A study on knowledge, attitude and practices (KAP) towards adult immunizations among health care professionals.
Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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: Immunization is a global health success story, saving millions of lives annually. However, there is limited research in India on adult vaccination, particularly across diverse vaccine categories. Our study is the first of its kind to evaluate healthcare professionals' (HCPs) knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) regarding adult immunization across two tertiary care centers in southern India. Aims: To assess the KAP regarding Adult Immunizations among Health Care Professionals. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from June 2023 to November 2024 at Aster MIMS, Calicut, and Kottakkal, among a total of 500 HCPs (Doctors and Nurses). Data collected using a self-administered physical questionnaire. Responses were documented in Microsoft Excel, followed by data compilation and analysis. Results: Among the study population ( Conclusions: This study highlights a gap between KAP related to adult immunization. Family physicians can bridge this gap by promoting awareness, addressing hesitations, and ensuring continuity of care. Systematic approaches like CME programs, reinforcement initiatives, and targeted awareness campaigns are essential to improve adult vaccine uptake in India.
