Data-driven assessment of Apulian road network resilience: Bridge unavailability and inner municipality isolation impact.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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 networks are crucial for the movement of resources, passenger transportation, and supply chains. In seismically active areas like Italy, earthquakes can compromise road infrastructure, leading to structural failures and connectivity disruptions. Bridges, vital for travel and emergency response, are especially vulnerable to these extreme events, making their maintenance and recovery crucial for preserving transport efficiency. This study examines the resilience of the Apulian road network against bridge failures by assessing seismic hazards, the structural vulnerability of each bridge to seismic actions, and the systemic consequences of its disruption. A bridge criticality score is defined to support data-driven decision-making for bridge maintenance and recovery. This novel quantitative metric integrates seismic hazard data at each bridge site, fragility curves, and topological complex network analysis to provide a comprehensive evaluation of bridge criticality. Additionally, the risk of isolation for inner municipalities due to bridge disruptions is assessed using centrality metrics. By combining the bridge criticality score with an emphasis on inner municipalities, this approach offers valuable insights to improve road network resilience, mitigate isolation risks, and promote territorial sustainability in earthquake-prone zones.
