Predictors of flu vaccination among urban Hispanic children and adults.
Trial report in Journal of epidemiology and community health, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT00448981 (Stopping URIs and Flu in the Family), which is not on this map. Cited by 19 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
The trial behind it

Abstract
backgroundFlu vaccination is effective for preventing infection, but coverage levels in the USA remain low-especially among racial/ethnic minorities. This study examines factors associated with flu vaccination in a predominantly Hispanic community in Manhattan, New York.
methodsHouseholds were recruited during the 2006-2007 and 2007-2008 flu seasons. Primary household respondents were interviewed to determine knowledge of flu transmission/treatment and vaccination status and demographic information for all household members.
resultsVaccination coverage was 47.3% among children <5, 39.3% among 5-17-year-olds, 15.3% among 18-49-year-olds, 31.0% among 50-64-year-olds and 37.1% among adults ≥65 in year 1; and 53.1% among children <5, 43.6% among 5-17-year-olds, 19.5% among 18-49-year-olds, 34.1% among 50-64-year-olds and 34.3% among adults ≥65 in year 2. For children, younger age, having a chronic respiratory condition (eg, asthma), and greater primary respondent knowledge of flu were positively associated with vaccination. Among adults, female gender, older age, higher education, greater primary respondent knowledge of flu, having been born in the USA and having a chronic respiratory condition were positively associated with vaccination. The most common reasons cited for not being vaccinated were the beliefs that flu vaccination was unnecessary or ineffective.
conclusionsPossible methods for increasing vaccination levels in urban Hispanic communities include improving health literacy, making low-cost vaccination available and encouraging providers to use other office visits as opportunities to mention vaccination to patients.
