Use of Haemophilus influenzae Type b-Containing Vaccines Among American Indian and Alaska Native Infants: Updated Recommendations of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices - United States, 2024.
Article in MMWR. Morbidity and mortality weekly report, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Invasive Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) disease is a serious bacterial infection that disproportionally affects American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) populations. Hib vaccination with a monovalent Hib conjugate vaccine consisting of Hib capsular polysaccharide (polyribosylribitol phosphate [PRP]) conjugated to outer membrane protein complex of Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B, PRP-OMP (PedvaxHIB, Merck and Co., Inc.) has historically been preferred for AI/AN infants, who are at increased risk for invasive Hib disease, because it provides substantial protection after the first dose. On June 26, 2024, CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommended that a hexavalent, combined diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and acellular pertussis (DTaP), inactivated poliovirus (IPV), Hib conjugate, and hepatitis B (HepB) vaccine, DTaP-IPV-Hib-HepB (Vaxelis, MSP Vaccine Company) should be included with monovalent PRP-OMP in the preferential recommendation for AI/AN infants because of the PRP-OMP Hib component. A primary Hib vaccination series consisting of either 1) monovalent PRP-OMP (2-dose series at ages 2 and 4 months) or 2) DTaP-IPV-Hib-HepB (3-dose series at ages 2, 4, and 6 months) is preferred for AI/AN infants. DTaP-IPV-Hib-HepB is only indicated for use in infants at ages 2, 4, and 6 months and should not be used for the booster doses of Hib, DTaP, or IPV vaccines. For the booster dose of Hib vaccine, no vaccine formulation is preferred for AI/AN children; any Hib vaccine (except DTaP-IPV-Hib-HepB) should be used. This report summarizes evidence considered for these recommendations and provides clinical guidance for the use of Hib-containing vaccines among AI/AN infants and children.
