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

Extreme weather events like tropical cyclones can trigger large numbers of landslides across vast areas due to extreme rainfall. Cyclone Gabrielle in February 2023 triggered ~ 800,000 landslides across the North Island of New Zealand and is one of the most extreme landslide-triggering storms recorded to date. While climate change is expected to increase the intensity of future tropical cyclones, whether this translates into increased landslide numbers from extratropical cyclonic movement towards the New Zealand landmass remains contentious. Here we show that under a + 2 °C warming scenario, a Cyclone Gabrielle-like storm could trigger up to ~ 90,000 more landslides than the 2023 event, while the area experiencing extreme landslide densities might increase by up to 34%. Our findings suggest significant increases in landslide hazards due to climate change, providing an essential evidence base for land-use planning and targeted mitigation efforts in locations where landslide hazards are projected to intensify.
