Promoting Chinese medical equipment enterprises' environmentally friendly production through digital transformation and net zero strategic consensus.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
The rapid growth of China's medical industry has raised concerns about environmental sustainability, particularly regarding waste pollution from medical product production. This has led to calls for environmentally friendly production (EFP) practices in the sector. Drawing on the Resource-Based View (RBV) and Dynamic Managerial Capabilities (DMC) perspectives, this study explores the effects of digital transformation (DT) on EFP, with survey data from 316 medical equipment manufacturing companies in China. The findings depict a positive relationship between DT and EFP, mediated by net-zero strategic consensus (NZSC). Furthermore, sustainability orientation (SO) positively moderates the linkage between DT and NZSC. This study developed and validated a series of novel measurement indicators for NZSC and SO. Specifically, we measure NZSC from three dimensions: long term consensus, short term consensus, and strategic optimality; Measuring SO through knowledge, practice, and commitment to sustainability. Therefore, this study contributes to the existing literature, expanding the theoretical application of DT and RBV in the net-zero production field, and providing managerial implications for policymakers promoting EFP practices.
