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

Coastal hospitality, encompassing both accommodation (hotels, holiday rentals, short-term rental platforms) and service establishments (restaurants, bars, tourism-oriented retail and leisure), along the Northern Adriatic coast exhibits fundamentally different spatial risk patterns across sectors. This study demonstrates this divergence by developing a dual-component Hospitality Risk Index (HRI) applied to 10,022 establishments across 400 km of coastline in Veneto and Emilia-Romagna, combined with fuzzy clustering and H3 hexagonal spatial indexing. The HRI integrates hazard projections (sea-level rise under IPCC scenarios), exposure metrics (elevation, coastal proximity, spatial density), and vulnerability indicators (structural characteristics, economic positioning). Accommodation risk differentiates by hazard geography: converted residential properties concentrated in the Venice lagoon system (HRI = 0.422) score substantially higher than purpose-built coastal hotels (HRI = 0.231), a pattern driven by differential hazard exposure that survives removal of the vulnerability component. Service risk follows a simpler spatial logic, with beachfront establishments showing highest scores (HRI = 0.440) regardless of economic positioning. These sectoral differences manifest as geographically concentrated hotspots, with service risk exhibiting two- to four-fold stronger spatial clustering than accommodation risk. External validation against two coastal flood events (Venice 2019, Emilia-Romagna 2022) confirms that flood-proximate establishments score significantly higher (p < 0.001), with the difference driven by the exposure component. The framework provides a spatial baseline for monitoring vulnerability configurations over time and offers a transferable open-source methodology for comparable Mediterranean coastal destinations.
