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

Guardians' satisfaction is an important quality indicator of vaccination services. However, there is insufficient contemporary, post-pandemic research on parent/guardian satisfaction with immunization services in China. In this study, we explore satisfaction of guardians of young children with vaccination services, and factors associated with satisfaction. During December 2022 to March 2023, we conducted a cross-sectional, questionnaire-based satisfaction survey of guardians of 0-6-y-old children attending any of 180 vaccination clinics in 10 provinces selected through a multi-stage stratified random sampling method. The primary outcome was guardian satisfaction with eight aspects of routine immunization services. Among 3,099 guardians, 84.6% were very satisfied or satisfied with all eight aspects of immunization services. Individual item satisfaction ranged from 85.8% (clinic queuing time) to 97.9% (staff service attitude). Multivariate logistic regression showed that medical-worker guardians were 2.13 times more likely to be satisfied than non-medical worker guardians (OR: 2.13; 95% CI: 1.32-3.44); satisfaction was positively associated travel time to clinic ≤10 min (OR: 1.78; 95% CI: 1.45-2.19); making an appointment (OR: 2.58; 95% CI: 2.10-3.16); having confidence in vaccine effectiveness (OR: 2.10; 95% CI: 1.33-3.29) and waiting times ≤10 min (OR: 1.29; 95% CI: 1.05-1.59). Guardians with an annual family income >100,000 yuan had a lower satisfaction level (OR: 0.61; 95% CI: 0.49-0.76). Guardians' satisfaction with vaccination services was high overall, but can be improved. Satisfaction is influenced by guardians' occupation, income, service accessibility, and knowledge. Optimizing appointment systems, shortening waiting times, and enhancing education about vaccination may improve the quality of immunization services and guardians' satisfaction.
