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

Roller compacted concrete (RCC) has gained prominence in the construction industry due to its durability, cost-effectiveness, and environmental benefits, particularly with the incorporation of high-volume fly ash (HVFA). However, traditional experimental approaches to evaluating RCC's mechanical properties, such as compressive strength (CS) and splitting tensile strength (STS), are resource-intensive and time-consuming. To address these challenges, this study explores the application of artificial intelligence (AI), specifically artificial neural networks (ANN) and a hybrid ANN-Biogeography-Based Optimization (ANN-BBO) model, to predict the CS and STS of RCC. A dataset comprising 168 RCC mixtures, incorporating various material and process parameters, was analyzed. The ANN-BBO model demonstrated superior predictive accuracy compared to a standalone ANN, with R
