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

Green development is a strategy for China's sustainable economic growth, and improving green total factor energy efficiency (GTFEE) is the key to achieving the dual goals of energy conservation, emission reduction, and economic development. This paper takes panel data of 267 prefecture-level cities in China from 2004 to 2019 as samples to explore how heterogeneous environmental regulation can have the effects of FDI on GTFEE. The results show that, first, except for environmental regulation and FDI independently affecting GTFEE, there is a synergistic effect between environmental regulation and FDI, and their interaction can also significantly affect GTFEE. Secondly, FDI has no significant impact on GTFEE when environmental regulation is low, but FDI can significantly improve GTFEE when environmental regulation is high. Thirdly, market-based environmental regulations (MER) have a better improvement effect on GTFEE than command-based environmental regulations (CER). Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the benign interaction between FDI and environmental regulation, especially giving full play to the role of market-based environmental regulation and further improving the design of command-based environmental regulation.
