1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundCervical cancer is one of the profound threats to women's lives and the fourth most common cancer among women. Ethiopia launched the human papilloma vaccination for the first time, with the support of the Global Alliance for Vaccine and Immunization (GAVI) in 2018. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the acceptability of the human papillomavirus vaccine and associated factors among parents of daughters in Gondar town, Northwest Ethiopia.

methodsA community-based cross-sectional study with a total sample of 946 study participants was conducted in Gondar town from April to May 2019. The study participants were selected using a multistage sampling technique from parents having a daughter of 9-17 years age. Data were collected using an interviewer-administered questionnaire. The data were entered into EpiData version 4.2 and exported to STATA version 14 for analysis. Variables having a p-value of <0.2 and <0.05 in the bivariable and multivariable logistic regression were considered as a statistically significant factor for the acceptance of HPV vaccination.

resultsA total of 899 study participants with a response rate of 95% were included in the study. Among participants in this study, 81.3% with 95% CI (78.6, 83.7) accepted to vaccinate their daughters for HPV vaccination. The acceptance to vaccinate daughters for HPV vaccination was affected by being from the richest household [AOR= 3.44, 95% CI = (1.97, 6.01)], good knowledge about cervical cancer [AOR=5.49, 95% CI= (2.62, 11.52)], and positive attitude towards HPV vaccination [AOR=21.53, 95% CI= (11.60, 39.96)].

conclusionThe study revealed that the acceptance to human papillomavirus vaccination is high and was significantly associated with the level of knowledge about cervical cancer, the attitude towards HPV vaccination, and the wealth status of the households. Therefore, community education on cervical cancer and its prevention is crucial to increase awareness and acceptance as well.
