Transportation and Access to Healthcare in Morocco: An Exploratory Study of Guelmim-Oued Noun Region.
Article in Annals of global health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the correlation between accessibility to healthcare facilities and transportation in the Guelmim Oued Noun region of Morocco, where transportation barriers continue to pose a major challenge to accessing healthcare, despite efforts aimed at reducing access barriers. Methods: Data collection for this study involved the administration of a survey among 328 outpatients residing in the Guelmim Oued Noun region, Morocco. The utilization of canonical correlation served as the analytical method, employed to quantify and assess the relationship between transportation related barriers and the access of healthcare services in the specified region. Results: Our research reveals that transportation factors account for approximately 25% of the variation in access to healthcare services. The number of transportation modes utilized by outpatients and the affordability of transportation were found to be significant contributors to the transportation dimension. These findings confirm the significant relationship between transportation and access to healthcare facilities in the region under investigation. Conclusion: Further research is recommended to specifically address transportation barriers to healthcare access services among socially excluded populations, with a focus on promoting mobility inclusivity.
