Feeding a Diurnal Rodent at Night Induces Weight Loss and Body Temperature Reduction Without Food-Anticipatory Activity.
Article in Journal of biological rhythms, 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
An important component of behavioral plasticity is the ability of animals to shift the timing of daily or seasonal activities to accommodate changing physical and biotic conditions, a phenomenon known as temporal niche switching. Temporal niche switching in response to experimentally altered food availability in the laboratory is often accompanied by locomotor activity that anticipates the time of daily food access ("food-anticipatory activity" = FAA), which reflects the plasticity of the mammalian circadian system. Most FAA studies have been conducted in nocturnal rodents, reporting robust anticipatory increases in locomotor activity and physiological variables such as body temperature before food presentation, but this kind of plasticity has not been tested in strictly diurnal species. In the present study, we show that the diurnal antelope ground squirrel (AGS;
