Assess the efficacy of China's Inter-provincial Government Services policy: A quantitative evaluation based on PMC-Index model.
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 3 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
To face with the challenges of governance in the digital age, such as insufficient coordination between regional governments and low quality and efficiency of government services, China has proposed the Inter-provincial Government Services Policy. The policy is capable of realizing the government's ability to handle service matters for the public in different regions, thus facilitating the regional government's coordination and upgrading the level of government services. This paper collects and organizes the texts of 28 Inter-provincial Government Services policies, and uses ROSTCM6 text mining software to screen and identify the policy text content. Then a quantitative evaluation method based on the PMC model is proposed to examine the consistency and efficacy of the policy in this paper. The results show that: (a) The policy design is generally considered to be rational, with the majority of policies rated as excellent and a few rated as acceptable. There are no policies considered bad or perfect. From a certain point of view, these policies show obvious advantages in terms of policy nature, policy content and policy function. (b) The equilibrium of various policy indicators implies a high level of policy consistency. It indicates the overall coherence and coordination of the policies, contributing to enhanced predictability, credibility, and operationalization of policies, thereby establishing the foundation for their effective implementation. (c) There are still several weak points with the current policies, including the narrow scope of areas, the lack of medium- and long-term planning, and the insufficiently scientific nature of the instruments, evaluations and citations. This paper presents optimization recommendations aimed at addressing the aforementioned issues, which include expanding the scope of the policy, bolstering the long-term impact of the policy, and enhancing the quality of decision-making.
