Measuring trust in healthcare with instruments developed in different disciplines - A scoping review.
Article in Nursing ethics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Understanding the level of trust with timely relevant instrument is a significant process to capture the level of trust beyond organizational changes in healthcare.ObjectivesTo gather, assess, and synthesize the items of instruments evaluating trust in healthcare organizations.DesignScoping review methodology.MethodsThe literature search with deductive-inductive content analysis. The data were charted from articles that involved the use of trust instruments in healthcare organizations.Data SourcesSearch from eight databases was updated in January 2024 and included peer-reviewed articles published between 2010 and 2023.ResultsA total of 13 instruments were found measuring trust in the organization, trust in the leader, and trust among peers in healthcare. The items of instruments about trust in the organization included strategic and operational cultures. The trust in the leader consisted of competence, consistency, openness, appreciative acceptance, and loyalty and risk, while instruments about trust among peers included dimensions of moral partnership, common interest, and competent peers.ConclusionsComprehensively measuring trust in the leader, trust in the organization, and trust among peers is significant due to the multifaceted dimension of trust.
