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

Molding sand mixtures in the foundry industry are typically composed of fresh and reclaimed sands, water, and additives such as bentonite. Optimizing the control of these mixtures and the recycling of used sand after casting requires an efficient in-line monitoring method, which is currently unavailable. This study explores the potential of an AI-enhanced electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) system as a solution. To establish a fundamental dataset, we characterized various sand mixtures containing quartz sand, bentonite, and deionized water using EIS in the frequency range from 20 Hz to 1 MHz under laboratory conditions and also measured the water content and density of samples. Principal component analysis was applied to the EIS data to extract relevant features as input data for machine learning models. These features, combined with water content and density, were used to train regression models based on fully connected neural networks to estimate the bentonite content in the mixtures. This led to a high prediction accuracy (
