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

As a major coal-producing area, the Shanxi section of the Yellow River Basin has been significantly affected by coal mining activities in the local ecological environment. Therefore, an in-depth study of the ecological evolution in this region holds great scientific significance and practical value. In this study, the Shanxi section of the Yellow River Basin, including its planned coal mining area, was selected as the research subject. An improved remotely sensed ecological index model (NRSEI) integrating the remotely sensed ecological index (RSEI) and net primary productivity (NPP) of vegetation was constructed utilizing the Google Earth Engine platform. The NRSEI time series data from 2003 to 2022 were calculated, and the Sen + Mann-Kendall analysis method was employed to comprehensively assess the ecological environment quality and its evolutionary trends in the study area. The findings in this paper indicate the following data: (1) The contribution of the first principal component of the NRSEI model is more than 70%, and the average correlation coefficient is higher than 0.79. The model effectively integrates the information of multiple ecological indicators and enhances the applicability of regional ecological environment evaluation. (2) Between 2003 and 2022, the ecological environment quality in the Shanxi section of the Yellow River Basin showed an overall upward trend, with the average NRSEI value experiencing phases of fluctuation, increase, decline, and stabilization. The NRSEI values in non-coal mining areas consistently remained higher than those in coal mining areas. (3) Over 60% of the areas have improved ecological conditions, especially in coal mining areas. (4) The impact of coal mining on the ecological environment is significant within a 6 km radius, while the effects gradually diminish in the 6 to 10 km range. This study not only offers a reliable methodology for evaluating ecological environment quality on a large scale and over a long time series but also holds significant guiding value for the ecological restoration and sustainable development of the Shanxi section of the Yellow River Basin and its coal mining area.
