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
Trust plays a pivotal role in consumer decision-making processes, especially in complex areas such as financial services. This study analyzes how general financial trust (GFT)-understood as consumers' overall perception of the trustworthiness of financial institutions-is influenced by national levels of interpersonal trust (IPT) and how this interaction affects key psychological factors in the relationship between customers and financial service providers. Drawing on theories of cognitive consistency, attribution, and prospects, our results indicate that in national markets where the IPT level is low (vs. high), consumers are (a) more inclined to take GFT into account as a factor that directly influences their anticipated outcome (i.e., expectations) and perceived outcome (i.e., quality and satisfaction) and (b) less inclined to take GFT into account as a contextual moderator of the relationships between expectations, quality, and satisfaction. Our study is based on two surveys with bank customers in Sweden (
