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

This study simulates future runoff in the Yalong River Basin by first identifying optimal NEX-GDDP-CMIP6 climate model data through Taylor diagrams and skill scores. Basin-specific meteorological datasets were derived for hydrological modeling. Using DEM, vegetation, and soil data, we parameterized and constructed a Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC) model specifically calibrated for the basin. Daily and monthly runoff observations from Luning Station demonstrated model robustness during calibration and validation, yielding Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency coefficients exceeding 0.8 and relative errors below 15%. The selected FGOALS-g3 historical climate data further validated the framework, achieving NSE > 0.75 and relative error < 15%. Coupling FGOALS-g3 with VIC yielded monthly runoff projections for 2025-2100. Analysis indicates a significant growth trend under both SSP245 and SSP585 emission scenarios, with intensification accelerating after 2069 under SSP585. Runoff remains seasonally concentrated (June-October ≈ 75%; winter ≈ 8%), consistent with historical patterns. Spectral analysis reveals distinct multidecadal periodicities: SSP245 shows 11 (5-10a), 17 (10-20a), and 7 (30-40a) wet-dry cycles; SSP585 exhibits 24 (5-10a) and 6 (40-50a) cycles. Primary oscillation modes occur at 5a, 13a, and 29a (SSP245) versus 5a, 20a, and 48a (SSP585). These findings provide critical insights for future hydrological planning and water resource management in the basin.
