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
This study explores the relationship between Financial Technology (Fintech) and ecological sustainability, addressing a critical gap in the literature where prior research has primarily focused on the economic and societal impacts of fintech, overlooking its potential environmental benefits. Specifically, the study investigates whether fintech adoption in urban areas contributes to ecological sustainability, offering insights into how fintech can be leveraged to promote sustainable urban development and support global environmental goals. Utilizing a comprehensive panel dataset covering all BRICS nations from 2000 to 2022, the study employs advanced econometric techniques, including second-generation unit root tests, the Westerlund cointegration approach, and the Method of Moments Quantile Regression (MMQR). Additionally, the Augmented Mean Group (AMG) method is used to assess the robustness and stability of the findings. The results suggest that a 10% increase in fintech adoption in urban areas can reduce pollution by 2.3% in the first quantile, highlighting fintech's potential to improve environmental quality in BRICS countries. However, urbanization has a detrimental impact on environmental conservation, with a 10% rise in urban population leading to a 5.5% increase in pollution in the first quantile. Encouragingly, a 10% increase in the interaction between fintech and urbanization can boost CO
