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
The current study attempts to examine the moderating effect of liquidity on the relationship between firms' specific and sustainability expenses. The study is based on secondary data over a period from 2015 to 2021. The results are estimated using panel data with fixed-effect models. The results indicate that liquidity enhances and strengthens the ability of a company to spend more on environmental, social, and employee compensation sustainability expenses. In the same context, the results reveal that there is an insignificant moderation effect of liquidity with the financial performance of a company, indicating that the liquidity of companies with higher financial performance does not enhance and strength their ability to spend more on sustainability expenses. Further, the extent of liquidity in larger companies affects positively and significantly the level of employee compensation but not environmental and social spending. Finally, the findings show that greater leverage with less liquidity negatively affects the levels of sustainability spending. This study provides a unique contribution to the existing literature by introducing the moderating effect of liquidity on the relationship between firms' specific and sustainability expenditures. It highlights the direct effect of firms' specific determinants and the moderating effect of liquidity on three categories of sustainability expenses which are environmental expenses, social expenses, and employee compensations. Therefore, this research has valuable implications for company managers, financial analysts, policymakers, and other stakeholders.
