Evaluation of Maternal Immunization Rates in Primary Care: A Retrospective Study From Selected Family Health Centers in İstanbul, Türkiye.
Observational study in International journal of public health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objectives: To assess maternal vaccination coverage in primary care and to examine its association with completion of antenatal care visits and maternal characteristics in Türkiye. Methods: A retrospective record-based observational study including 996 pregnancies registered at Family Health Centers in Istanbul (2020-2022) was analyzed. Vaccination records for tetanus-diphtheria (Td), tetanus-diphtheria-acellular pertussis (Tdap), hepatitis B, influenza, and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) were retrieved from electronic health records and the National Vaccination Tracking System. Women attending all four scheduled antenatal care visits were classified as having complete antenatal care. Descriptive analyses, chi-square tests, and binary logistic regression analysis were performed. Results: Overall, 89.7% of pregnant women received at least one vaccine. Complete vaccination rates were 79.7% for Td/Tdap, while complete hepatitis B immunization status was observed in 9.8%, and complete COVID-19 vaccination in 10.7%. Two-thirds (66.4%) completed antenatal care visits. Complete antenatal care was independently associated with higher odds of vaccination during pregnancy (aOR = 2.91, 95% CI: 1.91-4.44), having a lifetime immunization record (aOR = 3.12, 95% CI: 1.74-5.61) and complete Td/Tdap vaccination (aOR = 2.16, 95% CI: 1.57-2.98). Conclusion: Maternal vaccination coverage in Türkiye remains below international targets except for Td/Tdap. Greater continuity of structured antenatal care and continuity of care visits may be associated with higher maternal vaccination uptake. In addition integrating all recommended maternal vaccines into national protocols may support improvements in immunization coverage.
