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
The objective of this study was to characterize the performance of waste engine oil (WEO) and microwave-treated crumb rubber (CR)-modified asphalt (WEO-MCRA) and analyze the modification mechanism. The viscosity and dynamic shear rheological (DSR) tests were carried out to evaluate the viscoelasticity property of WEO-MCRA. The storage stability and fluorescence microscope (FM) tests were used to characterize the compatibility of the components. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and molecular dynamic simulation were introduced to analyze the change of function groups and modification mechanism. The results demonstrated that introducing Wt.20% CR treated with microwave and Wt.6% WEO obtained a lower viscosity, excellent storage stability, and satisfactory elasticity properties of asphalt. The morphology of modifiers presented a thread-like structure microscopic with the range of WEO content Wt.3%-Wt.6%. Molecular dynamic simulations revealed that the aromatic may be intensively absorbed by CR and increase the likelihood of phase separation. WEO reduced the binding energy of CR to aromatic from 178.0 to 151.5 kcal/mol, which will contribute to the disaggregation of CR clusters. The diffusion coefficient shows a more obvious decrease with the addition of WEO and microwave treatment, which will benefit the stability of the asphalt. This study can provide a reference for the recycling of CR and WEO.
