Effect of internal curing by super-absorbent polymer on hydration of hydrophobic cement-based material.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Hydrophobic cement-based materials are a primary focus in current research due to their potential applications. Nevertheless, the presence of a hydrophobic layer often impedes the hydration process, resulting in reduced concrete strength. In this study, the use of super-absorbent polymer (SAP) to enhance the hydration degree of cement, thereby improving the mechanical properties of hydrophobic cement-based materials, was explored. SAP maintains the intrinsic hydrophobic characteristics of these materials while promoting cement hydration. The hydration degree was assessed using a combined approach of qualitative and quantitative analyses. The underlying mechanisms contributing to the enhanced material strength were elucidated through the calculation and analysis of the cement-air ratio. Additionally, the hydration heat release process was investigated through finite element simulation. The integration of SAP not only strengthens the material but also enhances its crack resistance, significantly broadening the potential applications of hydrophobic cement-based materials.
