Physiological restorative benefits of different types of urban green spaces: a threshold model approach.

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: As urbanization accelerates, understanding the specific health benefits of green spaces is crucial. This study investigates the physiological restorative effects of Urban Parks (UP), Remnant Forests (RF), and Wetland Parks (WP). Methods: We employed a novel physiological health effects (PHE) threshold model and EEG data to analyze participant responses to short-term exposure in these environments, establishing efficiency and benefit thresholds. Results: While all types provided benefits, they exhibited distinct patterns. UP demonstrated the most rapid and stable physiological stress reduction. Conversely, RF and WP elicited heightened physiological alertness (likely due to dense vegetation) but were subjectively perceived as having higher restorative potential due to biodiversity. Discussion: The study highlights a divergence between objective physiological recovery and subjective psychological preference. We conclude that urban planning must incorporate both ecological and sensory dimensions to maximize public health benefits across different green space types.
