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

The absence of carbon fiber-reinforced rebar performance standards in Korea has limited its reliability. This study investigates the durability performance of carbon fiber-reinforced polymer rebar as an alternative to traditional steel reinforcement in concrete structures. Concrete beams reinforced with carbon fiber-reinforced polymer rebar were exposed to chloride environments for durations of 35 and 70 days and then subjected to bending tests to evaluate their durability. The results demonstrate that the strong bond between the carbon fiber-reinforced polymer and concrete effectively prevented brittle fracture, even under exposure to harsh chloride. A scanning electron microscope analysis of the specimens exposed to chloride showed no deterioration of the carbon fiber-reinforced polymer rebar, highlighting its exceptional resistance to corrosion. Furthermore, durability tests were conducted in a carbonation chamber for 8 and 12 weeks, with no signs of degradation in the carbon fiber-reinforced polymer rebar. These findings suggest that carbon fiber-reinforced polymer rebar offers excellent resistance to both chloride-induced corrosion and carbonation, making it a promising solution to enhance the longevity and durability of reinforced concrete structures exposed to aggressive environmental conditions.
