Racial Influences, Social Media Usage, and Vaccine Hesitancy: A National Survey Across Vaccine Topics.
Article in Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities, 2026. 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
Employing a US national sample (N = 1041), this project investigates the relationship between media usage and vaccine hesitancy, as well as the potential variations in this relationship based on vaccine types and individuals' racial backgrounds. Findings revealed that participants held different levels of acceptance of different vaccines. Compared to other racial groups, African Americans held a lower level of positive attitudes toward different types of vaccines; however, racial groups did not differ significantly in terms of intention to receive vaccines. Individuals' exposure to information emphasizing various aspects of vaccination either mitigate or enhance their vaccine hesitancy. In addition, the number of social media platforms individuals regularly use is negatively associated with their vaccine hesitancy. The study offers valuable insights for addressing vaccine hesitancy in diverse populations. Theoretical and practical implications were discussed.
