Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 2025. 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
Background: Immunization plays a critical role in safeguarding public health by preventing the spread of infectious diseases and reducing morbidity and mortality worldwide. Immunization programs not only protect individuals from deadly childhood diseases but also contribute to community immunity, thereby reducing the overall burden of illness. This study aims to study the trend of childhood immunization, nutrition in those under 5 and delivery care in Jammu and Kashmir, from the data available at the public forum of the National Family Health Survey from the third to fifth rounds. Materials and Methods: The indicators of delivery care, nutrition status of children, and vaccination among children below 5 years of age were extracted from the last three rounds of NFHS conducted in 2005-2006, 2015-2016, and 2019-2021. The data obtained were analyzed, and summed up in tables and figures using Microsoft Excel. Results: Rise in vaccination rate, uptake of BCG, measles-containing vaccine, vitamin A (90% to 95%; 66% to 86.2%; 78% to 92%; 12.6% to 82% respectively) from NFHS-3 to NFHS-5. Vaccine uptake in a public health facility increased to 99.1% in NFHS-5. A rise in the percentage of children breastfed within 1 h after birth and exclusive breastfeeding (32% to 55.6% and 42.3% to 62%, respectively) from NFHS-3 to NFHS-5. An increase in wasting and severe wasting (from 14.8 to 19% and 4.4 to 9.7%, respectively) is observed. A rise in institutional births from 50.2% in NFHS-3 to 92.4% in NFHS-5 was reported. Conclusion: Our study highlights a rise in wasting among children under the age of 5 years in J and K despite an increase in vaccination uptake and institutional deliveries from NFHS-3 to NFHS-5.
