Research on equity and utilization efficiency of health resource allocation in Anhui Province.
Article in BMC health services research, 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
objectiveTo analyze the equity and utilization efficiency of health resource allocation in Anhui Province, providing methods for rational resource layout.
methodsThe entropy-weighted TOPSIS method and rank-sum ratio (RSR) method were adopted to conduct comprehensive evaluation and grading analysis of health resource allocation in Southern, Central, and Northern Anhui from 2019 to 2023.
resultsThe entropy-weighted TOPSIS analysis indicated that since 2021, the comprehensive evaluation index (C-value) of Central Anhui surpassed that of Southern Anhui, reaching 0.745 in 2023, while Northern Anhui consistently exhibited low C-values. RSR grading results classified Southern Anhui as "excellent," Central Anhui as "moderate," and Northern Anhui as "poor."
conclusionSignificant disparities exist in health resource allocation across Anhui Province. Southern Anhui boasts abundant resources but faces weaker grassroots service capacity; Central Anhui shows rapid growth yet poor alignment between resources and population density; Northern Anhui suffers from inadequate infrastructure and high equipment idle rates. Recommendations include:strengthening mobile medical services and resource allocation to grassroots in Southern Anhui; implementing hierarchical diagnosis and treatment coupled with medical consortium collaboration in Central Anhui; enhancing grassroots talent and equipment management in Northern Anhui through targeted training programs and incentive policies.
