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

We employ the pool mean group method of estimation and panel causality to investigate the effect of financial integration and industrial development on pollution in 36 African countries between 1990 and 2019. Result shows a unidirectional causality running from industrial development to financial integration and pollution in Africa. Also, the panel regression shows that financial integration insignificantly abates pollution in the short run, but significantly worsens the long-run pollution in the continent. Again, the result indicates that industrial development insignificantly heightens pollution in both periods, while interplay between financial integration and industrial development exerts a negative impact on both short- and long-run pollution in Africa. The study recommends that African leaders should harness the benefits of financial integration to accelerate African industrial development and ensure the full implementation of environmentally sustainable policies to checkmate pollution emissions.
