How regional characteristics drive various human mobility types across Europe.
Article in Nature communications, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Spatial mobility of people between regions is critically shaped by socioeconomic landscapes, influencing and being influenced by regional characteristics, especially amid the on-going green and digital transitions. However, this is often studied through the lens of a single mobility type, overlooking the diverse factors driving different forms of movement. This study examines the distinct impacts of regional characteristics on seven types of mobility-permanent migration, long-term and short-term student mobility, seasonal work, long-distance and cross-border commuting, and multilocal living arrangements-across European regions. By integrating data from the Labor Force Survey, Erasmus + , and Twitter, we show how regional characteristics have different effects regarding each mobility type influenced by unique combinations of economic, environmental, and social factors. These differences underscore the limitations of a one-size-fits-all approach in addressing interregional spatial mobility, highlight the need for policies tailored both to specific types of mobility and regional characteristics. Considering these insights, we present avenues for targeted policy recommendations towards enhancing regional attractiveness and supporting balanced territorial development.
