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: Childhood, a crucial phase in one's development, is vulnerable to many vaccine-preventable diseases. COVID-19 pandemic disrupted routine immunization services in the state. Process evaluation of routine immunization service delivery in Assam. Methods: A total of 2312 session sites in 33 districts of Assam were monitored using a supportive supervision tool developed by MOHFW. Descriptive and analytical statistics were used and analyzed using SPSS v. 25. Results: The head count record was present in 88.9% of session sites; 93.5% had an updated due list. A blank MCP card was present in 75.1% of session sites, while in 70.1% of sites, the ANMs did not have the counterfoils. Hand washing facility was available in 81.6% of session sites. There was display of communication materials like posters on routine immunization (61%), posters on intensified Mission Indra Dhanush (IMI) (5.5%), banners (3.4%), and wall painting (on RI; 2.3%, IMI: 0.2%), while no IEC materials were displayed in 12.2% sessions. The availability of immunization logistics ranges from 70% to 94%. Conclusion: Uninterrupted supply chain and sessions as per micro plan with quality maintenance are necessary to further strengthen routine immunization.
