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
The growing environmental concern over waste tire accumulation necessitates innovative recycling strategies in construction materials. Therefore, this study aims to develop and evaluate sustainable concrete by integrating waste tire rubber (WTR) aggregates of different sizes and recycled waste tire steel fibers (WTSFs), assessing their combined effects on the mechanical and microstructural performance of concrete through experimental and analytical approaches. WTR aggregates, consisting of fine (0-4 mm), small coarse (5-8 mm), and large coarse (11-22 mm) particles, were used at substitution rates of 0-20%; WTSF was used at volumetric dosages of 0-2%, resulting in a total of 40 mixtures. Mechanical performance was evaluated using density and pressure resistance tests, while microstructural properties were assessed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The findings indicate systematic decreases in density and compressive strength with increasing WTR ratio; the average strength losses were approximately 12%, 20%, and 31% at 5%, 10%, and 20% for WTR substitution, respectively. Among the WTR types, the most negative effect occurred in fine particles (FWTR), while the least negative effect occurred in coarse particles (LCWTR). The addition of WTSF compensated for losses at low/medium dosages (0.5-1.0%) and increased strength by 2-10%. However, high dosages (2.0%) reduced strength by 20-40% due to workability issues, fiber clumping, and void formation. The highest strength was achieved in the 5LCWTR-1WTSF mixture at 36.98 MPa (≈6% increase compared to the reference/control concrete), while the lowest strength was measured at 16.72 MPa in the 20FWTR-2WTSF mixture (≈52% decrease compared to the reference/control). A strong positive correlation was found between density and strength (
