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

This article argues for the importance of integrating a mobility perspective into urban greenspace planning and practice related to the 2024 EU Nature Restoration Law. Street greenery can play an important multifunctional role in promoting ecosystem services and functions, sustainable mobility, and human health and well-being. However, planners need more evidence on how street vegetation affects health and well-being during everyday active mobility, as well as what type, where and for whom to enhance vegetation. We discuss current advancements and gaps in literature related to these topics, and identify key research priorities to support restoration policy and practice. These include: moving beyond dominant scientific thinking of being in place to moving through space in understanding greenery exposure and experience; use of multiple exposure metrics with attention to temporal dynamics; integration of objective and subjective assessments; and investigating further the role of street greenery in reducing environmental injustices.
