Experimental studies on mix design and properties of ceramic-glass geopolymer mortars using response surface methodology.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
This study explores the mechanical properties of geopolymer mortars incorporating ceramic and glass powders sourced from industrial waste. A Box-Behnken design was employed to assess the effects of ceramic waste powder (CWP) content, alkaline activator ratio, solution-to-binder (S: B) ratio, and oven curing duration on the mortar's performance. Compressive strengths were measured at 3 and 28 days, and regression models were developed to predict these outcomes. The relationships between compressive strength, flexural strength, and ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) were also analyzed. Microstructural and molecular changes were investigated using scanning electron microscopy and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. According to response surface methodology results, the maximum compressive strengths of 22.79 MPa at three days and 25 MPa at 28 days were achieved using a mix containing 85.8% CWP, a 1.02 sodium hydroxide (NH): sodium silicate (NS) ratio, a 0.647 S: B ratio, and a 12-h oven curing time. Optimal oven curing conditions resulted in 28-day compressive strength, flexural strength, and UPV values of 25.7 MPa, 5.62 MPa, and 5765 m/s, respectively..
