Child-parent immunization survey: How well are national immunization recommendations accepted by the target groups?
Article in Vaccine: X, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundPertussis disease rates are high in Switzerland, especially in infants and young infants. To protect newborns from this serious disease, EKIF, the Swiss National Immunization Technical Advisory Group, has recommended vaccination against pertussis during pregnancy (2nd or 3rd trimester) since 2013. Also, since 2009, EKIF has recommended vaccination against influenza during pregnancy.We conducted this study to assess acceptance and implementation of these recently introduced recommendations.
methodsWe performed standardized interviews with parents of children born on or after 01.01.2013, hospitalized at the University of Basel Children's Hospital, Switzerland, between January and June 2017. If participation was declined, partial consent was sought for four questions regarding age, education level, attitudes towards vaccinations in general and availability of vaccination records.
resultsIn 193 of 398 eligible children the mother participated. Five (3%) of 172 mothers had received both pertussis and influenza vaccines during pregnancy, 15 (9%) only against pertussis and 12 (7%) only against influenza. Very few mothers had received vaccination recommendation during pregnancy: 17 (10%) for both pertussis and influenza and 15 (9%) each for pertussis and influenza only. Main reasons for refusal of vaccination despite recommendation were that they were not deemed useful (59% for influenza and 37% for pertussis) and safety concerns for the child (18% for influenza and 26% for pertussis).
conclusionsRecommendation for and immunization rates against pertussis and influenza during pregnancy are low and need to be improved. As recommendations from health care personnel have been shown to have the most significant impact on immunization rates, we propose to focus on improving awareness and acceptance for immunization in pregnancy among health care personnel involved in the care of pregnant women.
