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

An innovative ultrafast time-resolution method based on a picosecond pulsed laser was employed to investigate the mode-I crack propagation characteristics of fractured rock. Its time resolution is as fast as the degree of 45 picoseconds. Then, a series of three-point compressive loading tests with this method were conducted on tuff semi-circular bend (SCB) specimens. Based on this method, we found that the mode-I fracture process of the tuff specimens were composed of repeated crack initiation, arrest, and re-initiation. In addition, the experimental results showed that the fracture rates of the tuff specimens in the initial 10 μs were 636 m/s, 663.9 m/s, and 578 m/s. In comparison, the fracture rates of the specimens were 11.19 m/s, 19.23 m/s, 26.79 m/s during the whole fracture process. As a typical heterogeneous material with primary defects, rock has different fracture toughness at different locations. Therefore, we proposed a new method for determining rock fracture toughness at multipoint during the crack propagation. This new method emphasizes the effect of fracture toughness on crack propagation, which enables to determine the fracture toughness at multipoint and is closer to the original definition of fracture toughness.
