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
Introduction: Public willingness to pay (WTP) for environmental protection is a key indicator of societal readiness to bear the costs of environmental governance. However, the role of citizens' confidence in government environmental performance at different hierarchical levels remains largely unexplored. This study introduces the concept of hierarchical government environmental confidence into WTP research, examining how citizens' differential evaluations of central versus local government environmental governance predict WTP. Methods: Using nationally representative data from the 2021 Chinese General Social Survey (CGSS2021, Results: Both central government environmental confidence (CGC, b = 0.062, Discussion: These findings highlight the importance of hierarchical institutional confidence in shaping public environmental investment and offer differentiated policy implications for urban and rural environmental governance.
