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

Transportation impacts population health. Historical trauma, structural inequities, and institutional discrimination have created transportation injustice. Transportation injustice is a product of systemic racism and ableism which perpetuates inequities, discrimination, and exclusion. However, systemic racism and ableism can compound injustice given one's social identities. In aligning with the principles of mobility justice and Crip Mobility Justice, this paper asserts that an intersectional lens is needed to dismantle transportation injustice and create a sustainable transportation system rooted in health equity. Specifically, social identities do not exist independent of each other, creating a complex convergence of oppression in transportation access. To support this viewpoint, we: (1) describe transportation history among two overlapping historically marginalized populations in the United States, Black people and people with disabilities, (2) articulate the impact transportation injustice has had on public health, and (3) advocate for an intersectional lens to dismantle unjust systems, policies, and structures.
