Urban Sustainability Transitions in the Global South: a Case Study of Curitiba and Accra.
Article in Urban forum (Johannesburg, South Africa), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 existing literature is replete with examples of how sustainable urbanism unfolds in cities in the developed world. However, there is limited insight into how this concept is exemplified in the developing world. This paper poses the question, what strategies are appropriate for transitioning developing world cities towards greater sustainability. Drawing on insights from Curitiba and Accra, we argue that cities should not simply reproduce technical sustainability solutions successfully introduced elsewhere, but they should leverage indigenous potential to chart a sustainability path that is sensitive to conditions in the local context.
