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

Hazardous materials transportation route optimization problem is a pressing issue, and multi-dimensional evaluation criteria and diversified transportation modes complicate the problem. In response to this, a method for multi-mode transportation network and multi-criterion route optimization is proposed. Initially, A three-objective integer programming model is formulated, and an improved multi-objective genetic algorithm, termed DSNSGA3, is introduced to aid in decision-making. Specifically tailored to the problem's specifics, a chromosome encoding technique grounded in priority is devised to eliminate infeasible solutions. Subsequently, leveraging non-dominated sorting and crowding distance algorithms to assess the merit of multi-objective solutions, a local search strategy is introduced. This strategy serves dual purposes: it accelerates the algorithm's convergence rate and effectively minimizes the number of transshipments. Ultimately, an automatic weight-assigning decision-making method based on maximizing deviations is designed, culminating in a definitive decision-making plan. Numerical simulations reveal that the DSNSGA3, as designed in this paper, excels at identifying a diverse and widely distributed Pareto front. Compared to the traditional NSGA3, it demonstrates average improvements of 1.93% in solution accuracy, 1.32% in robustness, and a convergence advancement of 11.33 generations. The proposed decision-making method, based on Pareto solutions, adeptly balances various evaluation criteria, obtains a definitive solution, and provides a basis for multi-criteria intelligent decision-making in complex environments.
