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

This research introduces a novel driving risk assessment framework for urban tunnel environments, founded upon the physical principles of field theory. The framework conceptualizes three distinct but interacting fields: the kinetic energy field, behavioral field, and potential energy field. The study subsequently elucidates the evolutionary dynamics of the driving risk field, which is precipitated by the presence of neighboring vehicles, individual driving behavior patterns, and alterations in the roadway environment. A comprehensive driving risk field model for urban tunnels was constructed, and the variation patterns of the driving risk field forces acting on vehicles were examined. The results indicate the magnitude of the driving risk field force is inversely proportional to inter-vehicle spacing and the distance to the tunnel sidewall, while directly proportional to the relative speed between vehicles and the longitudinal slope gradient. Under identical conditions, the driving risk field force acting on vehicles at tunnel entrances and exits is greater than inside the tunnel, and the influence of speed on the risk field force exceeds that of distance. The proposed model effectively describes the variation trends of driving risks during vehicle travel in urban tunnels, and the outcomes of this research contribute to laying a theoretical groundwork for optimizing the planning, design, and management protocols of urban tunnels.
