An Experimental and Modeling Study on the Interaction of Cements with Varying C
Article in Polymers, 2026. 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
This study investigates the interaction between polycarboxylate-based water-reducing admixtures (WRAs) and various types of CEM I 42.5R Portland cements, focusing on optimizing input parameters in cementitious systems. Despite the widespread use of WRAs to enhance concrete's workability, strength, and durability, their compatibility with cement remains a critical challenge, often leading to performance issues such as low initial flow, bleeding, and rapid slump loss. This research addresses two significant gaps in the literature: the unexplored use of input parameter reduction in cementitious systems and the application of novel metaheuristic algorithms in optimizing these systems. In this study, 25 WRA were first synthesized to enrich the inputs of machine learning (ML) models. Then, a dataset of 750 entries was generated, and advanced prediction models were developed. To ensure scientific rigor and eliminate data leakage, a triple-split dataset strategy (Training-Validation-Test) and 5-fold cross-validation were implemented. Among the machine learning techniques analyzed, the Optimized Artificial Neural Networks (
