Kansas Provider Report of Adolescent Vaccinations in Their Practice.
Article in Kansas journal of medicine, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundKansas falls consistently below average for adolescent vaccination of meningococcal (MCV), human papillomavirus (HPV), and influenza.
methodsFor this study, the members of Kansas Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics were emailed a confidential electronic survey soliciting their impressions of vaccination in their practice.
resultsOf 137 providers emailed, 61 (45%) completed the survey. Thirteen providers were excluded as they did not see/vaccinate adolescents or did not complete the survey. Tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis (Tdap), and MCV vaccines were most commonly up to date with 31 (65%) and 20 (42%) respondents reporting greater than 90% immunization rates, respectively. HPV (n = 42, 89%) and influenza (n = 40, 83%) vaccines had refusal rates greater than 25% in most clinics. Most practices (n = 44, 92%) used internal electronic medical records to track vaccinations, although 29 practices (60%) utilized the state immunization information system. Providers requested vaccine-specific patient education tools, positive media coverage, staffing support, and best-practices workshops to support vaccination efforts.
conclusionKansas providers may not be optimizing available resources to enhance these rates, such as Web IZ tracking and immunization reminders. Patient education supplies, specific to HPV and Influenza vaccination, potentially could increase vaccination rates.
