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

This paper aims to map the research landscape in equity and justice in transport and mobility, identifying key publications, authors, institutions, and interdisciplinary connections to inform future research and policy development. A systematic search of scientific articles on equity and justice in transport and mobility was conducted in the Web of Science, resulting in 759 selected articles that were analyzed using bibliometric and network analysis methods. The analysis reveals a growing trend in scientific production since 2013, with the Journal of Transport Geography, Transport Research Part A: Policy and Practice, and the Journal of Transport Policy being the most prominent journals. The most influential authors and institutions are identified, along with the most cited works. Keyword usage trends and thematic analysis show a shift in focus from environmental equity to urban transport, congestion, and accessibility. Cluster analyses highlight focal points and themes, such as accessibility, mobility, social aspects, transport and spatial equity, environmental justice, transport planning, active transport, and methodological evaluations. Co-citation networks reveal three major clusters with differing research focuses: Lukas K. & Martens K.; Litman T. and Currie, G., and Scwanen T. and Cresswell, T. The findings contribute to a better understanding of the existing knowledge in equity and justice in transport and mobility, enabling researchers and policymakers to identify areas requiring further exploration. Additionally, the paper fosters interdisciplinary connections and sets priorities for future research and policy development.
