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

The periodic assessment of adherence to vaccination recommendations is an essential component of any vaccination process. This study aimed to investigate the adherence of healthcare providers to the international recommendations on influenza and pneumococcal vaccine in patients discharged from the internal medicine department with respiratory diseases. All medical records of adult patients who are 18 years of age and older with respiratory illnesses and who were discharged in January-February, May-June, and October-November of 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 264 discharge summaries from 190 patients were included in this analysis. The mean age was 55.5 years, with 54.7% of them being males. Pneumonia was the leading cause of hospitalization (63.7%), followed by asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbation (27.4%). None of the discharged patients had immunization recommendations at discharge or a documented immunization request within 6 months of discharge from the hospital. The findings of this study demonstrated that healthcare providers need to pay more attention to adhering to the global recommendations on influenza and pneumococcal vaccine among patient who were recently discharged with respiratory disease. Additional measures are needed to improve adherence to routinely recommended vaccines among adults with respiratory diseases.
