Urbanization and carbon emissions: a panel threshold analysis.
Article in Environmental science and pollution research international, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
This study analyzes whether an optimal level of urbanization (UB) exists at which the newly industrialized countries (NIC) can reduce carbon dioxide emissions (CE). The results suggest that UB has a positive effect when it is lower than the threshold value. Whereas UB has a negative effect on CE when it is above the threshold value, identify an optimal level in the NIC countries for CE. Moreover, industrialization, economic growth, and energy consumption have a positive significant impact on CE while renewable energy has a negative effect. The study is useful for policymakers to realize optimal UB level to reduce CE. Moreover, the balanced developmental approach for the rural-urban areas and encouragement of internal migration to small cities will minimize the flow of migration to metropolitan cities. Sustainable economic development required continuous energy supply; thus, the event of low carbon energy is extremely vital. The development of low carbon energy is very important and policymakers should improve the structure of energy consumption.
