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

Road safety is a critical concern worldwide, impacting individuals, communities, and societies. As mobility increases, so does the risk of accidents and injuries on roads, emphasizing the need for preventive measures. Road safety volunteers contribute significantly to promoting and maintaining road safety, making it important to understand their motivations and resilience sources. This study aimed to uncover what drives their commitment and the factors influencing their experiences as volunteers, informing them about strategies to support and enhance their efforts. Interviews with 28 road safety volunteers revealed three key themes: the driving forces behind their engagement, including intrinsic motivation, a sense of purpose, and social connection; challenges and coping strategies, such as the need for training, resilience, and peer support; and multifaceted benefits, including positive community impact and enhanced social connectivity. These findings highlight the potential benefits of promoting education on safe driving practices and encouraging citizen involvement in reducing traffic violations and road accidents.
