Characteristics of users of a tailored, interactive website for parents and its impact on adolescent vaccination attitudes and uptake.

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
backgroundWe examined the characteristics of parents using an iPad-based intervention about vaccines, and its impact on vaccination attitudes and behavior.
methodsInterventions were implemented in three primary care clinics from June 2012-September 2013. Baseline and follow up surveys assessed vaccination attitudes and intentions. Medical records were used to examine adolescent vaccine uptake.
resultsDuring the study, 42 parents viewed tailored educational content. Users were generally positive about vaccines, though one out of five worried that vaccines caused more harm than good. Among the 16 parents completing the post-intervention survey, there was a slightly higher, non-statistically significant, mean vaccination intention after viewing the website than prior to viewing it for three of the four adolescent vaccines (all except tetanus-diphtheria-acellular pertussis). Using the intervention did not increase the likelihood of adolescent vaccination.
conclusionsProviding educational material via iPads in clinic waiting rooms does not appear to be an effective strategy for engaging parents about vaccines. Overall, parents' interaction with TeenVaxScene was low, and had little impact on their vaccination attitudes and beliefs. However, use of TeenVaxScene did not appear to worsen parents' attitudes about vaccines. New and creative ideas for engaging parents to use such educational materials are needed.
