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

The landscape consists of a mosaic of interacting ecosystem elements, which maintain stability and aid in sustaining crucial services. Unplanned developmental activities leading to the transition of pervious surfaces into impervious/paved surfaces have significant implications for the urban climate, mainly through the phenomenon of urban heat islands (UHIs). Changes in landscape integrity could be quantified through land use (land cover) assessment and urban heat island effect through spatial computation of land surface temperature (LST). The current research uses multi-resolution remote sensing data to evaluate UHIs with landscape dynamics and assess the complex spatial interrelationships in heterogeneous urban landscapes at micro-levels. The composition of pervious and impervious surfaces at the micro-level plays a pivotal role in regulating thermal comfort. Landscape configuration at microlevels, predominantly barren (C1 class) and urban (C2 class) areas, constitute hotspots with higher temperatures. UHI was mapped through the urban hotspot and Urban thermal field variance index (UTFVI) analysis. Urban hotspot analysis shows the 15.41 km
