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

Trusted execution environments (TEE) such as Intel's Software Guard Extension (SGX) have been widely studied to boost security and privacy protection for the computation of sensitive data such as human genomics. However, a performance hurdle is often generated by SGX, especially from the small enclave memory. In this paper, we propose a new Hybrid Secured Flow framework (called "HySec-Flow") for large-scale genomic data analysis using SGX platforms. Here, the data-intensive computing tasks can be partitioned into independent subtasks to be deployed into distinct secured and non-secured containers, therefore allowing for parallel execution while alleviating the limited size of Page Cache (EPC) memory in each enclave. We illustrate our contributions using a workflow supporting indexing, alignment, dispatching, and merging the execution of SGX- enabled containers. We provide details regarding the architecture of the trusted and untrusted components and the underlying Scorn and Graphene support as generic shielding execution frameworks to port legacy code. We thoroughly evaluate the performance of our privacy-preserving reads mapping algorithm using real human genome sequencing data. The results demonstrate that the performance is enhanced by partitioning the time-consuming genomic computation into subtasks compared to the conventional execution of the data-intensive reads mapping algorithm in an enclave. The proposed HySec-Flow framework is made available as an open-source and adapted to the data-parallel computation of other large-scale genomic tasks requiring security and scalable computational resources.
