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

Slag-based cementitious material was synthesized from blast furnace slag, clinker, gypsum, and activator to replace cement in cemented paste backfill (CPB). We researched the influence of slag-based cementitious material dosages and curing times on the properties of CPB, including unconfined compressive strength tests, leachate toxicity and chemical speciation of heavy metal as well as microstructural tests and analyses. The results indicated that the addition of slag-based cementitious material improved the compressive strength of the CPB, which attained the compressive strength requirements (≥1.0 MPa) at 28 days. The leachate concentrations of Pb, Cr, Cu, and Cd in CPB decreased as the slag-based cementitious material dosage and curing period increased, which met the standard (GB 5085.3-2007). The dosage of 10% slag-based cementitious material could effectively immobilize the heavy metals in the tailings, and the immobilization performance was similar to that of 20% cement, which indicated the amount of slag-based cementitious material was only half the quantity of cement in CPB. Microstructural analysis showed the hydration products included calcium silicate hydrate, ettringite, and portlandite, which could enhance the bonding force between the tailing grains.
