Interventional Study.
No findings were extractable from the material analysed.
Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
The source did not state who this applies to in practice.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
This record has not been graded across any dimension yet. Treat the label above as provisional and read the source.
What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.

Brief summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the Smart Environmental Lighting (SmartEnLite) can help improve behaviors and sleep among residents with dementia in nursing homes. The main questions it aims to answer are: * What is the effect of SmartEnLite on mood and behaviors? * What is the effect of SmartEnLite on sleep? * Would the effect of SmartEnLite on sleep affect its effect on mood and behaviors? Researchers will compare the SmartEnLite to the usual light in nursing homes to see if the SmartEnLite works to improve behaviors and sleep in nursing home residents with dementia. Participants will: * Participate in the study for 13 weeks with SmartEnLite for 4 weeks and their usual light. * Wear a sensor for 13 weeks to measure their sleep and light exposure. * Be observed for mood, behaviors, and reactions to the lights every other week.
