Laboratory Tests and Analyses of the Level of Vibration Suppression of Prototype under Ballast Mats (UBM) in the Ballasted Track Systems.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
The present paper is aimed at the analysis of under ballast mats (UBM) which are used in ballasted track structures as vibration isolators and to protect the ballast layer against fast degradation. The mats were tested in the laboratory and afterwards a novel 4-DoF mechanical model of the track structure with UBM was developed. The novelty of this study consists in the comparison of two testing procedures: a procedure based on the popular German standard DIN 45673-5 and a new European standard EN 17282, released in October 2020. Major discrepancies were demonstrated in the determined values of the static and dynamic characteristics using both approaches-especially in reference to the mats with higher stiffness.
