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
Employees' green behavior directly contributes to corporate environmental sustainability and generates positive spillover effects on society that support broader green transformation. As a leadership style that encourages employees' pro-environmental actions, green transformational leadership has attracted growing scholarly attention. However, the mechanisms through which green transformational leadership shapes employees' green behavior remain underexplored. Drawing on social learning theory and affective events theory, this study developed a cross-level theoretical model linking green transformational leadership and employees' green behavior. Using Mplus, multilevel analyzes on matched data from 325 employees nested within 53 teams were conducted. The results indicated that (1) green transformational leadership was positively related to employees' green behavior; (2) employees' environmental passion mediated the relationship between green transformational leadership and employees' green behavior; (3) pro-environmental organizational climate negatively moderated the mediating effect of employees' environmental passion on the relationship between green transformational leadership and employees' green behavior, such that the indirect effect is weaker when the organizational climate is more strongly pro-environmental. These findings enhance understanding of the mechanisms through which green transformational leadership shapes employees' green behavior and offer practical implications for leveraging leadership to promote pro-environmental actions in organizations.
