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

A fossil fuel-dominated country like China is promoting a policy shift toward synergistic governance integrating climate change mitigation and air quality improvement, especially in the on-road transportation sector. However, the efficacy of current emission control policies in mitigating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and air pollution remains poorly quantified through a synergy-focused lens. Here, we develop an integrated analytical framework incorporating a Synergy Index to evaluate policy performance across GHG abatement and air pollution-related health burden reduction. We find that China's on-road environmental policies reduced GHG emissions by 427 Mt CO
