A Microservices-Based Solution with Hybrid Communication for Energy Management in Smart Grid Environments.

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.
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
The increasing variability of residential demand, combined with the expansion of distributed generation and electric vehicles, has introduced new challenges to the stability of Smart Grids (SGs). Centralized management models lack the flexibility required to operate under these conditions, reinforcing the need for scalable and data-driven architectures. This study proposes an energy management solution based on microservices, supported by hybrid communication in Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN), integrating Long Range Wide Area Network (LoRaWAN) and LoRaMESH to enhance connectivity, local resilience, and reliability in data acquisition for Internet of Things (IoT) and Demand Response (DR) applications. A prototype composed of a Smart Meter (SM), a Data Aggregation Point (DAP), and a Concentrator (CON) was evaluated in a controlled environment, achieving Packet Delivery Rates above 97%, an average RSSI of -92 dBm, and a Signal-to-Noise Ratio close to 9 dB, validating the robustness of the hybrid communication. At a larger scale, data from 5567 households in the Low Carbon London (LCL) project were used to generate representative Load Profiles (LPs) through seven aggregation and clustering techniques, consistently identifying the 18:00-21:00 interval as the critical peak, with demand reaching up to 42% above the daily average. Fourteen load shifting algorithms were evaluated, and the Hybrid Adaptive Algorithm based on Intention and Resilience (HAAIR), proposed in this work, achieved the best overall performance with a 1.83% peak reduction, US$65.40 in cost savings, a reduction of 60 kg of CO
