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

The growing complexity of multi-domain 5G networks exposes critical trust and authentication vulnerabilities that traditional security models cannot address, especially against emerging quantum-era threats. In this paper, we propose the Quantum-Resilient Cross Domain Trust Zero Trust Architecture (QCT-ZTA) model to address end-to-end resilience. Integrating blockchain-based federated trust management systems, cross-chain trust negotiations, and post-quantum cryptography will ensure optimal interoperability and resilience. This framework introduces a Quantum-Resilient Proof-of-Trust (QR-PoT) and dynamic cross domain trust scoring systems that mitigate Sybil, Denial of Service, and poisoning attacks. We utilized OMNeT++, Hyperledger Fabric, and liboqs for post-quantum cryptography to implement and evaluate the model on the 5G-NIDD dataset. The results show 88% accuracy in trust detection, a three-fold decrease in unauthorized access, and 35% better throughput stability, compared to the state-of-the-art models Zero-X and TQFL. This proves that QCT-ZTA provides a scalable and quantum-secure trust architecture that is compliant with the 5G and next-generation 6G infrastructures.
