The Effect of Ecological Management on Regional Health Inequality.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Ecological management has been implemented to improve individual well-being. However, it remains unclear whether this management has improved health inequality over time. Aiming to examine whether health inequality is caused by ecological management in China, we harnessed a macro-level dataset from 2001 to 2019 across 31 Chinese provinces-combined with gene and dietary culture data-and utilized a bilateral approach to pair provincial data. Empirical results of system Generalized Method of Moments (sys-GMM) estimations in benchmark and extensive models which suggest a negative and statistically significant causal effect of ecological management on health inequality. Specifically, ecological management contributes to decreasing the inequality in the population death rate, the death rate among pregnant women, the underweight newborn rate, the child malnutrition rate, and the infectious disease mortality. The results are robust to weak instruments in the sys-GMM setting and a delayed effect of ecological management. Additionally, the heterogeneity analysis shows that the causal effect of ecological management on decreasing regional health inequality is more significant and higher for subsamples in identical regions than in different regions.
