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.

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

In hot and humid climates, asphalt pavements frequently encounter environmental factors such as elevated temperatures and rainfall, leading to rutting deformations and potholes, which can affect pavement performance. The primary objective of this study was to enhance the hydrothermal characteristics of asphalt mixtures through an investigation into the impact of anhydrous calcium sulfate whisker (ACSW) and polyester fiber (PF) on the hydrothermal properties of asphalt mixtures. In this paper, a central composite concatenation design (CCC) was employed to determine the optimal combination of ACSW and PF contents, as well as the asphalt aggregate ratio (AAR). Each influencing factor was assigned three levels for analysis. The evaluation indexes included dynamic stability, retained Marshall stability, and tensile strength ratio. Using the analysis methods of variance and gray correlation degree analysis, the hydrothermal properties of the asphalt mixture were examined in relation to the contents of ACSW, PF, and AAR based on the CCC results. Consequently, the optimal mix design parameters for composite modified asphalt mixture incorporating ACSW and PF were determined. The results indicated that the asphalt mixtures with hydrothermal qualities exhibited optimal performance in terms of 4.1% ARR, 11.84% ACSW, and 0.4% PF. The interaction between AAR and ACSW content had a greater effect on the dynamic stability and tensile strength ratio of the asphalt mixture, whereas the incorporation of ACSW and PF had a greater effect on the retained Marshall stability of the asphalt mixture. Among the three contributing factors, AAR exhibited the strongest relationship with the hydrothermal characteristics of the asphalt mixture, followed by the ACSW content; the correlation of PF content was the lowest. Therefore, to enhance the hydrothermal characteristics of the asphalt mixture, it is important to conduct a full evaluation of the constituents of ACSW and PF, along with the AAR in hot-humid regions.
