Biodeterioration of Cement and Cement-Polymer Mortars: Analysis of the Influence of the Structure and Distribution of Pores on the Humidity of Mortars Exposed to the Biological Environment.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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 biodegradation of building materials refers to the problem of loss of performance due to biological agents, mainly dry rot fungi, moulds (filamentous fungi), bacteria and insects. Biocorrosion not only leads to the damage and deterioration of building materials, but can also pose a direct threat to human health. Inorganic building materials are a difficult substrate for microorganisms because they need food sources for their metabolism. However, they become colonised by microorganisms. In this paper, the effect of mould fungi on the moisture content and structure of CEM I and CEM I cement-polymer mortars with a 5% polysiloxane latex admixture was analysed. The analysis was carried out after 15 months of exposure to the biological environment. It was found that the cementitious materials were susceptible to the corrosive environment in the form of the filamentous fungi
