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

The ecological efficiency (eco-efficiency) of a regional logistics industry (RLI) is widely regarded as a key factor affecting sustainability of economic development, environmental protection, and resources utilization. This study applied a data-driven method to evaluate and increase the eco-efficiency of an RLI. Based on RLI-related data, which were converted into proper dimensionless indices, data envelopment analysis (DEA), which assumes that the decision-making units (DMUs) are in the situation of variable returns to scale, the Banker, Charnes, and Cooper (BCC) model, and Malmquist index model were used to assess the eco-efficiency of the RLI from both static and dynamic viewpoints. Then, a Tobit regression model was built to explore the factors that influence eco-efficiency. The effectiveness of this approach was verified by its application to an example from Anhui Province. This study has theoretical and practical value for the assessment and promotion of the ecological eco-efficiency of the RLI. We believe that our approach offers a powerful tool to assist logistics enterprises and local governments in coordinating the relationship between the RLI economy and the ecological environment, facilitating the drive to carbon neutrality.
