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

Taking willingness to pay as primitive, this paper establishes an analytical framework for demand estimation, where the estimator is robust to endogeneity of price. Applying the framework, this paper then estimates demand functions for a COVID-19 vaccine and compute the consumer surplus in both China and the UAE. We find that the price elasticities of demand are mostly greater than one in both countries. An elastic demand suggests subsidy is likely to be successful in promoting vaccination. The consumer surplus is sizeable, around 58 billion US$ in China and 646 million US$ in the UAE. The figures can inform policymakers in assessing their vaccine programs.
