Spatiotemporal Variation of Ecological Quality in the Yinshan Mountains Detected by MODIS Remote Sensing Indicators.

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
Arid and semiarid regions constitute the primary distribution areas of desert ecosystems, and the long-term, multifactor dynamic assessments of ecological quality can provide a scientific basis for the regional construction and sustainable development of desertified steppe ecosystems. To address the ecological vulnerability and monitoring needs of the Yinshan Mountains, we constructed a new MODIS-based Remote Sensing Ecological Indicator (MODIS RSEI) based on MODIS data from 2001 to 2023. This indicator integrates greenness (SAVI, Soil Adjusted Vegetation Index), humidity (SWCI, Surface Water Capacity Index), dryness (NDBBI, Normalized Difference Bareness and Built-up Index), heat (LST, Land Surface Temperature), as well as a salinity index (CSI, Comprehensive Salinity Index). Additionally, an optimal parameter geographic detector (OPGD) was employed to analyze the driving factors affecting ecological quality and their interactions. The results show that (1) the MODIS RSEI in the Yinshan Mountains exhibited a spatial pattern of "low in the west and high in the east," fluctuating temporally between poor (0.20-0.40), moderate (0.40-0.60), and good (0.60-0.80) levels; (2) analysis of the Hurst index indicated that 62.53% of the MODIS RSEI in the Yinshan Mountains exhibited sustainable stability; and (3) single-factor detection based on the OPGD showed that the spatial differentiation of MODIS RSEI was mainly affected by NPP (
