Assessing sustainable development and environmental pollution dynamics in Somalia.
Article in Scientific reports, 2026. 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
Environmental pollution is a major global challenge that significantly contributes to climate change and damages ecosystems. Growing pollution levels, fueled by economic growth, urbanization, and unsustainable consumption, have extensive effects on both the environment and society. This study examines how urbanization, globalization, renewable energy use, and economic growth influence environmental pollution in Somalia, using data from 1990 to 2020. It employs ARDL bounds testing along with FMOLS, DOLS, and CCR estimation methods. The results show that urbanization significantly increases pollution in the long term, though it decreases pollution in the short term in Somalia. Conversely, renewable energy consistently reduces pollution both in the short and long run. Globalization and economic growth have a negative but statistically insignificant effect in the long run; however, they exert a positive effect in the short run, with economic growth’s impact being statistically significant and negative. Overall, urbanization appears to worsen environmental pollution, while renewable energy enhances environmental quality in Somalia. These findings underscore the importance of promoting renewable energy and adopting urban planning policies for sustainable development in Somalia.
