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

Over time, international decision-making bodies have paid a special attention to the adoption of test driving cycles in the laboratory that reflect standard traffic conditions and regulations regarding the maximum limit of pollutant emissions from road vehicles to be homologated for their admittance to traffic. The proposed study examines the impact of road and traffic characteristics on pollutant emissions and fuel consumption of light vehicles in a real urban traffic cycle. The research was carried out following two scenarios, in two phases, each of them focusing on the analysis of greenhouse gas emissions mainly (CO
