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

objectivesAggressive driving behavior is a significant predictor of traffic accidents. In particular, the driving behavior of taxi drivers is a critical issue that can impact the safety of both drivers and passengers. This study explored the sleep, cognitive, and psychological factors associated with taxi drivers' aggressive driving behavior.

methodsIn this descriptive study, a self-report questionnaire was distributed to taxi drivers in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province from August 22, 2022 to December 30, 2022. In all, 992 respondents were analyzed using negative binomial regression.

resultsThe mean score for aggressive driving behavior among taxi drivers was 13.76±11.47, with sub-scores of 3.46±3.48 for lapse, 3.31±3.16 for error, and 6.99±5.76 for violation. Contributing factors included sleep disorders, cognitive decline, and psychological factors. A higher score for aggressive driving behavior was associated with an increased severity of insomnia and daytime sleepiness, higher rates of cognitive failure, and elevated levels of depression and stress.

conclusionsOur findings highlight the importance of addressing the sleep, cognitive, and psychological factors associated with aggressive driving behaviors among taxi drivers. Further study is needed to evaluate the causal relationship. In addition, it is imperative to develop educational programs and interventions to manage these issues effectively.
