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

Hainan Province is a key region for investigating carbon balance dynamics in tropical ecosystems. This study used the integrated valuation of ecosystem services and tradeoffs (InVEST) model and an improved net ecosystem productivity (NEP) model to simulate the spatial distribution of carbon balance in Hainan Province's terrestrial ecosystems and identify key driving factors. Results show that carbon balance values are higher in the central region and lower in the periphery, increasing from coastal to inland areas. The central region, with its elevated terrain and dense forest cover, shows greater capacity for carbon absorption and conversion, leading to higher carbon balance. In contrast, coastal areas exhibit lower carbon stocks, mainly due to human disturbances. Land-use changes driven by humans are the primary factor shaping the spatial distribution of carbon balance. Thus, green planning and development should prioritize high carbon-emission areas to restore and enhance ecosystem carbon sink functions.
