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

The purpose of this study was to evaluate how an alkali activator, specifically soluble glass, influences the geotechnical performance of sandy-pebble soil when combined with biomass bottom ash (BMA) as a sustainable stabilizing material. This work focused on understanding whether alkali activation could increase the strength, compactness, and overall engineering suitability of these mixtures while also examining how the activator affects permeability. To accomplish this, mixtures containing different proportions of BMA were prepared and treated with soluble glass at controlled water-to-activator ratios, followed by standard geotechnical procedures including Proctor compaction and California Bearing Ratio testing to assess density and load-bearing capacity. The results showed that soluble glass substantially improved the mechanical behavior of the mixtures, with both Proctor density values varying from 1.48 to 2.04 Mg/m
