1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

This study investigated health care providers' (HCPs') attitudes and experiences with initiating HPV vaccination at 9-10 y old instead of 11-12 y old. We conducted a cross-sectional online survey with 500 US HCPs who reported recommending and/or administering HPV vaccination to pediatric patients, recruited from a membership-based panel. The survey focused on providers' experiences with, and attitudes toward, routine HPV vaccination at age 9-10. Participants included pediatricians (n = 175), family medicine physicians (n = 175), nurse practitioners (n = 75), and physician assistants (n = 75). HCPs were mostly female (56%), white (79%), with a mean age of 43 y. HCPs reported
