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
McKee et al make a powerful plea for placing trust-building at the core of public health initiatives. I endorse that call and propose one general principle along with four practical guidelines for building trust between the public and the authorities. The general principle is that trust is rooted in shared identity and that, therefore, the task of building trust is rooted in building a sense of shared identity both amongst the public and between the public and authorities. The four guidelines are (1) trust the people!; (2) recognise and respect difference; (3) engage with the public; and (4) understanding and support trump blame and punishment. Details and justifications for each of these guidelines is provided in Supplementary file 1.
