Prevalence and determinants of child immunization coverage in Ethiopia: Evidence from the 2019 mini-demographic and health survey.

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
Immunization is a crucial public health intervention, and in Ethiopia, a nation characterized by diversity, immunization coverage shows considerable variations. This study aims to assess immunization coverage across various vaccines in Ethiopia and understand the prevalence and factors affecting immunization rates. This study utilized secondary data from the 2019 Ethiopian Mini Demographic and Health Survey (EMDHS), a community-based cross-sectional study. A Poisson regression model was used to evaluate the children's immunization coverage: the number of vaccinations a child received across 18 different vaccines. The overall immunization coverage in Ethiopia was found to be 40%, with significant regional disparities. Coverage was highest in Addis Ababa and Harari and lowest in Afar and Somali regions. BCG had the highest coverage (34.42%), while measles-2 vaccination had the lowest (3.7%). The Poisson regression analysis identified several significant predictors of immunization uptake. Children from wealthier households, those born in public health facilities, and those whose mothers attended antenatal care (ANC) visits had higher immunization counts (
