Mechanical properties of hydraulic concretes with partial replacement of Portland cement by pozzolans obtained from agro-industrial residues: A review.
Review in Heliyon, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 search for alternative material sources to conventional ones has had a significant impact on the construction sector today, driven by the implementation of sustainable development policies on a global scale. Alternative cementitious materials, such as agricultural industry by-products, have been introduced to ensure the efficient use of renewable natural resources while promoting a balance between the technical and economic aspects of infrastructure projects. This article provides an overview of research conducted on the use of pozzolans derived from agro-industrial by-products, such as rice husk ash (RHA), palm oil fuel ash (POFA), and sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA), which have a high content of amorphous silica. This silica reacts with calcium hydroxide during the hydration process of Portland cement, leading to the production of calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) gel with cementitious properties. Investigations have explored the improvements these pozzolans provide in terms of compressive, flexural, and tensile strength in concretes where conventional Portland cement has been partially replaced by these materials. The influence of temperature and grinding processes used in their preparation was also determined, with optimal temperatures for obtaining amorphous silica ranging between 600 °C and 700 °C. Additionally, the optimal replacement levels for enhancing the mechanical properties of concrete were found to range between 10 % and 20 %.
