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
Zinc tailing waste is a type of mine waste generated during the extraction of zinc metal. Disposal of a huge amount of mine tailing waste is an open area and tailing dam causing a negative impact on the natural ecosystem and human health. In this research study, the mechanical properties and durability performance of concrete containing zinc mine tailing waste was investigated through an experimental and statistical analysis. The mechanically treated and untreated zinc tailing waste was used as a cement substitute in concrete production. Concrete specimens were fabricated by replacing cement (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%) with the mechanically treated and untreated zinc mine tailing waste. The effect of the zinc mine tailing waste was investigated by conducting the various mechanical (compressive strength and elastic modulus) tests, durability (ultrasonic pulse velocity, water absorption, chloride penetration, carbonation, sulfate attack) tests. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) on concrete samples were also conducted for microstructure analysis. According to the various tests conducted, all concrete properties showed comparable results at the 5% cement substitution in concrete by mechanically treated zinc tailing waste. However, the zinc tailing waste concrete was shown to be more sulphate resistance than the control concrete. Test findings suggest that it is feasible to use 10% mechanically treated and 5% untreated zinc tailing waste as a substitute for cement in concrete to reduce the adverse effect on the environment.
