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
Conventional cemented backfill used in narrow end-wall mining entries commonly suffers from shrinkage and insufficient roof contact, reducing its support effectiveness. In this study, a solid-waste-based expansive backfill was prepared from mine overburden, ordinary Portland cement, fly ash and hydrogen peroxide. Orthogonal tests were performed to evaluate the effects of fly ash dosage, aggregate-to-binder ratio and hydrogen peroxide dosage on slurry flowability, expansion ratio and compressive strength. The slurry exhibited a flowability of 17.9-24.7 cm and an expansion ratio of 11.23-46.52%, confirming the gas-generating expansion effect of hydrogen peroxide. The aggregate-to-binder ratio was the dominant factor influencing flowability, expansion and 28 d strength. Multi-index optimization identified an optimal mix of 40% fly ash, an aggregate-to-binder ratio of 4:1 and 10% hydrogen peroxide. The optimized backfill showed age-dependent increases in uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) and elastic modulus, with failure evolving from inclined shear to tensile and tensile-shear composite modes. Its shear behavior followed the Mohr-Coulomb criterion, with cohesion of 1.61 MPa and internal friction angle of 30.13°. SEM observations indicated that aggregate skeleton support, cementitious bonding and gas-generating expansion jointly controlled the material performance.
