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 rapid advancement of edge intelligence, ensuring the security of edge devices and protecting their communication has become critical. Physical unclonable functions, known as hardware fingerprints, are an emerging hardware security solution enabled with the physical variations inherent in the hardware systems. To facilitate a widespread edge deployment, here we present chip-scale reconfigurable physical unclonable functions built with carbon nanotube charge-trapping transistors, where the charge-trapping memory and physical variations of the transistors are harnessed to render over 10
