Socio-demographic determinants of influenza vaccination uptake behavior: A nationwide cross-sectional study in Saudi Arabia.
Article in Saudi medical journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
objectivesTo investigate the sociodemographic determinants of flu vaccine uptake among the Saudi population.
methodsA nationwide cross-sectional study was carried out in Saudi Arabia in December 2020, and 1,650 participants took the survey. Data were collected electronically using a structured questionnaire. Logistic regression analysis was carried out to establish the association between vaccine uptake behavior and sociodemographic characteristics of the study participants.
resultsOut of the 1650 participants, 31.5% reported having received the flu vaccine during the 2019-2020 flu season. The logistic regression analysis showed that age above 45 years (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]=2.20, 95% confidence interval [CI]: [1.15-3.05],
conclusionThe findings suggest that efforts to increase flu vaccine uptake should focus on increasing awareness and education regarding the benefits of vaccination, particularly among young individuals.
