Can supervision promote domestic waste sorting? Evidence from China.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 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
Proper waste sorting is a fundamental aspect of constructing an ecologically sustainable civilization and a vital step towards enhancing urban living standards and public health. Using survey data from urban residents in Beijing, this paper empirically examines the impact of waste sorting supervision on residents' domestic waste sorting. The impact is tested through the multiple mediators model to accommodate three potential mediating mechanisms, which are the awareness of waste sorting significance, standards and policies. The results show that despite 82.1% of urban residents showing varying degrees of participation in domestic waste sorting, there is still considerable room for improvement in promoting it. The implementation of waste sorting supervision appears to be an effective strategy to drive urban residents' involvement in domestic waste sorting. However, the effect of such supervision on residents' waste sorting exhibits marked heterogeneity in age and income, with a more pronounced effect among low-income and younger residents relative to their high-income and older counterparts. In terms of the mediating mechanism, waste sorting supervision promotes residents' involvement in domestic waste sorting by improving their awareness of the significance, standards, and policies of domestic waste sorting.
