Pertussis in Southeast Asia: country-level burden and recommendations from the Global Pertussis Initiative.
Review in IJID regions, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
The Global Pertussis Initiative met in March 2024 to discuss the burden of pertussis and prevention efforts in six Southeast Asian countries: Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. Except for Cambodia, pertussis is a notifiable disease; data accuracy varies within and between countries. Most cases in the region are diagnosed based on clinical suspicion. Whole-cell and acellular pertussis combination vaccines are available, but the composition differs between countries. Immunization against pertussis is well-established, but policies regarding boosting vary. Vaccination in pregnancy represents a still-neglected opportunity to protect infants. The Global Pertussis Initiative recommends enacting vaccination in pregnancy in countries without and increasing coverage in countries with policies already in place. There is a need to correct the misperception that pertussis affects children exclusively and that childhood vaccines provide lifelong protection. Education is key to widespread understanding of the threat of pertussis and removing barriers to vaccination in Southeast Asia.
