Provider Communication and Mothers' Willingness to Vaccinate Against Human Papillomavirus and Influenza: A Randomized Health Messaging Trial.
Trial report in Academic pediatrics, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
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
objectiveTo understand the effect of a health messaging intervention focused on provider communication about vaccination on mothers' willingness to vaccinate children against human papillomavirus (HPV) and seasonal influenza.
methodsA total of 2476 mothers of 9- to 13-year-olds in the United States completed a Web-based survey in August 2014. Mothers were randomized to 1 of 2 groups targeting HPV or influenza vaccine. Mothers whose child had not received the target vaccine (ie, zero doses of HPV vaccine/no prior-year administration of influenza vaccine) were randomized to the intervention. The study used a 3 × 2 between-subjects design; illustrated vignettes depicted 1 of 3 levels of provider recommendation strength (brief mention of vaccination, strong recommendation of vaccination, or personal disclosure of vaccination of own children), and presence or absence of information comparing safety of vaccination to the safety of a common daily activity. Outcome was mothers' willingness to have their child receive the target vaccine. Perceived benefits of vaccination were assessed before viewing the intervention and were included as a covariate in analyses, along with child gender.
resultsFor HPV vaccine, there was a main effect of safety information (F(1,684) = 7.99, P = .005) and perceived benefits of vaccination (F(1,684) = 221.64, P < .001) on mothers' willingness to vaccinate. For influenza, perceived benefits of vaccination significantly related to willingness to vaccinate (F(1,462) = 105.78, P < .001). Child gender was not associated with willingness.
conclusionsProvider communication about vaccination may need to be tailored to the vaccine in question. A next step to increasing coverage for both HPV and influenza vaccines may be an intervention aimed at increasing mothers' perceived benefits of vaccination.
