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

Since the implementation of China's healthcare reform in 2009, healthcare resource allocation has improved, yet significant regional and urban-rural imbalances persist, exacerbated by the misallocation of medical capital and labor. Such inefficiencies hinder service equalization and the "Healthy China 2030" goals. Utilizing panel data from 30 provinces (2010-2021), this study constructs misallocation indices for healthcare capital and labor and employs fixed-effects and spatial Durbin models to examine the impact of novel productivity on resource allocation and its spatial spillover effects. Results show that novel productivity significantly enhances allocation efficiency and reduces misallocation through increased healthcare wages, improved service efficiency, and digitalization. Regionally, labor misallocation improves most in Central areas, while capital misallocation improves most in Eastern areas. However, spatial spillover effects reveal that neighboring regions' productivity growth may exacerbate local misallocation. This study provides theoretical insights and practical recommendations for enhancing healthcare quality, equitable resource distribution, and achieving "Healthy China 2030."
