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

COVID-19 vaccines are safe at a very high rate and protect against severe disease, hospitalization, and mortality. Schools are workplaces with high transmissibility of coronavirus and teachers are at risk of infection. The study aimed to find out the predictors of COVID-19 vaccine uptake in teachers. An on-line cross-sectional survey with a convenience sample was conducted, in Greece, during December 2021. We collected demographic data of teachers and we measured their attitudes towards COVID-19 vaccination and the pandemic. The sample included 513 teachers. The majority of them was vaccinated against COVID-19 (85.8%). The most important reasons for teachers' decline in COVID-19 vaccination were their concerns about safety, effectiveness and the side effects of COVID-19 vaccine. Also, furthermore they were characterized by strong self-assessment that they will not be infected by the COVID-19, and self-assessment that the COVID-19 vaccination will be useless for those who have already been diagnosed with COVID-19. After multivariable analysis, we found that increased age (OR 1.08, 95% CI 1.02-1.14, p = 0.011), and trust in COVID-19 vaccination (OR 2.57, 95% CI 2.07-3.18, p < 0.001) were related with an increased probability of a COVID-19 vaccine uptake. Also, teachers who lived with elderly people or vulnerable groups (OR 4.81, 95% CI 1.55-14.89, p = 0.006) during the COVID-19 pandemic, demonstrated greater probability to take COVID-19 vaccine. The study highlighted the need for reliable and accurate public information on both the risks of coronavirus infection and the vaccines' safety and efficacy.
