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

To address the challenges of inconvenient material sourcing and low stemming efficiency in horizontal tunnel blasting, this study proposes a novel rapid-setting gun mud. The material's composition, formation mechanism, and initial setting characteristics are first analyzed, and a multi-parameter coupled model for optimal stemming length is established. Subsequently, a series of blasting model tests with varying stemming lengths is conducted, followed by a quantitative analysis of the block-size distribution of limestone under different stemming conditions. The influence of stemming length on rock fragmentation characteristics is revealed, and theoretical predictions are validated against experimental results. Findings indicate that the curing process of the proposed material is primarily driven by hydration reactions, with simple operation, environmental friendliness, and safety for workers. Moreover, the developed multi-parameter coupled model for optimal stemming length shows good agreement with experimental results, providing a quantifiable theoretical basis for the refined parameter design in mechanized tunnel blasting.
