Rhythms in Aging and Age-Related Neurogenerative Disease.
Article in Current sleep medicine reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Purpose of Review: Age-related changes in the circadian timing system may play a role in the development of disorders in older age. We review key aspects of the human circadian system that change with aging, discuss recent evidence of how changes in sleep and circadian rhythms manifest in neurodegenerative diseases, and summarize research on new therapies. Recent Findings: Several mechanisms have been proposed to underlie age-related changes in sleep and circadian rhythmicity. These mechanisms include changes in the suprachiasmatic nucleus, melatonin production, and light sensitivity as well as impaired glymphatic drainage, buildup of amyloid-beta, hypoxia from sleep-disordered breathing, and increased levels of orexin. While light-based therapies and lifestyle interventions have been under investigation for years, newer interventions include treatment with orexin antagonists and gamma stimulation to improve sleep and circadian rhythmicity. Summary: Despite growing interest, our understanding of how sleep and circadian rhythms contribute to the development of age-related neurodegenerative diseases is still limited. More research is needed to understand the bidirectional relationship between circadian rhythms, sleep, and neurodegenerative diseases to develop targeted interventions.
