1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Over the past decades, pro-growth policies in China led to rapid economic development but overlooked the provision of health care services. Recently, increasing attention is paid to the emergence of integrated delivery systems (IDS) in China, which is envisioned to consolidate regional health care resources more effectively by facilitating patient referral among hospitals. IDS at an inter-city scale is particularly interesting because it involves both the local governments and the hospitals. Incentives among them will affect the development of an inter-city IDS. This paper thereby builds an economic model to examine both the inter-local government and inter-hospital incentives when participating in an inter-city IDS in China. The findings suggest that while inter-hospital incentives matter, inter-local government incentives should also be considered because the missing incentives at the local government level may oppose the development of inter-city IDSs.
