Digitalization and upstream supply chain source concentration in high-tech industries.
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
Enhancing supply chain resilience and security in high-tech industries is crucial for mitigating risks arising from dependence on critical technologies amid global uncertainties. Using firm- and product-level data from China’s high-tech industries during 2010–2022, this study investigates how industrial digitalization affects upstream supply chain source concentration (USC) at the industry level through a two-way fixed effects model. The results reveal a U-shaped relationship between industrial digitalization and USC, mediated by human capital accumulation and risk-taking capacity. The effect is stronger in labor-intensive and highly concentrated industries, reflecting long-term strategic adjustments rather than short-term fluctuations. The findings call for a balanced digitalization strategy that manages its dual effects, reinforces human capital and risk management capacity, and relies on coherent institutional frameworks to sustain transformation and strengthen supply chain resilience.
