The average environmental efficiency technique and its application to Chinese provincial panel data.

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
In this study, we propose average environmental efficiency, a more comprehensive, fair, comparable, and robust environmental efficiency measurement considering all projection directions to the efficient frontier, and then it is used to evaluate the environmental efficiency of Chinese provinces from 2006 to 2017. Furthermore, we investigate the most influential factors of regional environmental efficiency via a feasible generalized least squares regression approach. The empirical results show that only nine Chinese provinces have average environmental efficiency greater than the national average, implying that two-thirds of the provinces still have much room for improvement. Additionally, environmental efficiency disparities exist between provinces and between four larger geographical areas. The east area achieved the best environmental efficiency over the studied period, better than the whole country, followed in order by the west area, central area, and northeast area. Moreover, we find that the energy consumption structure, government intervention, and economic openness significantly and negatively influence regional environmental efficiency. Finally, we provide policy implications in terms of energy consumption structure optimization, government supervision, and foreign investment introduction while considering the local conditions in different provinces.
