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

Vaccination coverage worldwide fell from 86% in 2019 to 83% in 2020. The purpose of this research was to determine the level of full immunization coverage among children aged 12 to 23 months in both urban and rural Southwest Ethiopia. A comparative cross-sectional study of sampled 644 children aged 12 to 23 months was conducted in the community (296 from urban areas and 348 from rural areas). Chi-square testing was used to determine whether there was a significant difference in full immunization coverage between urban and rural children, and binary logistic regression was used to identify predictors of full immunization. This study included 635 caregivers of children aged 12-23 months (292 from urban areas and 343 from rural areas), yielding a 98.4% response rate. The overall, full immunization coverage among the whole children was 66.1%. There was a significant difference in fully immunization coverage between urban 74.3% and rural 59.2% of children (χ2 = 16.126,
