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
Objective Vaccines including pneumococcal and influenza vaccines are recommended in patients with immunosuppressive treatment. However, vaccine coverage remains extremely low. Our study was to investigate vaccination uptake, knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) towards certain vaccinations among these patients, and to identify the factors influencing willingness to be vaccinated. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted among patients with rheumatic diseases in a tertiary hospital in China. Baseline assessments were completed by using questionnaires including vaccination uptake and KAP towards certain infections and vaccinations. Results 235 patients completed the study. Mean age was 39.69 years old, while 66.4% were females. Only 6.4% of the participants once had taken vaccine in recent five years. One patient had influenza vaccination, and none ever took pneumococcal vaccine. 3.8% had doctor's recommendation on taking influenza, pneumococcal or herpes zoster vaccine. Major reasons given for not being vaccinated included "unnecessary" (8.9%) and "troublesome to take vaccines" (8.5%). Patients would take influenza or pneumococcal vaccines if they had heard of them before, had knowledge of infection, and had belief in vaccine's safety and reliability (p < 0.05). Conclusion Vaccine coverage among people with rheumatic diseases was low in China. Methods to improve KAP toward infections and vaccinations should be taken.
