Parents' intention to have their child vaccinated at a community pharmacy: A national cross-sectional survey.
Article in Journal of the American Pharmacists Association : JAPhA. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundDuring the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, pediatric vaccination rates for routine childhood vaccines have been declining. To boost pediatric immunizations, pharmacists in the United States may order and administer age-appropriate vaccines to children of 3 years of age and older without a prescription.
objectiveThe objective of this study was to examine parents' intention to have their young children between 3 and 10 years of age vaccinated in a community pharmacy setting.
methodsA survey instrument was designed based on the health belief model (HBM). The cross-sectional survey was administered online via Qualtrics Panels to parents in the United States with at least 1 child between the ages of 3 and 10 years. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to estimate the correlation between each of the HBM constructs and a 3-item scale measuring parents' intention to have their children between the ages of 3 and 10 vaccinated in a community pharmacy.
resultsThere were 416 usable responses collected for an effective response rate of 25.95%. Most participants were white (79.09%) and female (51.44%), and many had a graduate degree (48.32%). More than half of parents (69.7%) indicated they would be willing to have their child vaccinated in a community pharmacy. Intention to have their child vaccinated in a pharmacy was most strongly corrected with health benefit beliefs (ψ 0.79 [95% CI 0.75-0.83]), (ψ 0.86 [95% CI 0.83-0.89])cues to action, and perceived convenience.(ψ 0.71 [95% CI 0.66-0.76]).
conclusionMany parents have high intention to vaccinate their young children in community pharmacies. Parents should be educated and informed about services that community pharmacies offer. Stakeholders need to engage in interventions targeted at promoting health benefits of getting vaccinations at a pharmacy and strong recommendations from health care providers.
