LAMAS (Light, Activity, Meals, & Sleep) timings & burnout, anxiety, and depression in teachers: Protocol for a cross-sectional study.
Article in PloS one, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundTeachers play a key role in society and make up ~1.5-2.5% of the working population. Yet, there is a teacher shortage in many countries and preventive occupational medicine strategies are called for. The primary objective of this project is to explore single and joint associations of the diurnal distributions of light, activity, meal, and sleep timing and work-related exposures with severity scores of burnout, anxiety, and depression in a cross-sectional study of secondary school teachers in Germany. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: The study will involve a one-time collection of questionnaire-based data on sleep, burnout, anxiety, and depression, sensor-based data on light and activity over one week, and diary-based data on work, sleep, and meals over one week. time. The protocol has been registered on the Open Science Framework (https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/U4R5M). DISCUSSION: From a preventive occupational medicine perspective, identifying where and how light, activity, meal, and sleep timing may be targeted to mitigate burnout, anxiety, and depression could inform measures to be tested not only at the individual (micro) level, but also at systems (meso-institutions; macro-policy and society) levels.
