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

Seismic landslides are dangerous natural hazards that can cause immense damage to human lives and property. Susceptibility assessment of earthquake-triggered landslides provides the scientific basis and theoretical foundation for disaster emergency management in engineering projects. However, landslide susceptibility assessment requires a massive amount of historical landslide data. Evidence of past landslide activities may be lost due to changes in geographical conditions and human factors over time. The lack of landslide data poses difficulties in assessing landslide susceptibility. The aim of this study is to establish a generalized seismic landslide susceptibility assessment model for applying it to the Dayong highway in the Chenghai area, where earthquakes occur frequently but with a lack of landslide data. The landslide data used comes from the 2014 Ludian Ms (Surface wave magnitude) 6.5 earthquake in a region with geographical conditions similar to those in the Chenghai area. The influencing factors considered include elevation, slope, slope aspect, distance to streams, distance to faults, geology, terrain wetness index, normalized difference vegetation index, epicenter distance and peak ground acceleration. The frequency ratio method is used to eliminate influencing factors with poor statistical dispersion of landslides. Principal component analysis (PCA) is utilized to reduce the dimensionality of landslide conditioning factors and to improve the transferability of the assessment model to different regions. A support vector machine model is used to establish the susceptibility assessment model. The results show that the accuracy of the PCA-SVM model reaches 93.6%. The landslide susceptibility of the Chenghai area is classified into 5 classes, with the "Very high" landslide susceptibility class accounting for 0.63%. The 13-km section in the middle of the Dayong highway, which accounts for 8.9%, is identified as the high-risk area most obviously impacted by seismic landslides. This study provides a new approach for seismic landslide susceptibility assessment in areas lacking in landslide inventory data.
