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

Over the past decades, the use of fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) for retrofitting existing structures has become a widespread practice. More recently, however, the use of FRP bars as the primary reinforcement in new structures-especially concrete columns-has attracted global attention. Various equations have been proposed to predict the compressive strength of columns reinforced with FRP bars. However, these equations typically estimate axial strength without directly accounting for eccentricity. In this study, additional important parameters are considered: eccentricity of axial load, types of longitudinal and transverse reinforcement, and column height. To this end, a dataset of 525 samples is compiled, and machine learning methods-including artificial neural networks (ANN), gene expression programming (GEP), the group method of data handling (GMDH), and multiple linear regression (MLR)-are employed. Among these, ANN yielded the best predictive performance with an R
