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

Quantum cryptography revolutionizes secure information transfer, providing defense against both quantum and classical computational attacks. The primary challenge in extending the reach of quantum communication comes from the exponential decay of signals over long distances. We meet this challenge by experimentally realizing the Quantum-Protected Control-Based Key Distribution (QCKD) protocol, utilizing physical control over signal losses. By ensuring significant non-orthogonality of the leaked quantum states, this control severely constrains eavesdroppers' capacities. We demonstrate the performance and scale of our protocol by experiments over a 1707 km long fiber line. The scalability of the QCKD opens the route for globally secure quantum-resistant communication.
