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

Bike-sharing systems have gained considerable traction as a solution to many urban transport challenges. (Note that, in this paper, "bike" means "bicycle," not "motorbike".) Limited research has explored the market dynamics driving bike-sharing usage among different population segments. This study is the first to apply a market-segmenting approach to analyze factors influencing both existing and potential users' adoption of a bike-sharing system in Montréal, Canada. Utilizing a bilingual online survey conducted in spring, 2024, this research investigates the factors that limit or prevent the use of a large-scale bicycle-sharing system-Bixi-among different population groups. This work applies factor and k-means cluster analyses to identify distinct profiles within existing users (
