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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesHispanic children in the U.S. experience disproportionately low COVID-19 vaccination rates, largely due to parental vaccine hesitancy. Digital storytelling offers a culturally relevant approach to address concerns through first-hand narratives. This study examined the feasibility and acceptability of a community-driven digital storytelling intervention to reduce vaccine hesitancy among Hispanic parents.

methodsTen formerly vaccine-hesitant Hispanic parents developed digital stories about their reasons for vaccinating their child(ren) against COVID-19. We then enrolled 80 Hispanic parents whose children were not up to date with COVID-19 vaccines in a randomized feasibility trial. Intervention group participants (

resultsQualitative data suggested that DST was an acceptable and engaging method of health education. Intervention group parents showed moderately larger increases in intention to vaccinate than did controls at T2 (

conclusionsThe community-driven digital storytelling intervention was feasible and acceptable, and findings suggest moderate effects on increasing vaccine intentions and uptake. Future work should evaluate its effectiveness in reducing parental vaccine hesitancy and, in turn, vaccine uptake for other childhood immunizations.
