Hepatitis B knowledge, screening, and vaccination among Hmong Americans.
Article in Journal of health care for the poor and underserved, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
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
We examined Hmong women and men's knowledge of hepatitis B and their screening and vaccination behavior. In-depth interviews were conducted with Hmong in Oregon aged 18 and older (n=83). Independent samples t-test was used to assess mean differences in knowledge by demographic characteristics. Qualitative data were analyzed using content analysis. Most participants had heard of hepatitis B (96.4%). Fifty-three percent of participants had been screened, and half had been vaccinated (50.6%). Transmission knowledge was significantly higher among younger participants, those born in the U.S., and those who reported seeking preventive care. Sequelae knowledge was significantly higher among those who sought preventive care. Transmission and sequelae knowledge were not associated with screening and vaccination. Qualitative data showed that, of those hepatitis B positive participants, most did not have a comprehensive understanding of their illness. Intervention strategies should address knowledge deficits and improve health literacy, especially among Hmong who have hepatitis B.
