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
Pig farming has been a crucial contribution to China's food security although intestinal fermentation and its excrement during pig breeding are major sources of greenhouse gas emissions. In this paper, we measured the carbon emission efficiency of pig farming in 30 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) from 2010 to 2020 by using the non-expected output Slack-Based Measure (SBM) model and analyzed the spatial characteristics of the carbon emission efficiency of pig farming in China. We also examined and analyzed the factors influencing the carbon emission efficiency of pig farming by using the limited dependent variable model (Tobit). The results show that: the carbon emission efficiency of pig farming in China shows an M-shaped upward trend over time by comparing the carbon emission efficiency longitudinally during the study period and the carbon emission efficiency of pig farming shows a decreasing trend in the east, central and west regions of China by comparing the carbon emission efficiency of different regions horizontally. It's also shown that regions with low- and extremely-low-efficiency transfer from the east to the central and west regions and the central and regions with high-efficiency transfer to the east. The regression analysis of the factors influencing the carbon emission efficiency of pig breeding shows that the comparative advantage of the pig industry and transportation accessibility is positively correlated with the carbon emission efficiency of pig breeding, whereas the proportion of food resources and market scale is negatively correlated with the carbon emission efficiency of pig breeding. At the same time, the production layout index has no significant influence on the carbon emission efficiency of pig breeding. The research results provide a theoretical basis for regional differentiation of carbon emission management from pig farming, optimizing the layout of the pig industry and reducing environmental pollution.
