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

backgroundInfluenza vaccine rates in pregnant women remain suboptimal despite the recommendations from healthcare organizations. Though pharmacists can provide immunization services as a result of the standing order, few studies have examined the role of the pharmacist in providing immunization to pregnant women or explored their perspective on their role in providing influenza vaccines among pregnant women. PURPOSE: This study explored the perceptions and knowledge of Florida pharmacists in administering inactivated influenza vaccines (IIV) to pregnant women.

methodsSemi-structured in-depth interviews guided by the theory of planned behavior were conducted with 18 licensed Florida pharmacists, including clinical and retail pharmacists. A thematic analysis was conducted.

resultsThe majority of pharmacists (94%) were knowledgeable about the IIV in pregnant women. Participants expressed mixed attitudes, identified barriers and facilitators, and subjective norms influencing vaccine administration in pregnant women. Participants expressed the importance of trust and how that influenced vaccine uptake. Participants also expressed their position not to only provide immunization services but also to counsel and educate patients.

conclusionThere is a need to strengthen immunization services, provided by pharmacists to more individuals, including high-risk groups such as pregnant women.
