Environments "develop": Infant motor development can inform the study of physical space.

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
Infant development is tied to the physical environment. Indeed, all infant behavior-movement, exploration, object play, social interaction-occurs in the context of a physical space. Nonetheless, researchers know surprisingly little about how the environments that infants inhabit come to be. Researchers in other fields of study (e.g., architectural design, urban planning, classroom curation, playground construction) have focused on space as a construct of interest and gleaned important information about interactions between the composition of spaces and the behaviors of those who occupy them. In particular, the organization of a space (its contents and layout) can both create and constrain opportunities for a host of behaviors for infants and children. This review presents an integrated synthesis of multiple literatures regarding the physical environment and its interactions with human behavior. I argue for a developmental approach for the study of
