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 achieve the resource utilization of waste tires and improve the mechanical performance of cemented tailings backfill, rubber-cemented tailings backfill (R-CTB) specimens were prepared with four rubber particle sizes (20-, 40-, 60-, and 80-mesh) and four contents (2%, 4%, 6%, and 8%). A 0% rubber control group was introduced to address the lack of quantitative comparison. Uniaxial compression, digital image correlation (DIC), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to study mechanical behavior, energy evolution, and microstructural characteristics at 7 and 28 days. Results indicate that strength and elastic modulus first increase then decrease with particle size and decrease with content rise. Compared with the control group, R-CTB shows lower strength but significantly higher ductility and energy dissipation. Finer particles cause strain localization; higher content and finer size increase pores and weaken interfaces. Rubber incorporation transforms failure from brittle to ductile, providing a basis for engineering application.
