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

Digital green innovation (DGI) is crucial for high-pollution enterprises to improve green performance. However, there is a paradox regarding the impact of environmental regulations on DGI, primarily due to the varied effects of diverse regulatory tools. To resolve this paradox, based on Neoclassical Economics and the Porter Hypothesis, we empirically examine the influence of heterogeneous environmental regulations on DGI using a sample of high-pollution enterprises in China. The conclusions indicate that environmental protection tax has a pushing-forward effect on DGI, while environmental protection subsidy has a crowding-out effect. Moreover, enterprises' resource base and technological innovation capability positively moderate the impact of environmental protection tax. External pressure, internal incentives, pandering to governments, and managerial opportunism have mediating effects. Our research offers a new perspective to resolve the paradox of the effect of environmental regulations on DGI, explores potential mechanism as well as boundary condition, and proposes a new way of measuring DGI of enterprises with patents. Accordingly, we offer valuable policy recommendations about the formulation of environmental regulations, the facilitation of DGI, and the advancement of China's ecological civilization.
