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

Digital images are easily transmitted in Internet, but there is also a great risk of information leakage. To meet the requirements of secure image transmission and real-time communication, an image encryption algorithm based on a novel chaotic map and a three-dimensional histogram is proposed. Firstly, a novel two-dimensional chaotic map is designed. Compared with traditional chaotic systems, it exhibits superior chaotic performance and a wider parameter range; secondly, the proposed algorithm is designed to extend the original image to three dimensions, followed by 3D simultaneous scrambling-diffusion; thirdly, the 2D exclusive OR (XOR) operation is performed for further diffusion; finally, the 3D matrix is merged to obtain the encrypted image. The encrypted images have uniform histograms and pass the Chi-square test. Information entropy is greater than 7.9992, and the average values of Number of Pixels Change Rate (NPCR) and Uniform Average Change Intensity (UACI), being 99.6137 and 33.4783, respectively, show that this algorithm can effectively resist differential attacks. On average, a 512 × 512 image can be encrypted in 0.7 s using the proposed algorithm. Thus, the proposed algorithm is applicable to image transmission over network platforms due to its high security, excellent encryption performance, and high efficiency.
