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

The growth stimulating effect of energy has been long established in economic literature. Consequently, researchers and policy makers are trying to identify socio-economic determinants of energy consumption in both developed and developing countries to conserve energy. In the present study, we attempt to examine the non-linear and asymmetric effect of human capital and income disparity on energy demand in India over the period 1970-2014. The findings propose long-run co-integrating relationship between human capital, income inequality, and energy demand in the presence of asymmetric framework. It is found that increased level of human capital results in energy conservation as it decreases the energy demand, and higher income gap also results in lower energy demand as poor section may have restricted access to energy sources. Finally, the asymmetric causality test results reveal that only positive shock in income inequality tends to cause energy demand. From policy stand point, it can be recommended that government policies should be designed and implemented towards improvements in human capital to achieve sustainable economic growth in India since human capital found to be a significant component in energy conservation.
