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

Sustainable concrete is gaining in popularity as a result of research into waste materials, such as recycled aggregate (RA). This strategy not only protects the environment, but also meets the demand for concrete materials. Using advanced artificial intelligence (AI) approaches, this study anticipates the split tensile strength (STS) of concrete samples incorporating RA. Three machine-learning techniques, artificial neural network (ANN), decision tree (DT), and random forest (RF), were examined for the specified database. The results suggest that the RF model shows high precision compared with the DT and ANN models at predicting the STS of RA-based concrete. The high value of the coefficient of determination and the low error values of the mean absolute error (MAE), mean square error (MSE), and root mean square error (RMSE) provided significant evidence for the accuracy and precision of the RF model. Furthermore, statistical tests and the k-fold cross-validation technique were used to validate the models. The importance of the input parameters and their contribution levels was also investigated using sensitivity analysis and SHAP analysis.
