Assessing the impact of armed conflict on the progress of achieving 17 sustainable development goals.
Article in iScience, 2024. 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
With global armed conflicts reaching a 30-year high in 2023, understanding their impact on the progress of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is crucial. Here, we used the propensity score matching method to assess the specific impacts of armed conflict on achieving the 17 SDGs in affected countries from 2000 to 2021. The results indicate that, compared to the hypothetical scenarios without conflict, progress on more than half of the SDGs has slowed by over 5% in countries experiencing armed conflict. This slowdown is most acute in SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure) and SDG 4 (Quality Education), where impediments exceed 10%. Without such conflicts, these countries could have seen advancements in over one-third of the SDGs, moving from low to moderate levels, or from moderate to high levels of achievement. This information provides insights for conflict-affected countries to identify key SDGs and navigate out of developmental challenges.
