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 enhance the ductility of coal mine filling materials using recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) and address the limitations in RAP recycling and utilization, this study processed RAP into crushed materials (CMs) and ball-milled materials (BMs). Supplementary with fly ash (FA) and cement, RAP-fly ash cement paste backfill (RFCPB) was prepared. For 1000 g of RFCPB slurry, the composition was 365 g CM, 73 g cement, 270 g water, and a total of 292 g of FA and BM, with an F/B ratio ranging from 1:7 to 7:1. A systematic test program was carried out, including rheological property tests, unconfined compressive strength (UCS) tests combined with deformation monitoring, microstructure analysis, and leaching toxicity tests. Based on these tests, the influence of F/B ratio on the action mechanism, workability, mechanical properties, ductility and environmental compatibility of RFCPB was comprehensively explored. The results show that the rheological behavior of RFCPB slurry conforms to the Herschel-Bulkley (H-B) model; with the decrease in F/B ratio, the yield stress and apparent viscosity of the slurry increase significantly, while the slump and slump flow decrease correspondingly, which is closely related to the particle gradation optimization by BM. For mechanical properties and ductility, the 28-day UCS of RFCPB first increases and then decreases with the decrease in F/B ratio, all meeting the mine backfilling strength requirements; notably, the increase in BM proportion regulates the failure mode from brittle to ductile, which is the key to improving ductility. Microstructural analysis indicates that Dolomite and Albite in BM participate in hydration reactions to generate N-A-S-H and C-A-S-H gels, which fill internal pores, optimize pore structure, and thus synergistically improve UCS and ductility. Additionally, the leaching concentration of toxic ions in RFCPB complies with the environmental protection standards for solid waste. This study provides a theoretical basis for enhancing backfill ductility and advancing the coordinated disposal of RAP and fly ash solid wastes.
