Exploring Facets of Trust and Religiosity in Organ Donation for Black and White Americans.
Article in Journal of religion and health, 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.

Abstract
This study examines how Black and White Americans perceive two facets of trust (trust in medical doctor and trust in medical care for racial group) and two facets of religiosity (religious service attendance and religious norms regarding organ donation) in relation to the topic of organ donation. Two hundred and one participants (N = 201) were surveyed across the United States using the Qualtrics survey company. Bivariate analyses found donor status was not related to religious service attendance (r = - .001, p > .05) or religious norms (r = .09, p > .05). Donor status was significantly related to trust in doctors, (r = - .25, p < .001) and trust in medical care for racial group, r = - .239, p < .001). Independent samples t-tests revealed Black Americans had significantly lower levels of trust in medical care for racial group than White Americans (t = - 5.14, p < .001) but did not differ in levels of trust in doctor (t = - 1.73, p > .05). The implications of these findings for future research and campaigns are discussed.
