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
This study employs fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA) to examine 46 Chinese non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and identify the influential factors and developmental trajectories critical for NGO advancement. By integrating the AGIL functional analysis model, the research uncovers that no single factor-be it public expectations, digital technology, governmental support, cross-sector collaboration, key actors, or organizational culture-predominates in fostering advanced development. Instead, it is the combination of these elements that stimulates progress. Five unique pathways for NGO advancement are mapped: internal development, leadership-driven initiatives, strategic external support leveraging, societal adaptation, and an omnibus development approach. Cross-sector collaboration is highlighted as a pivotal factor that enhances NGO networking and facilitates resource sharing and co-creation of value. The study emphasizes the need for proactive public policy engagement, governmental acknowledgment, and fulfillment of public expectations. It underscores the importance of leadership and the cultivation of a robust organizational culture aligned with the entity's mission. This research enriches the theoretical understanding of NGO evolution and provides actionable strategies for NGOs to navigate the complexities of the social sector.
