Influenza and pneumococcal vaccination delivery in older Hispanic populations in the United States.
Article in Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
introductionNational reports suggest that Hispanic patients may underutilize influenza and pneumococcal vaccination, although studies sometimes conflict on this point. A clearer picture of adult immunization utilization in older Hispanic patients is necessary to ensure equity in adult vaccinations.
methodsUsing electronic health records from 648 community health centers (CHCs) across 21 states, we compared English-preferring Hispanic patients, Spanish-preferring Hispanic patients, and Non-Hispanic White (NHW) adults aged ≥50 years across five outcomes between 2012-2017: (1) Odds of ever receiving pneumococcal vaccination after age 65, (2) Odds of ever receiving ≥2 pneumococcal vaccinations for those ≥65, (3) odds of vaccination between the ages of 50 and 64 for those with diabetes or heart disease, (4) odds of influenza vaccine, and (5) annual rate of influenza vaccination.
resultsOf our total study sample (N = 143,869), 85,562 were age 50-64 during the entire study period, and 65,977 were ≥65 at some point during the study period. In patients aged 50-64, Spanish-preferring Hispanic patients were more likely to have ever had an influenza vaccination (covariate-adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 1.33, 95% CI = 1.29-1.37), had higher rates of annual influenza vaccination (covariate-adjusted rate ratio [aRR] = 1.41, 95% CI = 1.38-1.44), and higher odds of pneumococcal vaccination (aOR = 1.87, 95% CI = 1.76-1.98) than NHW patients. These findings were similar in Spanish-preferring Hispanic patients ≥65. English-preferring Hispanics ≥65 were less likely than NHW patients to ever have an influenza vaccination (aOR = 0.91, 95% CI = 0.85-0.98) and to have ever received at least one (aOR = 0.92, 95% CI = 0.86-0.99) or two (aOR = 0.86, 95% CI = 0.77-0.95) pneumococcal vaccine doses.
conclusionsIn a multistate CHC network, Spanish-preferring Hispanic patients were more likely to receive influenza and pneumococcal vaccinations than NHW patients; older English-preferring Hispanic patients were often less likely than NHW patients to receive these vaccinations. In vaccine initiatives, English-preferring Hispanic patients may be at higher risk of vaccination inequity.
