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

This study examines concrete polishing waste (CFPW) potential as a partial cement substitute in mortar formulation. Concrete polishing waste, a by-product of the grinding and polishing of concrete surfaces, is mainly composed of fine particles of silica and calcium carbonate. The aim of the research was to assess this industry waste incorporation impact on various mortar properties. Four mixes containing different percentages of CFPW were tested for their physic-mechanical properties and environmental impact. The results show that increasing the CFPW percentage leads to higher porosity and shrinkage, as well as lower mechanical strength and density. However, a significant reduction in CO
