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

The reinforced concrete (RC) member's shear strength estimation has been experimentally studied in most cases due to its nonlinear behavior. Many empirical equations have been derived from the experimental data; however, even those adopted in the construction codes do not thoroughly and accurately describe their shear behavior. Theoretically explained equations, on the other hand, are aligned with the experiment; however, they are complicated to use in practice. As shear behavior research is data-driven, the machine learning technique is applicable. Herein, an artificial neural network (ANN) algorithm is trained with 776 experiment results collected from available publications. The raw data is preprocessed by principal component analysis (PCA) before the application of the ANN technique. The predictions of the trained algorithm using ANN with PCA are compared to those of formulae adopted in a few existing building codes. Finally, a parametric study is conducted, and the significance of each variable to the strength of RC members is analyzed.
