Research Progress on Light Therapy to Improve Depressive Symptoms of Bipolar Depression.
Review in Actas espanolas de psiquiatria, 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
Bipolar depression is the predominant and most disabling phase of bipolar disorder, featured by recurrent depressive episodes that impair psychosocial function and quality of life. Conventional pharmacotherapy has limited efficacy and carries a risk of mood destabilization (e.g., affective switch). Light therapy, a nonpharmacological chronotherapeutic intervention, has shown potential to improve bipolar depression symptoms by regulating circadian rhythms and mood regulating neural circuits. This review synthesized domestic and international research advances regarding light therapy for bipolar depression, focusing on the mechanisms of action, clinical efficacy, application protocols, safety, and limitations, aiming to provide evidence based clinical guidance for optimization of therapeutic strategies.
