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

Objective: Evaluate factors associated with United States (US) healthcare personnel (HCP) uptake of an updated COVID-19 vaccine. Methods: We analyzed data from 887 US HCP enrolled between September 25, 2023, and April 17, 2024, in a multisite case-control COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness study. Sociodemographic and attitudinal data were collected via standardized surveys, and vaccination status was verified using source documentation. Results: Overall, 188 (21.2 %) HCP received the updated vaccine. HCP aged 50-64 years (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 2.02, 95 % CI: 1.11-3.67) versus ages 18-29, and HCP with undergraduate (aOR 3.75, 95 % CI: 1.97-7.12) or graduate degrees (aOR 7.73, 95 % CI: 4.10-14.55) versus high school/some college had higher odds of vaccination. Nurses and nurse assistants had lower odds (aOR 0.48, 95 % CI: 0.30-0.76) versus other job roles. Vaccinated HCP were more likely than unvaccinated HCP to cite concerns about personal infection (89.9 % vs. 44.6 %), infecting family/friends (96.3 % vs. 56.0 %), vaccine availability (63.3 % vs. 18.9 %), and peer-reviewed literature (56.4 % vs. 28.3 %) as important influences. These factors remained consistent with findings from a prior vaccine season. Conclusions: Vaccine access, education, and peer-reviewed information remain drivers of HCP vaccine uptake. Strategies should address occupational disparities and emphasize transmission risks.
