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

When using supplementary cementitious materials to replace cement partially, the carbon emissions of cement products can be reduced, but it often leads to reduced strength. This study explores the application potential of carbide slag (CS) and calcined coal gangue (CCG), byproducts of acetylene production, to partially replace cement. The effects of these two materials on the macroscopic properties and microstructure of cement-based materials were analyzed through systematic experiments. The compressive strength, ultrasonic pulse velocity, and electrical resistivity test results showed that replacing 20% of cement with CCG did not cause significant changes in the test results of the specimens. An X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that these two materials can produce additional hydration products. Scanning electron microscopy images (SEM) further revealed that CCG produces hydration products to fill microscopic pores. Thermogravimetric analysis (TG) results after 28 days showed that with the addition of supplementary cementitious materials, calcium hydroxide (CH) in CS reacts with CCG, resulting in the consumption of CS. Finally, the environmental impact of CS and CCG was assessed. It was found that CS is more favorable for reducing carbon emissions compared to CCG. However, when considering the effect of cement replacement on compressive strength, combining these two materials is more advantageous for sustainable development. Overall, the use of CS and CCG demonstrated good performance in promoting sustainable development.
