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

Rock masses in short-term freeze-thaw zones tend to fail under long-term loading. Therefore, investigating the creep damage characteristics of rocks under short-term freeze-thaw cycles is of great significance for the stability evaluation of rock engineering. In this study, white sandstone was used as the research material. Multi-gradient short-term freeze-thaw cycle tests and graded loading creep acoustic emission (AE) tests were performed to investigate the creep behavior and AE response characteristics of sandstone after short-term freeze-thaw action, and a creep damage constitutive model was established. The results show the following: (1) The mass loss rate, P-wave velocity reduction rate, and porosity growth rate of sandstone increase with increasing freeze-thaw cycles and duration. (2) The instantaneous axial strain of specimens increases with the stress level under different freeze-thaw durations and cycle numbers. (3) The cumulative AE event rate decreases significantly with increasing freeze-thaw cycles and duration. (4) Based on the seven-element viscoelastic model, a creep damage constitutive model was developed by introducing the freeze-thaw damage factor (D), with an average goodness-of-fit of 0.964. The findings can provide a theoretical reference for the long-term stability assessment and disaster early warning of geotechnical engineering in short-term freeze-thaw regions.
