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 examined the impact of trust in government on COVID-19 vaccination in the Republic of Korea during the 2021-2022 period and determined if this impact is unique to COVID-19 vaccines or can be generalized to other vaccines such as influenza. We utilized the Korea Community Health Survey with 458,311 respondents focusing on individuals aged 65 and older. We conducted chi-square tests to analyze differences in vaccination uptake and multivariable logistic regressions, adjusting for age, education level, employment status, social security income, marital status, and comorbidities to determine the association between government trust and vaccination rates. Significant differences were found in vaccination uptake by the level of trust in government. Logistic regression showed that residents in high trust regions had 66.4% higher odds of COVID-19 vaccination (OR = 1.664, 95% CI [1.444, 1.919],
