Awareness about Human Papillomavirus Vaccine and Its Uptake among Women from North India: Evidence from a Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
objectiveThis study aims to estimate the prevalence of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine usage and determine the factors for awareness about HPV vaccine among women in reproductive age group.
methodsThis is a cross-sectional survey under a cervical cancer prevention study. The sample size was 1020 women, aged 15-49 years [550 in Delhi and 470 in Rohtak]. Bivariate analysis and Fisher exact test along with binary logistic regression analysis were used to determine the factors for awareness.
resultAbout 18.0 % [Delhi: 24.2 % and Rohtak: 10.9 %] of the respondents had heard about the vaccine against cervical cancer. The women aged more than 30 years [AOR: 1.35; CI: 0.94, 1.94] were more likely to be aware of cervical cancer vaccine as compare to women of 30 years and less. However, the women from Rohtak [AOR: 0.90; CI: 0.48, 1.66] were less likely to be aware of vaccine against cervical cancer in reference to women aged 30 years and more [AOR: 1.61; CI: 1.01, 2.56] from Delhi. About 0.6 % [Delhi: 1.1 % and Rohtak: 0.0 %] of the respondents had received HPV vaccine.
conclusionWomen tend to have limited knowledge about cervical cancer vaccine and immunisation practices. The women's demographic makeup varied significantly between the two sites, i.e , Rohtak and Delhi, which had an impact on how well they understood and utilised the cervical cancer vaccination. It is worth mentioning that none of the women from Rohtak had received the immunisation. The awareness of the cervical cancer vaccine among women from the Rohtak was lower than the Delhi women.
