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

Deltaic cities are highly vulnerable to climate change due to low elevation, dense populations, and critical infrastructure. This study presents an integrated assessment of compound climate risks in the Port Said Urban Region, Egypt, evaluating seven key hazards-coastal erosion, flooding, saltwater intrusion, abiotic stress, drought, heat waves, and port disruption-across present, near-term (2030-2040), and long-term (2050-2070) horizons. Using CMIP5 downscaled projections, hydrodynamic reanalysis, and remote sensing, the analysis compares RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 scenarios. Models are calibrated against 50 years of shoreline change and validated with tide gauge data (r = 0.83). Results highlight rapid land subsidence (4.1-5.3 mm/year) as a critical risk amplifier, accelerating sea-level impacts. A "Critical Risk Triangle" of overlapping hazards coincides with major development zones, placing significant investments at risk. The study proposes risk-informed planning and adaptive strategies, offering a replicable framework for vulnerable coastal cities.
