Missing the Mix: Perceiving Code-Switches as a Mechanism for Bilingual Adaptation.
Article in Child development perspectives, 2026. 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
Code-switching is a common and natural aspect of many bilingual individuals' everyday language use. For many infants growing up in bilingual environments, such language mixing forms may be a regular part of their daily input. However, the frequency and type of code-switching can vary widely by caregivers' language proficiency, context, and social norms. As early as infancy, increased exposure to code-switches in bilingual environments promotes differences in attention at the behavioral, physiological, and neural levels. In this article, we propose that exposure to code-switching may act as a mechanism driving cognitive adaptations in bilingual children's attention, but more evidence is needed on children's exposure to code-switching. Robust measures of bilingual experiences focusing on qualitative and quantitative aspects of code-switching are necessary to deepen our understanding of the variations in bilingual cognitive development.
