The environmental effects of trade openness in developing countries: conflict or cooperation?
Article in Environmental science and pollution research international, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
Identifying environmental consequences of international trade has a crucial role in constructing and planning strategies of any country, especially in developing countries that are currently witnessing a significant increase in trade openness; however, little efforts are made to investigate the environmental consequences of trade openness. The paper attempts to investigate the dynamic relationship between trade openness and environmental pollutants incorporating potential factors affecting environmental quality in 66 developing economies over the period 1971-2017. This article employs the powerful approach two-step generalized method of moment's estimators with a finite sample correction to obtain more accurate inference. The key empirical results are as follows: (1) trade openness may be harmful for the environment while confirming the existence of an environmental Kuznets curve hypothesis. (2) An increase in pollutants, namely carbon dioxide emissions, ambient particulate matter and nitrous oxide emissions in the previous period, is associated with a rise in pollutants in the future suggesting that if no action in reducing pollutants is taken, environmental quality is worse. (3) Energy consumption, financial development and industrialization have a significant contribution to deteriorating environment. The implications of these results also are discussed and proposed for developing economies in this research.
