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

As the necessity of transitioning to food systems that are healthy and environmentally sustainable grows increasingly urgent, food systems seem to be locked into delivering negative outcomes. One driver of this lock-in is that some of the changes from transitioning food systems would result in asset stranding for firms and financial institutions. In this Perspective we provide examples of where asset stranding can occur in food systems and offer solutions for navigating the political economy of these stranded assets. By proactively attending to the stranded assets problem, it may be possible to break out of financial lock-in in food systems.
