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
With the proliferation of digital platforms, virtual brand communities have become important contexts for examining how individual perceptions shape discretionary behaviors in online environments. However, the mechanisms through which user experience translates into value co-creation behaviors remain underexplored. Drawing on relationship marketing theory and a behavioral perspective, this study develops and tests a theoretical model linking user experience to value co-creation citizenship behaviors through distinct dimensions of quality of relationship-satisfaction, trust, and commitment. Using a two-wave survey with 549 matched responses, we employ multiple regressions and bootstrapping analyses to assess mediation and moderation effects. The findings indicate that different dimensions of user experience have differential impacts on satisfaction, trust, and commitment, which in turn promote value co-creation citizenship behaviors, supporting their roles as central psychological mechanisms. Specifically, affective and behavioral experiences exert significant positive impacts on value co-creation citizenship behaviors, mediated by all three dimensions (satisfaction, trust, and commitment), whereas the influences of sensory and intellectual experiences are only mediated by two dimensions (satisfaction and trust) of the quality of relationship. In addition, perceived community support strengthens the relationship between satisfaction and value co-creation citizenship behaviors, while it exerts no significant moderating effects on the impact of trust or commitment on value co-creation citizenship behaviors. By situating value co-creation within a behavioral framework, this study contributes to the literature by exploring the mechanism through which user experience influences voluntary, citizenship-like behaviors in digital communities from a relational perspective, and by identifying boundary conditions under which these effects are amplified.
