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

In the era of digital healthcare, accurate and secure 3D visualization of medical data is critical for collaborative surgical planning. Traditional centralized systems suffer from security vulnerabilities and lack of depth cues necessary for accurate visualization of complex anatomy. We present a decentralized Extended Reality (XR)-based framework integrating a Hybrid Biometric Cryptosystem (HBC), hierarchical redactable blockchain, and InterPlanetary File System (IPFS)-based storage to address these limitations. The HBC combines leveled Homomorphic Encryption (HE) and Fuzzy Vault (FV) schemes for privacy-preserving multimodal biometric authentication. A hierarchical blockchain ensures tamper-resistance, consensus-based redactions, and secure access control. Photorealistic, spatially registered 3D models of brain MRI data are rendered in Augmented Reality (AR) and Mixed Reality (MR), enabling intuitive surgical planning. Edge caching accelerates data retrieval, enabling real-time interaction. Real-world deployment on Android and HoloLens 2 platforms demonstrates the clinical utility and robustness of the proposed framework. Security analysis confirms resistance to security threats such as replay, spoofing, etc, and unauthorized redactions. We achieve Equal Error Rates (EER) of 0.53% in AR and 0.68% in MR environments, with average authentication latency under 530 ms. A structured user study involving 40 clinicians confirms the system's clinical utility, usability, and compliance with GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) and HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) regulations. Therefore, the proposed framework offers a scalable, secure, and immersive platform for collaborative medical data visualization in digital healthcare.
