Balancing economic growth and environmental conservation through the optimization of rail transit routes for sustainable development.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
Drawing from the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), this study offers a framework for optimizing rail transit routes, balancing economic benefits with environmental preservation. Using the Bivariate Choropleth-Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (BC-MCDA) model, we categorize global regions into economic benefit, environmental conservation, high-conflict, and low-conflict zones. Specifically, 7.42% are identified as economic benefit zones, suitable for rail transit expansion with minimal environmental impact. Meanwhile, 16.14% are environmental conservation zones, requiring preservation and 76% are low-conflict zones, where maintaining existing land use is advised. Only 0.62% are high-conflict zones, demanding careful planning. Addressing how to utilize land more effectively and sustainably in transportation development to foster economic growth while avoiding harm to biodiversity and ecosystems, this study provides actionable insights. It advances sustainable transportation planning by integrating environmental and economic considerations, offering practical guidance for aligning infrastructure projects with global sustainability goals.
