Research findings

Comparative structure study

The largest recorded reporting jurisdiction, Tianjin, contains 3 records (7.3% of this 41-record cohort). The remaining cohort contains 38 records. The comparison concerns archive composition.

The recorded industry label Biomedicine accounts for 90.2% here (37/41), compared with 8.9% in the parent set (1,721/19,297), an absolute gap of 81.3 percentage points.

18/41 companies link to pages with existing source-supported excerpts (43.9% of the cohort). The other 23 records remain usable for archive composition, but do not support new operating case studies.

2 keyword candidates match only a company name, with no matching term in recorded products or sub-industry fields. Product evidence is needed before treating these as operating businesses in this segment.

Transparent rule reminderRecordsCohort share

A rule hit prioritises review; it does not establish that the entire field is wrong. One record can trigger several rules.

Matched fieldCandidatesCohort share

An ID may match several fields, so counts may exceed the cohort total. Matches establish search relevance only.

Among the translated non-broad query terms, “traditional Chinese medicine” has the most matches: 32/41. Name, product and sub-industry fields match 6, 24 and 6 records respectively; the largest field is product field. Fields can overlap, and a term remains a search link rather than verified business activity.

Selected broad terms and specific segment terms, not the full query. Terms and fields can overlap and must not be summed. Counts show lexical sensitivity; no records are removed without primary evidence.

2 candidates match only a name, or lose all product-field matches after the full company name is removed while sub-industry also has no hit. This transparent string test locates copied company descriptions; it does not establish that a company does not operate the business.

Intersection with 2026 local lists

3 of this cohort’s 41 records link through existing company-ID mappings to 2026 lists from all jurisdictions (7.3%). This intersection measures list linkage, not successful recognition or company growth.

Recorded roles and delivery checks

Drug-production leads need validation and change records

The Chemical drugs and formulations label covers 23 records (56.1% of this cohort). This archive clue raises a verification question about Defined pharmaceutical-production or testing services with quality documents; it does not establish that these companies already deliver it.
