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

Crowdlending platforms have gained importance in recent years due to digitalization. The Covid-19 pandemic has severely impacted the entire economy, including repercussions on digital transactions. Investors considering transactions on these platforms require confidence in both the platform and the project in order to make the right decision. For this reason, this study analyzes the links between the parties involved in the process. A survey was sent to 135 investors on the Colectual platform in January 2022, and the research method adopted is Fuzzy Set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA). The study examines the connections between the platform, the investors, and the project developers, to assess the influence exerted by the platform on the confidence of the parties seeking and providing investment. The main result is that Covid-19 has been a key factor in the confidence of investors in the platform, and it has had a significant influence on the investments made.
