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

Background: Rural environmental sanitation governance is of vital importance for improving rural living standards and narrowing urban-rural gaps in China. However, the effectiveness of existing policies remains suboptimal due to structural design flaws, highlighting the need for systematic evaluation to address these issues. Methods: This study integrates the "Policy Modeling Consistency (PMC-Index)" with text-mining technology to quantitatively assess 24 local policies from 7 Chinese cities, with 7 representative samples selected via stratified sampling. The evaluation framework comprises 9 primary variables and 37 subvariables, systematically analyzing the integrity of policy texts through a structured approach. Results: The findings reveal an average PMC index of 6.03 across the policies. Specifically, 1 policy is rated "excellent", 4 "good", and 2 "unsatisfactory". Key deficiencies are identified in X Conclusion: This study conducts a quantitative evaluation of rural environmental sanitation governance policies in 7 Chinese cities. Although the overall content design of these policies is basically reasonable, obvious deficiencies exist. To enhance policy effectiveness, it is necessary to construct a holistic framework integrating dynamic adjustment mechanisms and multi-stakeholder collaboration.
