The role of construction of healthcare consortium on the allocation of human resources for primary care resources and its equity in China: A quantitative study.
Article in PloS one, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesThis study aims to measure the effect of Construction of Healthcare Consortium (CHC) on the allocation and equity of human resources (HR) for primary health care (PHC) in China, at the same time, it provides some data to support the government's policies improvement in the next stage.
methodsChanges in the equity of allocation of HR for PHC by population are demonstrated through a three-stage approach to inequality analysis that includes the Gini coefficient (G), the Theil index (T), the Concentration index (CI) and Concentration curves. Trends in resource allocation from 2021 to 2030 were projected using the GM (1, 1) model.
resultsThe average rate of growth in volume of HR for PHC accelerates following the release of CHC in the 2016. Whilst some regions have seen their G and T rise between 2012 and 2016, their levels of inequality of allocation for resource shave gradually declined in the years following 2016, but there are exceptions, with the regions of northeast and northwest seeing the opposite. Eastern and northern region accounted for a larger contribution to intra-regional inequality. Concentration index and concentration curves indicate HR for PHC is related to economic income levels. GM (1, 1) projects a growing trend in allocation of resources from 2021 to 2030, but different regions differ in the average rate of growth of resources.
conclusionsThe inequality of HR for PHC in China is low, however, the inequality between regions has not been eliminated. We still need to take a long-term view to monitor the impact of CHC on the allocation of HR for PHC and its equity in China.
