Development of a Practice-based Community Outreach Intervention to Prevent Inequities in COVID-19 Vaccinations.

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
Despite disproportionately higher rates of morbidity and mortality from COVID-19 among Black and Hispanic adults in the United States, ethnoracial disparities in vaccination rates emerged rapidly. The objective of this quality improvement study was to rapidly develop and implement an equity-focused community outreach intervention that facilitated COVID-19 vaccine appointments. Using the Plan-Do-Study-Act model, this multipronged, primary care-based outreach intervention developed call/recall systems that addressed vaccine hesitancy and facilitated real-time vaccine scheduling. Through 5058 calls to 2794 patients, 1519 patients were successfully reached. Of the 750 patients eligible for vaccine scheduling, 129 (17.2%) had a vaccine appointment scheduled by the caller and 72 (9.6%) indicated a plan to self-schedule. Low confidence in the vaccine was the most cited reason for declining assistance with a vaccine appointment. Primary care practices may wish to consider introducing similar outreach interventions in the future to address ethnoracial inequities in vaccination distribution.
