Information needed for optimal immunization related to medical advice: an observational prospective cohort study protocol (INFORMed).
Observational study in Frontiers in public health, 2024. 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
Introduction: Today, accessing information on health issues is easier than ever. However, the flood of information can make decision-making difficult. Information can influence the intention for an action, yet the action often remains unpredictable. It is unclear if there is a relationship between the intention behavior gap and the wish for medical advice in parents of newborns as they have to deal with a number of vaccinations more than any other group of people. According to survey data, vaccine-hesitant people have less interest in vaccine advice. Methods and design: This study aimed to validate and elaborate this finding in a specific population and in a prospective observational manner. This study protocol was registered: https://drks.de/search/en/trial/DRKS00030716, DRKS00030716. The specific objectives include a primary endpoint focused on the wish for advice among hesitant and non-hesitant parents. Secondary endpoints involve comparing parents in terms of their respective information needs, which will be assessed based on: (a) vaccination attitudes at 6 weeks, (b) actual action taken at 12 weeks, and (c) the consistency of their attitudes and decisions. Parents of infants up to 6-week-old will be recruited and asked before the first recommended vaccination period and thereafter when the infant is 12 weeks old. Participants will receive an online questionnaire focusing on the information and advice they would like to receive and have received. Vaccination attitudes will be assessed using the C7C questionnaire at 6 weeks and the actual action of taking the first vaccine at 12 weeks. Discussion: INFORMed will provide data on information needs and wishes of young parents depending on their attitude toward vaccination. Based on the results, health literacy in parents can be improved and information strategies can be adapted.
