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

Currently, suburban rural areas in China are experiencing low-efficiency issues in production-living-ecological spaces (PLES) amid rapid urbanization. Existing research pays insufficient attention to trade-offs among multiple spatial efficiencies and often lacks integrated analytical frameworks. This study aims to enhance PLES utilization efficiency in multi-input/output systems. Using Nanjing as a case, spatial utilization efficiency was measured through data envelopment analysis (DEA), and distribution patterns were identified via geographic information system (GIS) analysis. Gini coefficient decomposition was applied to analyze spatiotemporal disparities, while a triangular model quantified interrelationships among PLES. From 2011 to 2021, PLES utilization efficiency among townships rose by 48.14% on average, with 17 shifting from imbalance to coordination; 49% achieved primary coordination, and 9 reached high-quality coordination. The study developed a multi-criteria evaluation framework, improving the precision and coordination of rural governance and spatial management, and providing support for sustainable rural development.
