1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The Ebinur Lake watershed is an important ecological barrier for environmental changes in the Junggar Basin in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region (XUAR). Due to the tremendous changes in the underlying surface environment of the watershed in the past few decades, the watershed has become a typical region of ecological degradation. Drought affects the surface dynamics and characterizes the regional dry and wet environments, while the dynamic variation in lakes and vegetation are indicators of dynamic changes in land surfaces. Thus, a quantitative assessment of the response of lakes and vegetation to drought conditions at multiple temporal scales is critical for assessing the potential impacts of regional climate change on terrestrial ecosystems and ecological restoration. The standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI), the spectral water index (NDWI) and the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) were used to analyse the evolution of drought, the variation in lake surface area and the sustainable variation in vegetation. Furthermore, we quantitatively evaluated the response patterns of vegetation to droughts of multiple temporal scales (1-, 3-, 6-, 12-, 24-month). The conclusions showed that (1) overall, the area of Ebinur Lake experienced drastic fluctuations, and the lake area has decreased significantly since 2003, with a dynamic area of 817.63 km
