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

This study investigated the effects of nano-silica (NS) and silica fume (SF) on the hydration reaction of high-volume fly ash cement (HVFC) composites. In order to solve the dispersibility problem caused by the agglomeration of NS powder, NS and NSF solutions were prepared. NS content and SF content were used as main variables, and an HVFC paste was prepared in which 50% of the cement volume was replaced by fly ash (FA). The initial heat of hydration was measured using isothermal calorimetry to analyze the effects of NS and SF on the initial hydration properties of the HVFC. In addition, the compressive strength was analyzed by age. The refinement of the pore structure by the nanomaterial was analyzed using mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP). The results show that the addition of NS and SF shortened the setting time and induction period by accelerating the initial hydration reaction of HVFC composites and improved the compressive strength during the initial stage of hydration. In addition, the micropore structure was improved by the pozzolanic reaction of NS and SF, thereby increasing the compressive strength during the middle stage of hydration.
