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

objectiveRoutine childhood vaccination rates declined nationwide among children born during 2020-2021 compared with prior birth cohorts. We identified sociodemographic risk factors associated with incomplete 7-vaccine series among children born during widespread health care disruptions due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

methodsWe retrieved childhood vaccination data from Louisiana's Immunization Information System for children born from March 1, 2020, through July 1, 2021, to identify completion status of the 7-vaccine series by age 24 months. After geocoding home addresses, we used regression analyses and machine-learning models to identify social vulnerability factors at the individual and census-tract levels that were associated with 1 or more missing vaccine doses.

resultsChildren residing a greater distance from the vaccinating facility (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 1.12; 95% CI, 1.05-1.19;

conclusionWe need further research to identify and implement best practices that help socially vulnerable communities retain access to routine health care, such as childhood immunizations, during future public health emergencies.
