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

Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from global oil sector is essential for meeting the 1.5°C goal. Existing studies largely adopt top-down approaches, overlooking heterogeneity in oilfield carbon intensity and economic feasibility. We integrate an economic production and life cycle emission model of 4,382 oilfields to assess how future oil prices affect alignment with the climate goals. The results show that the average break-even price was 22.9 $/bbl in 2019, well below the projected future oil prices, indicating substantial profitability. The oil sector is expected to emit 386.7 Gt CO
