Spatial pattern evolution and prediction scenario of habitat quality in typical fragile ecological region, China: A case study of the Yellow River floodplain area.
Review in Heliyon, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The Yellow River basin is an important area for China to implement ecological protection policies. Studying the habitat quality of the Yellow River floodplain area is of great significance to the ecological security and sustainable development of the entire basin. This study primarily investigated the spatial pattern of habitat quality in the Yellow River floodplain area from 2000 to 2020, then, we also simulated changes of habitat quality in 2025-2035 and analyzed the influencing factors by coupling the PLUS (Patch-generating Land Use Simulation) model, InVEST (Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Trade-offs) model and RF (Random Forest) model. The results showed that:(1) From 2000 to 2020, cultivated land and build-up land constituted an important part of the Yellow River floodplain area, and the growth rate of build-up land was fast. (2) We also found that the ecological land (forest land, grassland, waterbody) had a higher contribution value to the habitat quality, while the build-up land had a lower contribution value to the habitat quality. (3) Overall, the habitat quality of the floodplain area showed a degradation trend from 2000 to 2020. In addition, the regions with low habitat quality accounted for the major proportion. (4) Based on the calculation results of the Random Forest (RF) model, we found that topographical relief (TR) and land use intensity (LUI) were the two most important factors affecting habitat quality of the floodplain area. (5) According to the four scenarios from 2025 to 2035, it is found that the habitat quality level would be the highest under the ecological protection scenario, while under the urban development scenario its level would be the lowest. This study attempts to combine the RF model with PLUS model to improve the objectivity and accuracy of the future prediction scenario of habitat quality, which can provide scientific reference for ecological governance and policy formulation in the Yellow River floodplain area.
