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

The utilization of polymers can strengthen soil, but at a high price. In this study, value coefficients were proposed to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of fiber-reinforced roadbeds, and the effects of embankment-slope-influencing factors on the value coefficients were analyzed by response surface methodology. Ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene fiber (UPEF) was used as the reinforcement material for soil. First, the shear strength parameters of fiber soil with different fiber diameters were obtained from the direct shear tests to set the parameters of the finite element models. Second, three factors, namely filling height, slope angle, and fiber diameter, were selected as input parameters based on the Box-Behnken Design (BBD) experimental design method, and their effects on the value coefficient of the fiber soil embankment slope were investigated. Finally, the design parameters at the maximum value coefficient of the fiber soil embankment slope were determined based on the results of the response surface analysis. The results indicated that the addition of UPEF could effectively improve the cohesion of the soil; the interaction between the filling height and fiber diameter is most obvious. The optimization of design parameters based on the value coefficient of the fiber soil slope is a slope-engineering design method considering comprehensive benefits.
