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

Urban growth and rising vehicle usage have intensified congestion, accidents, and environmental impact, exposing the limitations of traditional traffic management systems. This study introduces a dual-incident simulation framework to investigate the potential of Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) technologies in enhancing urban mobility. Using the Eclipse MOSAIC platform integrated with SUMO, a realistic network in Iași, Romania, was modeled under single- and dual-incident scenarios with three V2X penetration levels: 0%, 50%, and 100%. Unlike prior works that focus on single-incident cases or assume full penetration, our approach evaluates cascading disruptions under partial adoption, providing a more realistic transition path for mid-sized European cities. Key performance indicators, i.e., average speed, vehicle density, time loss, and waiting time, were calculated using mathematically defined formulas and validated across multiple simulation runs. Results demonstrate that full V2X deployment reduces average time loss by 18% and peak density by more than 70% compared to baseline conditions, while partial adoption delivers measurable yet limited benefits. The dual-incident scenario shows that V2X-enabled rerouting significantly mitigates cascading congestion effects. These contributions advance the state of the art by bridging microscopic vehicle dynamics with network-level communication modeling, offering quantitative insights for phased V2X implementation and the design of resilient, sustainable intelligent transportation systems.
