Development of a justification process for selecting alternative risk reduction measures.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 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
Introduction: The aim of this study is to develop a process for determining a set of alternative preventive measures to reduce risk levels, using the example of reducing the incidence of occupational pneumoconiosis in miners under conditions of financial cost minimization. Methods: This study was conducted using a system analysis to identify priority directions for risk reduction under limited financial resources based on the relationship between the measures and their risk reduction efficiency. A methodology was developed to justify the selection of risk reduction measures from a set of alternatives based on the calculation of an efficiency factor grounded in financial losses. An eleven-step risk management process was designed to determine alternative preventive measures, characterized by feedback loops that enable the selection of optimal risk reduction strategies. Results: This study presents algorithms for solving three types of decision-making problems regarding the selection of combinations of preventive measures from a defined set of alternatives. These algorithms consider the priority of the measures and allow for a comparison between the effectiveness of several measures and a single measure that can also reduce the risk to an acceptable level. Discussion: An example of calculating the efficiency of preventive measures to reduce the risk of pneumoconiosis among miners is also provided. A key feature of this study is the improvement in the risk management process by integrating the efficiency factor of risk reduction under financial constraints.
