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
This study investigates the relationship between wind speed, climatic conditions, and road accidents in Iran, focusing on the type of accidents and collisions. The research aims to identify the causes of accidents and provide insights for prediction and decision-making purposes. The study adopts a developmental research approach, analyzing road accident data and wind speed data. Logistic regression is employed to investigate the correlation between wind speed and the type of accidents and collisions. Data mining techniques, specifically the J48 decision tree algorithm, are used to examine the relationship patterns among wind speed, climatic conditions, collision types, and accident types. Additionally, texts and articles related to atmospheric hazards and road accidents are studied, and interviews are conducted with road accident experts and drivers to extract insights into the causes of road accidents in Iran. The findings indicate that wind speed does not have a direct and significant effect on the type of accidents (fatal or non-fatal), but it does influence the type of collisions in road accidents. The decision tree analysis reveals patterns in the relationships between weather conditions, wind speed, collision types, and accident types, enabling the prediction of collision probabilities in different scenarios. The causes of road accidents in Iran are categorized into human factors, secondary causes, and unique causes. Based on the findings, several recommendations are proposed to enhance road safety and reduce accidents in Iran.
