Spatiotemporal evolution and mechanisms of tourism efficiency and its decomposition: Evidence from 63 counties in Zhejiang, China.
Article in PloS one, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Although efficiency analysis could reflect the state and quality of tourism's economic development, no research has been conducted investigating the spatiotemporal evolution and mechanisms of county-level tourism efficiency. We quantified tourism efficiency and its decomposition in 63 counties of Zhejiang, employing the bootstrap data envelopment analysis (DEA), hot spot analysis, and quantile regression to explore the spatiotemporal evolution and influencing factors of tourism efficiency, and examine its driving and constraining mechanisms. The results uncovered obvious upward trends in the tourism efficiency of Zhejiang's counties, with the mean value increasing from 0.285 to 0.688. Compared with scale efficiency, the influence of technological efficiency on the growth of comprehensive efficiency increased remarkably. Significant differences were evident in the spatial distributions of the identified hot and cold spots of comprehensive efficiency, which were respectively distributed in northern and southern Zhejiang. The distributions of decomposition efficiency were found to be spatially dependent. The driving mechanism of tourism efficiency involve two driving influences and two constraining influences, including economy and resource driving, market and traffic driving, industry and traffic constraining, and market and industry constraining. The findings of this study contribute to understanding of tourism efficiency growth in regional destinations and provide insights for strategic policymaking in various counties of Zhejiang.
