Ecological Porous Concrete: A Review of Multi-Scale Pore Structure Engineering for Coupled Mechanical and Ecological Performance.
Review in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Ecological porous concrete (EPC) offers both structural performance and ecosystem services, yet an inherent contradiction exists between the ecological benefits of high porosity and mechanical performance. Traditional design methods focusing solely on macro-scale porosity fail to achieve synergistic optimization. This review comprehensively synthesizes the intrinsic correlations between EPC's multi-scale pore structures and key properties from micro-, meso-, and macro-scale perspectives, drawing upon representative studies across experimental, numerical, and theoretical approaches. The microscale reveals interfacial transition zone bonding, capillary pore effects, and alkalinity regulation for vegetation compatibility. The mesoscale clarifies the control of effective porosity, tortuosity, and pore throats on fluid transport and root penetration. The macro-scale analyzes skeletal pore support for plant growth, hydrology, and slope stability. A cross-scale collaborative design approach is proposed, featuring microscopic reinforcement, mesoscopic continuity, and macroscopic moderation. This paper provides theoretical support for EPC's transition from empirical to precision design, promoting low-carbon and large-scale applications in revetments, Sponge Cities, and slope restoration.
