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 valorization of drinking water treatment sludge (DWTS) and eggshell waste represents a promising route for reducing landfill disposal and developing alternative stabilized materials for geotechnical applications. This study aimed to evaluate the mechanical and microstructural behavior of DWTS stabilized with commercial lime (CL) and eggshell-derived hydrated lime (EHL), including alkali-activated EHL systems. EHL was produced from locally collected eggshell waste through washing, drying, grinding, calcination at 1000 °C for 4 h, hydration, drying, and sieving. The mixtures were prepared with lime contents of 5%, 8%, 11%, and 14%, while NaOH solutions of 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 M were used for the activated systems. A total of 120 cylindrical specimens were compacted under controlled dry unit weight and moisture content and cured for 7 and 28 days. The stabilized DWTS was evaluated through unconfined compressive strength (q
