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

As ocean resources are further developed and utilized, bionic covert underwater acoustic communication (CUAC) is increasingly important for military and underwater telemetry applications. The primary purpose of this study was to design a highly secure and undetectable text information (TI) encryption mechanism to realize CUAC using real bottlenose dolphin vocalizations (BDVs). For this purpose, a chaotic encryption scheme, spread spectrum (SS) technology, and a modified chaotic Hénon map (MCHM) were integrated into a TI encryption and hiding (EH) mechanism. Four BDVs and four test TIs were employed to demonstrate the performance of the proposed MCHM-based TI EH mechanism (MCHMTIEHM). The simulation results show that the MCHMTIEHM yields more accurate de-hiding and decryption results. When the correct encryption and decryption parameters were used, the test TI was completely recovered and could be recognized by humans. When the MCHM encryption and decryption parameters SPx and nI were not identical, tests involving TI01, TI02, TI03, and TI04 demonstrated correct de-hiding and error decryption performance; in particular, the test TI had superior correct de-hiding and error decryption results, was unrecoverable, and could not be recognized by the human eye. The modified amplitude correlation coefficient (ACC) and modified unified average amplitude change intensity (UACI) metrics were used to evaluate the hiding performance of MCHM-based encryption of TI using BDVs. The simulation results show that the average modified ACC and average UACI were 0.99995924 and 3.84×10-6, respectively. Performance was evaluated in terms of the average number of changing SS bit rates (NCSSBRs), the average number of changing bit rates (NCBRs), and the average number of changing character rates (NCCRs) for correct de-hiding and correct/erroneous TI decryption. The average NCSSBRs, NCBRs, and NCCRs were all 0% in correct de-hiding and decryption scenarios, while they were 49.29%, 47.65%, and 98.10%, respectively. with correct de-hiding and error-decryption scenarios. In summary, the proposed MCHMTIEHM yields superior encryption and hiding performance.
