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

Urbanization and global warming have led to more frequent extreme heat events, highlighting the importance of Park Cooling Islands. This study analyzes the cooling effect (PCE) of 50 urban parks in Fuzhou to explore the relationship between park area and cooling effect. The results indicate that there is no simple positive correlation between park area and cooling effect. Specifically, while larger parks may have greater cooling potential, a larger area does not necessarily lead to better cooling effects. The optimal park area for cooling effect ranges from 0.594 to 56 hm
