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.

Abstract
The effectiveness of repair work relies on whether the interface substrate can achieve sufficient bond strength when subjected to numerous stresses. This study investigated the bond properties of repaired normal concrete (NC-to-NC) elements, including cube, beam, and U-shaped specimens, after undergoing natural fracture due to flexural and tensile stresses. The specimens were repaired using a polyurethane (PU) matrix by gluing the two parts and applying compression, splitting, and drop-weight impact (DWI) tests to evaluate the bond strength properties. The results revealed that the PU matrix effectively repairs NC substrate with adequate bond strength, which exceeds the minimum allowable bond strength specified in the ASTM ACI 546-06 to rehabilitate damage concrete structures. The reference beams exhibit a peak applied load capacity of 15.6 kN with less deflection than the repaired samples. The compressive strength of the NC-to-NC repaired specimens loaded along and parallel to the interface plane revealed a decrease in compressive strength of 47.3% and 31.5% compared to the NC-R samples, respectively. The mean number of blows at the cracking stages appeared nearly equal for reference and repaired NC-to-NC specimens. The reference specimens exhibited an average number of 24 and 31 blows at the initial and failure stages, respectively, which were higher by 9.1% and 5.2% than the NC-to-NC repaired specimens. The PU binder showed promising results in achieving adequate interfacial bond strength under static and impact loads.
