Evaluation of TPGU using entropy - improved TOPSIS - GRA method in China.
Article in PloS one. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
China is still one of the countries dominated by thermal power generation. In order to generate more efficient, stable and clean power, it is necessary to evaluate thermal power generation units (TPGU). Firstly, a comprehensive evaluation index system for TPGU with 20 secondary indicators was established from four aspects: reliability indicators, economic indicators, technical supervision indicators, and major operating indicators. Secondly, the entropy weight method can be used to calculate the weight of each second-level index. Mahalanobis Distance improved Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method is coupled with the Grey Relational Analysis (GRA), and the comprehensive evaluation values of 5 units (600MW) are respectively 0.4516, 0.5247, 0.3551, 0.5589 and 0.6168 from both vertical and horizontal dimensions. Finally, by comparing and analyzing this method with the above research methods, it is found that the results obtained by this method which re-establishes the coordinate system based on the data set are more accurate. In addition, this method can effectively evaluate the operation of TPGU, which is of great significance for cleaner production while generating electricity. In conclusion, some suggestions on clean production of TPGU are put forward, and the innovation points and limitations of this paper are pointed out.
