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

With the advancement of modern technologies, the digitization of metering data has significantly improved the efficiency and accuracy of data collection, analysis, and management. However, the growing prevalence of data tampering techniques has raised serious concerns regarding the trustworthiness and integrity of such data. To address this challenge, this study proposes an improved SM2 digital signature algorithm enhanced with high-precision time information to strengthen the reliability of metering data. The proposed algorithm incorporates high-precision timestamps into the signature generation and verification processes, while optimizing the structure of the signature algorithm-particularly the modular inversion operation-to reduce computational costs. Experimental results demonstrate that the improved algorithm not only significantly enhances signature generation efficiency but also improves temporal validity and security by leveraging high-precision time information. It effectively mitigates risks associated with random number dependency and replay attacks, offering a secure and efficient solution for trustworthy metering data verification.
