Exploring the spatiotemporal trends and influencing factors of human settlement suitability in Hunan province traditional villages.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. 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 conservation and sustainable development of traditional villages have raised global attention in the context of rapid urbanization and modernization. Taking 703 traditional villages in Hunan Province as an example, this study first constructed a Traditional Village Human Settlement Suitability (TVHSS) evaluation system based on the Pressure-State-Response (PSR) model. Then, the entropy weighting method was used to assess the spatiotemporal evolution of TVHSS from 2005 to 2020, while the Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) model was employed to analyze the influencing factors. The results indicate that the overall TVHSS score increased from 0.521 to 0.776 from 2005 to 2020, with a spatial distribution characterized by lower suitability in the northwest and higher suitability in the southeast. During this period, the pressure subsystem experienced an increase, peaking at 0.058 in 2015 before declining to 0.055 in 2020. Meanwhile, the state subsystem remained relatively stable, with scores slightly decreasing from 0.040 in 2005 to 0.033 in 2020. In contrast, the response subsystem showed a continuous upward trend, rising from 0.430 in 2005 to 0.688 in 2020. The distance to educational institutions, degree of relief, distance to water, and distance on intangible cultural heritage sites have the highest effects on TVHSS. These findings provide a scientific basis for the conservation and sustainable development of traditional villages and offer a replicable analytical framework for similar contexts globally. By addressing the complex interactions between environmental, social, and economic factors, this study contributes to the global discourse on rural sustainability, offering insights that can inform policy-making and guide the preservation of cultural heritage in the face of modernization pressures.
