Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Nowadays, with rapid technology development, individuals have become capable of storing a large amount of information in virtual storage. Even medical organizations use virtual repositories to store important patient data, including personal data, medical histories, and records for medical services. With the database, medical organizations process the available data and take measures to improve the quality of services. When processing statistical and customer review information, there may be inaccuracies due to duplication of patient data. Duplication of data usually occurs through the mistakes of staff members. In this paper, we introduce a novel checksum method for data duplication (CMDD). The checksum method is implemented using Java Platform. Based on the testing results, we are capable of handling data duplication.
