Impact of the health insurance deregulation policy for cross-regional healthcare on hospitalization visits and expenses of patients with ischemic heart disease: an interrupted time series analysis.

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
Background: The health insurance deregulation policy aimed to enhance healthcare accessibility by eliminating intra-provincial administrative hurdles. However, its impact on hospitalization patterns of high-burden chronic conditions like ischemic heart disease (IHD) remains unexamined. Methods: Interrupted time-series analysis (ITSA) was employed to evaluate weekly hospitalization visits and expenses for 8,522 IHD inpatients across three Hebei counties (January 2021-July 2023). Models assessed immediate and longitudinal changes post-policy, adjusting for autocorrelation and seasonal trends. Results: Policy implementation triggered an immediate 20.27 surge in weekly hospitalizations ( Conclusion: The health insurance deregulation policy successfully expanded IHD care access without exacerbating financial burdens, demonstrating that administrative simplification can coexist with cost containment under concurrent payment reforms.
