1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Food safety can be regarded as a critical aspect of consumer protection, and there is a clear need for related research within the context of food delivery apps. In addition, food safety is a multidimensional concept, and its definition may vary depending on the specific context in which it is examined. Therefore, this work investigates food safety in the case of food delivery apps from the perspective of consumers in the Korean market. Food safety was conceptualized through four sub-dimensions: food healthiness, eco-friendly packaging, review information, and hygiene. The study examined the effects of these four factors on trust in food delivery apps and the influence of trust on continuance intention. Also, this work inspects the moderating role of hygiene in the relationship between trust and continuance intention. The survey participants were recruited via an online survey conducted through a professional research firm, yielding 300 valid responses. Hypotheses were tested using structural equation modeling and Hayes' Process Macro Model 1. The results show that trust is positively influenced by eco-friendly packaging, review information, and hygiene. Additionally, trust significantly affects continuance intention, with hygiene demonstrating a significant moderating effect. This research contributes to the literature by clarifying the definition of food safety in food delivery apps and elucidating the relationships among its key sub-dimensions.
