Access to Essential Services: A Critical Factor for Predicting Recovery and Quantifying Resilience.
Article in Risk analysis : an official publication of the Society for Risk Analysis, 2026. 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
Essential services are necessary for individuals to recover from and adapt to disruptive events, yet the relationship between access to such services and recovery trajectory is poorly understood. Data on household recovery times are typically only available through surveys, which are limited in scale and scope. Further, the availability of all open and accessible essential services facilities in a region may not be recorded anywhere. Location-based services (LBS) data from cell phones offers new opportunities for estimating this relationship. Using LBS data, we approximate facility availability and household recovery times following Hurricane Irma in Southwest Florida in 2017 and then statistically model the importance of access for recovery incorporating social vulnerability, local storm parameters, and infrastructure outage variables. We show that power, cell service, and school outages rank highest in importance, followed by measures of access to essential services. These results underscore the importance of including access metrics for predicting community recovery and evaluating resilience as well as the need for planning and policies that improve access to essential services both in times of stability and disruption.
