Social determinants of health and COVID-19 vaccination: An individual participant data meta-analysis of adult Latino participants.
Synthesis in Preventive medicine, 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
objectiveAlthough disparities in vaccination have been well documented, limited research has examined how specific Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) are associated with COVID-19 vaccination outcomes among Latino subgroups. The aims of the study are to investigate 1) the relative effects of distinct SDOH on reasons for and against vaccination among Latino adults and 2) how these effects may vary by language spoken at home.
methodsA meta-analysis was conducted utilizing person- and study-level data from 13,406 Latino participants in the United States across 12 study samples from 2020 to 2023. Analyses evaluated SDOH effects on (a) reasons for and (b) against vaccination, as well as (c) the ratio of the two. Three SDOH were entered in a single model to compare their relative effect sizes: education, economic insecurity, and healthcare insecurity.
resultsEducation and economic insecurity had the largest effect sizes compared to healthcare insecurity, which was not associated with outcomes. Greater economic insecurity was associated with more reasons against relative to reasons for vaccination. Spanish spoken at home moderated the effect of education levels, increasing both reasons for and against vaccination for highly educated participants, relative to non-Spanish speaking participants.
conclusionsFindings inform future efforts aimed at reducing health disparities. The overall pattern of results suggests tailored interventions aimed at supporting COVID-19 vaccine attitudes in Latino communities should provide supports early and in accessible formats, particularly for communities with low educational levels and who use Spanish at home.
