Empowering chronic disease management with smart healthcare in China: a policy effectiveness evaluation by PMC index model.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2026. 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: Population aging has driven a sustained increase in chronic diseases, creating major challenges for management, while the development of smart healthcare technologies offers new approaches for chronic disease prevention and control. Systematic analysis of existing policies on intelligent chronic disease management remains insufficient in China, necessitating detailed scrutiny of such policies. Methods: This study systematically reviewed China's national-level policies on chronic disease management over the past decade, using the PMC index model and text mining techniques to analyze the policy texts and construct a comprehensive evaluation index system for intelligent chronic disease management. Results: The 18 policies analyzed focus on chronic disease management, data sharing, telemedicine and multi-party collaboration. The average PMC index score of the policies is 7.31 (on a 0-10 scale). Among them, five policies are rated as "excellent" and 13 as "good," reflecting a generally high overall quality, with P14 performing the best. However, the implementation details and regulatory framework of the policies are still vague, and there are large differences in the implementation progress between regions. Conclusion: These existing policies align well with the requirements of contemporary medical development and are conducive to improving the quality of chronic disease management and its effectiveness, but ambiguities and deviations still exist in the policy implementation, requiring more specific classification and guidance. Future work should target these gaps to improve patient care outcomes.
