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

Long-distance electricity transmission can achieve environmental benefits through the transfer of air pollutants. However, current electricity transmission investment decisions do not take enough environmental factors into account. This study combines Greenhouse Gas-Air Pollution Interactions and Synergies model with power system planning to reveal how regional differences in environmental and health losses affect the allocation of electricity at the spatial level. Based on the analysis of inter-provincial electricity interconnection in China, we find that the regional differences in environmental and health external costs of power generation are significant. Considering external costs in investment decisions will largely improve the economy of long-distance inter-regional electricity transfer dominated by ultra-high voltage lines, thus replacing a portion of intra-regional electricity transfer dominated by high voltage lines. Meanwhile, the increases in local health losses in major electricity exporting provinces are not significant, which can alleviate the regional equity issues caused by pollutant transfer.
