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
To overcome brittle failure in conventional cold-formed steel-concrete (CFS-C) corner columns, this paper used fiber-reinforced concrete to replace ordinary concrete, investigating failure mechanisms and performance through systematic numerical simulations. A finite element model (FEM) was established and validated by experiments, and the errors for ultimate capacity were within 10%. A series of numerical models was established for parametric analyses focusing on the effects of the parameters of polypropylene fiber (PF), carbon fiber (CF), steel fiber (SF), and bamboo fiber (BF) with different volume dosages and the thickness of cold-formed steel (CFS) on the axial compression ultimate capacity and corresponding displacement of CFS composite corner columns. The results indicated that (1) PF effectiveness was dependent on steel thickness: thicker steel suppressed micro-defects, activated the toughening potential of PF, and increased the ultimate capacity of the columns by 24.8%. (2) CF had a critical dosage of 0.4%: at this dosage, CF increased the column's ultimate capacity by 14.1% through stress redistribution, while when the dosage exceeded this value, fiber agglomeration caused a reduction in the column's strength, with a maximum decrease of 16.2%. (3) SF effectiveness showed a linear increase: at a dosage of 1.6%, SF formed a synergistic three-dimensional bridging network and generated a confinement effect, increasing the column's ultimate capacity by 36.5% and displacement by 92.2%. (4) BF mainly improved the ductility of columns: through crack bridging and pull-out energy dissipation, BF increased column displacement by 33.2%. (5) The modified Eurocode 4 formula could reduce the calculation error of ultimate capacity from 6.3% to within 1%. The findings guide optimal fiber selection and dosage in practice, promoting such columns' use in seismic and load-bearing structures.
