A multivariable model of barriers to COVID-19 vaccination: Using cross sectional data from a nationally distributed survey in the United States.
Article in Preventive medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveDiscrimination has had longstanding effects on mental and physiological health, which became more evident and synergized during the COVID-19 pandemic. The role of discrimination on vaccination for COVID-19 during the pandemic, however, is not well understood. As such, we examined the relationship of everyday discrimination on COVID-19 vaccination.
methodsUsing a multivariate logistic regression on data collected from a nationally distributed survey in the United States (US), we examined the relationship of discrimination measured by the Everyday Discrimination Scale on self-reported COVID-19 vaccination while adjusting for US nativity, as well as sociodemographic (i.e., age; gender; sexual orientation; race, and ethnicity) and socioeconomic (i.e., educational attainment; employment status; household income) factors.
resultsWe found that participants reporting monthly to weekly discrimination and multiple times a week to daily discrimination had decreased odds of reporting COVID-19 vaccination (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 0.78, 95% confidence interval [CI]:0.68-0.90; and AOR = 0.75, 95% CI = 0.62-0.91, respectively) compared to those that reported no discrimination experienced. Educational attainment of high school equivalent or above, employment as an essential worker, and household-annual income of $50,000 or greater were significant socioeconomic factors. Age, sexual orientation, and race/ethnicity had mixed associations with COVID-19 vaccination.
conclusionsDiscrimination overall remained a significant barrier to vaccination, while nativity was not significant when accounting for socioeconomic and sociodemographic factors. Discrimination must become a public health priority in addressing disparities in health and access and barriers that may affect preventive behaviors.
