Illuminating the path to more equitable access to urban parks.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. 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
Parks are a crucial element of urban landscapes. Understanding the role of the built environment in terms of park accessibility is vital for promoting travel equity and shaping public policies to improve access to urban parks. This study employs a geospatial artificial intelligence (GeoAI) approach to examine the impact of the built environment on park accessibility at both macro and micro levels. We find that accessibility to urban parks varies significantly across different travel modes, with walking being the least equitable due to its most clustered distribution pattern. While the macro-level built environment provides substantial explanatory power for accessibility across travel modes, our GeoAI-based analysis offers a more nuanced understanding of streetscape qualities, by closely reflecting a more realistic human perception of the built environment. These qualities - street network interconnectivity, safety, openness, spaciousness, greenery, and distinctive signage - significantly correlate with enhanced park accessibility across all travel modes, thereby complementing macro-level factors. Ultimately, this study suggests that placing emphasis on multimodal travel can enhance travel equity, thus providing the relevant authorities and policymakers with cost-effective strategies for improving park accessibility.
