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

Ecosystem services (ESs) are extremely important, specifically in urban areas. Urban forests, even representing a pivotal role in global sustainability, have been converted into different human-modified landscapes. This paper aims to analyze the ES provided by the urban areas of 25 cities of the Atlantic Forest in Brazil. We used i-Tree Canopy v.7.1 to classify the land use. We quantified the monetary benefits of the urban vegetation and used socioeconomic variables (i.e., total population, population density, Human Development Index (HDI), and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita) to analyze if the ecosystem services or the land uses are associated with this. Our data reveal that together, the cities studied sequester a significant total of 235.3 kilotonnes of carbon and a substantial 864.82 kilotonnes of CO
