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 composition and configuration of landscapes are critical important to design effective approaches to mitigate urban thermal environment in the urbanization process. In this research, land use maps and land surface temperature (LST) retrieval were derived in Nanchang city of central China based on product datasets and the thermal infrared band of Landsat. The results showed that the thermal environment of Nanchang had become worse over the past two decades, that is, the proportion of area of the extremely low temperature zone (ELTZ) decreased from 4.39 to 0.77% from 2001 to 2020, and that of medium temperature zone (MTZ) reduced by 20%, whereas those of the high temperature zone (HTZ) and the extremely high temperature zone (EHTZ) increased sharply after 2001, and by 2020, the area ratio increased by 11% and 7.16%, respectively. The agricultural land (AL) area decreased from 68.44 to 49.69%, was gradually replaced by construction land (CL). The CL occupied the largest proportion in EHTZ, HTZ and slight high temperature zone (SHTZ); water landscape (WL) and green land (GL) occupied the largest proportion in ELTZ, low temperature zone (LTZ); and AL occupied the largest proportion in SHTZ, MTZ, and slight low temperature zone (SLTZ). Landscape configuration also obviously impacted on LST. The model fitting was well (R = 0.87) between land use area and LST by multiple regression analysis. The significant correlation between LST and six landscape pattern indices of CL (p < 0.01) indicated that the larger percent (PLANT, R = 0.78) and the more concentrate (LPI, R = 0.73) of CL implied the higher LST, while the more fragment (NP, R = - 0.45), dispersed and complex shape (R = - 0.35) were benefit to relieve LST. Contrastively, the larger percent and the more concentrated and complex shape distribution of AL, GL and WL, the lower LST (p < 0.01). In addition, LST had closely correlation with landscape level indices such as aggregation degree (AI, R = 0.44) and diversity (SHDI, R = - 0.60) (p < 0.01).
