Article in Environment, development and sustainability, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Sustainable development is not just possible with regard to the environmental and economic dimensions, and social issues are also important in achieving sustainable development. Social sustainability, as one of the dimensions of sustainable development, has been considered by policy makers and managers. Social sustainability and business ethics in the organization are affected by social and behavioral interactions of individuals. Blockchain technology, as a disruptive technology, leads to a peer-to-peer and decentralized network management using distributed architecture. Blockchain technology can affect the way information is exchanged and creates transparency in the organization. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of blockchain technology on business ethics and social sustainability in the organization. In the first part of the research, a conceptual model is extracted using previous studies. In the second part, the relationship between model variables among 411 managers of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) active in the Middle East region is evaluated according to the importance of sustainability in this region. Structural equation model and SmartPLS software have been used for data analysis. The research findings show that the use of blockchain technology has a direct impact on business ethics, corporate governance and social sustainability due to the creation of a decentralized system, information transparency and traceability. Also, business ethics and corporate governance have an impact on achieving social sustainability.
