Advancing COVID-19 Vaccination Equity Among the Refugee Community: An Innovative Multi-Sector Collaborative Outreach Program.
Article in Journal of health care for the poor and underserved, 2022. 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
introductionMulti-sector outreach collaborations have the potential to improve COVID-19 vaccine access among underserved populations, including refugees.
methodsUsing a four-pronged strategy, we offered the local refugee community COVID-19 vaccine appointments within the next week.
resultsOver a thousand (1,327) individuals from more than 20 countries were identified; mean age 36.5 (SD=16.4); 55% female. Initially, 613 (46%) reported being scheduled/vaccinated prior to outreach efforts; 312 (24%) appointments were scheduled that resulted from outreach efforts. By February 2022, 895 (67.4%) of the 1,327 patients had at least one dose; the majority of these were Pfizer (n=750, 84%). Of 895 with first dose, 843 completed two-dose series (94.2%). Overall completion rate of initial series was 63.5%. Reasons for declining (171, 13%) included wanting to speak with a physician or family member first; pregnancy hesitation; postponing until after Ramadan. DISCUSSION: Although lower than local and state rates, this refugee community's COVID-19 vaccine uptake is on par with the overall population in the United States (65.8%). Because of COVID-19's disproportionately negative impact on refugee and other underserved populations, we offer recommendations for future equity-informed efforts.
