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
backgroundThe COVID-19 pandemic has raised the necessity to rapidly develop safe and effective vaccines to limit the spread of infections. Meanwhile, vaccine hesitancy is a significant barrier to community vaccination strategies.
methodsAn internet-based cross-sectional survey was conducted from March to April 2021 during the start of the vaccination campaigns.
resultsA total of 1009 subjects participated, and the mean age (±SD) was 29.11 ± 8.2 years. Among them, 68.8% believed that vaccination is an effective method to control the spread of the disease, 81.2% indicated acceptance of the vaccine, and 87.09% reported that their doctor's recommendation was essential for decision making. After adjusting for socioeconomic characteristics, rural residency (AOR 1.783, 95%CI: 1.256-2.531), working a part-time job (AOR 2.535, 95%CI: 1.202-5.343) or a full-time job (AOR 1.951, 95%CI: 1.056-3.604), being a student (AOR 3.516, 95%CI: 1.805-6.852) and having a partner (AOR 1.457, 95%CI: 1.062-2.00) were significant predictors for higher vaccine acceptance among the study participants. Believing in the vaccine's efficacy showed the strongest correlation with vaccine acceptance (Spearman's
conclusionsAlthough general vaccine acceptance is high (32.85%) in participants in our study, gender and geographic disparities were observed in the investigated urban population of young, well-educated Egyptians.
