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
Land use/land cover is an important component in understanding the interactions of human activities with the environment and is necessary to recognize the changes in order to monitor and maintain a sustainable environment. The main objectives of this study were to analyze changes in land cover in the Nashe-watershed for the period 2010-2020, analyze household demographic and livelihood characteristics and identify the impact of the construction of the DAM and changes in land cover on the environment. Since the dam of the Nashe watershed was built in 2012, the socioeconomic characteristics of the area were used to interpret the causes of land use and land cover changes, which cause changes in their life and environment. Purposively 156 households were selected who were more than 40 years old from the total households (1222) in three kebele and for land use land cover of 2010, Land sat 7 were used whereas for 2020, land sat 8 was used. The socioeconomic data were analyzed with Excel and integrated with biophysical data. The 2010-2020 ten-year period showed that cultivated land and forest land were reduced from 73% to 62% and 18%-14%, respectively, and swampy areas fully converted to Water Bodies, alternately increasing Water Bodies and grazing land also converted from 43.9% to 54.5% and 0.04%-17.96% respectively. The reason for this change was the construction of dams, human encroachment, and expansion of cultivated land which were bringing LULCC in study area. However, government could not gave these people adequate compensation for their lands, properties that conquered by water. Hence, the Nashe watershed is identified as an area highly affected by land use and land cover change, the livelihoods were suffered by Dam construction, also environmental sustainability is hindering still now. Therefore it is necessary to closely monitor land use/land cover, giving consideration for HHs who affected by Dam, and to maintain a sustainable environmental resource for the future sustainable development is a critical issue in the Ethiopia in general, particularly in the study area.
