Logistic regression of attitudes and coverage for influenza vaccination among Italian Public Health medical residents.
Article in Journal of preventive medicine and hygiene, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
introductionA few number of literature specifically addresses vaccination uptake among Public Health Residents (PHRs). Influenza vaccine attitudes and risk perceptions of PHRs across Italy were studied, contributing to literature on influenza vaccination uptake predictors, in particular among young physicians.
methodsAn online survey was conducted in 25 Schools of Public Health in Italy in 2011-2012. Results were analysed using prevalence and logistic regression methods.
resultsA total of 365 Italian public health residents were included in the study. Vaccination uptake was confirmed by 22.2 and 33.2% of PHRs in 2010-2011 and 2011-2012, respectively. For the 2010-2011 influenza season, vaccination was associated with male sex (adj-OR 3.43; 95% CI = 1.5-7.84) and vaccination history (adj-OR 29.44; 95% CI = 6.4-135.04). For the 2011-2012 season, vaccination was significantly associated with having had between one and three influenza vaccinations in the previous five years (adj-OR 11.56; 95% CI = 6.44-20.75) or more than three (adj-OR 13643; 95% CI = 30.8-604.7) and with individual participation in general population vaccination campaigns (adj-OR 1.85; 95% CI = 1.01-3.41). DISCUSSION: Italian residents in public health have no confidence and a low personal risk perception about vaccinations therefore taking no measures to protect patients, general population and themselves. Annual influenza vaccination acceptance is associated with influenza vaccine uptake in the previous years and personal involvement in general population vaccination campaigns. These factors should be considered for the design of future campaigns targeting public health residents.
