Occupational carbon footprints and exposure to climate transition risks.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. 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
Workers, especially those involved in occupations with high carbon footprints, are more susceptible to the growing risks associated with the climate transition as a result of the urgent need to transition to a low-carbon economy. Here we trace the occupational carbon footprints along global value chains and estimate the associated exposure to climate transition risks. The volume of occupational carbon footprints is trending upward globally, with the expansion of primary labour inputs as the main driving factor. There is a considerable deal of territorial and occupational variance in carbon footprints from the perspectives of both volume and per worker. The most vulnerable to climate transition risks are drivers, craft workers and machine operators, particularly those operating in emerging countries. The current study's findings may help the understanding of the role that workers play in climate change and the formulation of more targeted policies to protect vulnerable workers.
