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

Frequently, the viscous mixture from shield operations is disposed of because its significant water ratio and the presence of polymers like foaming agents result in subpar structural qualities, contributing to the unnecessary consumption of land and the squandering of soil assets. Therefore, these problems urgently need to be solved economically and effectively. This study relies on the shield sludge produced by Qingdao Metro Line 6 project, and sand and shield sludge were used as the raw materials for synchronous grouting. By applying the basic principles of geopolymerization, ingredients like shield sludge and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) were mixed with sodium hydroxide, serving as the activating agent, in the preparation of the simultaneous grout formulas. A broad range of laboratory tests was conducted to evaluate the performance of these grout formulations. The effects of varying material ratios on key performance indicators-namely, fluidity, water secretion rate, setting time, and 3-day unconfined compressive strength (UCS)-were systematically analyzed. Based on these findings, the optimal material ratios for shield sludge-based synchronous grouting materials were proposed. Subsequently, component geopolymer was prepared from the activated shield sludge and shield sludge without adding any additional alkaline activators by simply adding water. A geopolymer with a 28-day compressive strength of 51.08 MPa was obtained when the shield sludge dosing was 60 wt%. This study aims to provide a reference for the preparation of synchronous grouting materials for the resource utilization of shield sludge.
