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 aims to identify the factors influencing textile and garment SMEs' intentions to adopt digital technology. A survey of owners of textile and garment SMEs respondents was conducted to explore the determinants that shape SMEs' decisions to adopt digital technology using the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT), which was extended with six additional variables: trust and perceived risk for internal of SMEs, competitive pressure and government support for external of SMEs, and non-financial and financial performance for the impact of digital technology on SMEs business. The findings indicate a significant influence of performance expectancy, effort expectancy, trust, government support, and competitive pressure on digital technology adoption by textile and garment SMEs. Then, facilitating condition and behavioural intention significantly influence actual behavior to use, impacting both financial and non-financial performance. The study's findings provide vital insights for owners of SMEs and government (policymakers) for the successful adoption of digital technology. The integration of digital technologies requires specialized skills. Governments and industry associations can implement training programs to equip workers with the necessary skills for operating digital machinery and managing digital systems.
