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
The incorporation of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) is a key strategy for enhancing the performance and sustainability of cement-based systems. This research examines the mechanical behavior, microstructural evolution, and durability-related properties of cementitious materials incorporating waste glass powder (WGP) and metakaolin (MK) as partial replacements of Portland cement. Cement pastes were evaluated for compressive strength at 7 and 28 days, while microstructural analysis at 28 days employed gas adsorption and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Based on the compressive strength performance of the cement pastes, ternary WGP-MK mortars were assessed for consistency, flexural and compressive strength, water absorption, and porosity at 28 and 60 days. Results indicate that MK accelerates early-age strength, whereas WGP enhances long-term performance and pore structure refinement. Binary and ternary systems exhibited reduced accessible pore volume, enhanced microstructural homogeneity, and lower water absorption with curing time. The findings demonstrate that WGP-MK blends support clinker reduction without compromising performance, advancing circular economy goals in construction.
