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
Thermal power generation is a sector of critical importance in global energy consumption, yet it also stands as a major source of environmental pollution. Against the backdrop of China’s diminishing resource and environmental carrying capacity and escalating global climate change, this study examines the impact of green bond issuance on the green and low-carbon development of thermal power enterprises, along with its underlying transmission mechanisms. Employing methodologies such as difference-in-differences (DID) and mediation effect analysis, we analyze data from A-share listed thermal power companies in Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges spanning 2007 to 2021. Furthermore, we investigate the heterogeneous effects of green bonds on enterprises of varying scales and across different regions.The results demonstrate that green bond issuance significantly promotes the green and low-carbon development of thermal power enterprises, both directly and indirectly—a finding robust to a series of sensitivity tests. Moreover, the effects vary considerably depending on firm size and geographic location. This study provides valuable insights into the economic implications of green bonds in China and offers policy guidance for the green transformation of the thermal power industry.
