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 insufficient shape stability and uncontrollable rheological behavior of 3D printed cement composites (3DPCCs) still limit their wider application in construction. In this study, graded carbonated steel slag powder (CSS1 and CSS2) was used to adjust the rheological properties of 3DPCCs based on the oscillation shear and controlled shear-rate protocols, providing a sustainable and novel strategy for improved printability and mechanical properties. The results showed that the incorporation of carbonated steel slag into 3DPCCs effectively improved the viscoelasticity and yield behavior. As the carbonation time increased from 0 d to 21 d, the dynamic yield stresses of 3DPCCs with CSS1 and CSS2 increased from 126.08 Pa and 116.38 Pa to 707.29 Pa and 509.29 Pa, respectively. In addition, the structural deformation of 3DPCCs with CSS1 and CSS2 decreased from 20.35% and 21.61% to 9.83% and 11.29%, respectively, while the 3-day compressive strength increased from 8.5 MPa and 6.0 MPa to 14.2 MPa and 13.2 MPa, respectively. In conclusion, the carbonated steel slag shows great application potential in improving the rheological behavior and printability of 3D-printed cement composites.
