An analysis of rodent density patterns and its spatial-temporal correlations using geographically and temporally weighted regression in southeastern China.

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
Introduction: Rodents are significant vectors, harboring diverse pathogenic microorganisms which can spread a variety of infectious diseases. Surveillance on rodent density patterns should be prioritized as early warning indicators for prevention and control of infectious diseases. We aimed to analyze spatial and temporal heterogeneity of rodent density patterns in Zhejiang Province, and analyze the spatial and temporal correlations between rodent density, meteorological, land use and vegetation factors. Methods: Collect rodent surveillance data, meteorological factors, and vegetation factors in Zhejiang Province from 2019 to 2023. Analyze the temporal and spatial distribution of rodent density patterns. Employ the GTWR model to analyze the spatial and temporal correlations between rodent density, meteorological, land use and vegetation factors. Results: The rodent density in southern Zhejiang Province was higher than that in northern Zhejiang Province, and the species richness of wild rodents also exceeded that in northern Zhejiang Province. The effects of meteorological and vegetation factors on rodent density varied across geographical spatial distributions, which might primarily be related to the distribution range of rodent species in different habitat sites. Discussions: Meteorological and vegetation factors could influence the rodent density, particularly that of wild rodents, by offering a suitable environment for growth and development as well as food sources.
