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

purposeStakeholder pressure is widely recognized as a key driver of green innovation. However, existing research often overlooks how this relationship may differ across various industry settings and national contexts. Understanding these contextual differences is essential for businesses aiming to implement effective and responsive environmental strategies.

methodsThis study synthesizes findings from 23 independent investigations conducted across multiple industries and countries. The analysis aims to uncover patterns in how stakeholder pressure influences green innovation, with a particular focus on variations between sectors and regional settings.

findingsThe influence of stakeholder pressure on green innovation is generally positive but varies significantly by context. In manufacturing industries, the relationship is weaker, likely due to technical, operational, or financial constraints that hinder firms from fully meeting stakeholder expectations. The effect is also less pronounced in China, potentially due to country-specific stakeholder norms, regulatory frameworks, or socio-economic factors that shape corporate environmental responses.

conclusionsBoth industry characteristics and national contexts significantly shape the effectiveness of stakeholder-driven green innovation. Firms need to consider these contextual nuances when developing environmental strategies. Tailoring approaches to fit specific industrial and regional conditions can improve alignment with stakeholder expectations and enhance the success of green initiatives.
