The trends and determinants of seasonal influenza vaccination after cardiovascular events in Canada: a repeated, pan-Canadian, cross-sectional study.
Article in Health promotion and chronic disease prevention in Canada : research, policy and practice, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
introductionAnnual influenza vaccination is recommended for individuals with a history of cardiovascular disease (CVD) events. We aimed to examine (1) the time trends for influenza vaccination among Canadians with a CVD event history between 2009 and 2018, and (2) the determinants of receiving the vaccination in this population over the same period.
methodsWe used data from the Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS). The study sample included respondents from 2009 to 2018 who were 30 years of age or more with a CVD event (heart attack or stroke) and who indicated their flu vaccination status. Weighted analysis was used to determine the trend of vaccination rate. We used linear regression analysis to examine the trend and multivariate logistic regression analysis to examine determinants of influenza vaccination, including sociodemographic factors, clinical characteristics, health behaviour and health system variables.
resultsOver the study period, in our sample of 42 400, the influenza vaccination rate was overall stable around 58.9%. Several determinants for vaccination were identified, including older age (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 4.28; 95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 4.24-4.32], having a regular health care provider (aOR = 2.39; 95% CI: 2.37-2.41), and being a nonsmoker (aOR = 1.48; 95% CI: 1.47-1.49). Factors associated with decreased likelihood of vaccination included working full time (aOR = 0.72; 95% CI: 0.72-0.72).
conclusionInfluenza vaccination is still at less than the recommended level in patients with CVD. Future research should consider the impact of interventions to improve vaccination uptake in this population.
