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

The purpose of this study was to determine the frequency of concordance and discordance in the COVID-19 vaccination status of intimate couples. Partners are well known to influence each other's health behaviors, but previous reports of couples' COVID-19 vaccination status were not found. Among 1305 respondents to an on-line survey who were living with their partners, couples' COVID-19 vaccination status was 15.63% discordant and 84.37% concordant. Different potentially modifiable reasons for being unvaccinated were emphasized by unvaccinated participants with vaccinated partners and by vaccinated participants with unvaccinated partners. This study provides an estimate of the proportion of couples with discordant COVID-19 vaccine status. The development of tailored, scalable interventions potentially involving the partner might increase the COVID-19 vaccine concordance rate.
