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

Coal gangue (CG) is an industrial solid waste produced by coal mining and separation that is considered to have a significant effect on the soil or water environment when exposed to the air, exacerbating ecological pollution. The comprehensive utilization of CG has always been a difficult problem due to the complex mineralogical characteristics. Producing concrete aggregates with CG is an effective strategy for utilising CG resources synthetically. This work studied the mineralogical characteristics of CG discharged from a coal mine in Guizhou Province, China, and the feasibility of producing concrete coarse aggregate by using CG particles. The results indicated that some CGs were mainly composed of coal particles, whereas others were mainly composed of noncoal particles. Based on their apparent characteristics, texture, and cross-sectional characteristics, the CG samples at this sampling point could be divided into 8 categories, and the mass ratio suitable for concrete aggregate production was less than 50%. The average pore size of CG was 5.5 nm smaller than that of the industrial (IS) aggregate, but its porosity and total pore area were 2.31% and 4.5 m
