Evaluating regulatory influences on coal mine accidents in China using a fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making approach.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Amidst the global surge in industrialization, frequent coal mine safety incidents pose significant risks to miners' lives and environmental stability. This study employs Fuzzy Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (FMCDM) to quantitatively analyze regulatory factors affecting coal mine safety in China from 2012 to 2022, identifying key elements that influence accident risks and regional policy disparities. By integrating Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), Fuzzy Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (FDEMATEL), and Gaussian Fuzzy Monte Carlo Analytic Network Process (GFMANP), a comprehensive risk assessment model is developed. This multifaceted approach addresses the limitations of traditional assessment methods, not only identifying the key regulatory factors impacting coal mine safety but also quantifying their influence and interrelationships. The findings reveal a strong correlation between design schemes and management systems (correlation coefficient 0.4931), emphasizing their interdependence and the importance of an integrated approach to safety management. In addition, the results show that technical documents and Southwest factors have the highest risk values (0.1506 and 0.2050, respectively), which provide a detailed risk assessment for different regions of China and are crucial for developing security strategies for different regions. Based on these findings, the recommendations include optimizing the synergy between design schemes and management systems, enhancing technical document management, and developing region-specific safety strategies to reduce the risks of coal mine accidents and improve safety management standards.
