100-m resolution Age-Stratified Population Estimation from the 2020 China Census by Township (ASPECT).
Article in Scientific data, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Gridded population datasets are instrumental for modeling the interactions between human and the environment at fine spatial scales. Many of these datasets are downscaled from source data of aggregated population counts by census units. Here, we introduce an Age-Stratified Population Estimation from the 2020 China Census by Township (ASPECT), estimating total population and population by age groups (0-14, 15-59, 60-64, ≥65 years old) at 100 m spatial resolution as of year 2020. ASPECT uses the updated source data from the most recent Census of year 2020, incorporating population counts and age structures from nearly all townships (n = 40,718) - the finest spatial unit for which the 2020 Census data are publicly available. Therefore, ASPECT likely provides improved accuracy in gridded population estimation when compared with datasets based on county-level data such as WorldPop. Furthermore, ASPECT presents greater spatial variations in the estimated population age structure than those from other existing datasets. These advantages of ASPECT allow for more accurate estimations on population exposure to environmental hazards and access to public services.
