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/

objectivesMaternal immunization against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is an emerging strategy to protect infants during early life when they are most vulnerable to severe RSV infection. However, little is known about the willingness to receive maternal RSV vaccination in China, where the vaccine has not yet been officially approved for marketing. This study aimed to assess the willingness to receive maternal RSV vaccination among women who are currently pregnant and those planning pregnancy in Guangzhou, and to identify the key determinants influencing vaccination willingness.

methodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted in April 2025 among 406 women at Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center, China. Participants completed a self-administered questionnaire covering predisposing factors, enabling resources, health behaviors and awareness, and need factors. Logistic regression analyses were used to identify factors associated with vaccine willingness. A nomogram prediction model was constructed based on significant predictors.

resultsOverall, 67.2% (

conclusionsThis study provides the first evidence on maternal RSV vaccination willingness in southern China and highlights several psychosocial and demographic factors influencing vaccine intentions. The nomogram offers a practical tool to estimate individual willingness and guide targeted communication. These findings have implications for future maternal RSV vaccine application strategies in China.
