Impact of Image Content on Medical Crowdfunding Success: A Machine Learning Approach.
Article in Journal of medical Internet research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundAs crowdfunding sites proliferate, visual content often serves as the initial bridge connecting a project to its potential backers, underscoring the importance of image selection in effectively engaging an audience.
objectiveThis paper aims to explore the relationship between images and crowdfunding success in cancer-related crowdfunding projects.
methodsWe used the Alibaba Cloud platform to detect individual features in images. In addition, we used the Recognize Anything Model to label images and obtain content tags. Furthermore, the discourse atomic topic model was used to generate image topics. After obtaining the image features and image content topics, we built regression models to investigate the factors that influence the results of crowdfunding success.
resultsImages with a higher proportion of young people (β=0.0753; P<.001), a larger number of people (β=0.00822; P<.001), and a larger proportion of smiling faces (β=0.0446; P<.001) had a higher success rate. Image content related to good things and patient health also contributed to crowdfunding success (β=0.082, P<.001; and β=0.036, P<.001, respectively). In addition, the interaction between image topics and image characteristics had a significant effect on the final fundraising outcome. For example, when smiling faces are considered in conjunction with the image topics, using more smiling faces in the rest and play theme increased the amount of money raised (β=0.0152; P<.001). We also examined causality through a counterfactual analysis, which confirmed the influence of the variables on crowdfunding success, consistent with the results of our regression models.
conclusionsIn the realm of web-based medical crowdfunding, the importance of uploaded images cannot be overstated. Image characteristics, including the number of people depicted and the presence of youth, significantly improve fundraising results. In addition, the thematic choice of images in cancer crowdfunding efforts has a profound impact. Images that evoke beauty and resonate with health issues are more likely to result in increased donations. However, it is critical to recognize that reinforcing character traits in images of different themes has different effects on the success of crowdfunding campaigns.
