Determinants of Tetanus Toxoid Vaccination Among Women of Reproductive Age in Somaliland: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Health science reports, 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
Background and Aims: Understanding the predictors of Tetanus Toxoid (TT) protection among women of reproductive age is essential for designing effective interventions to eliminate Maternal and Neonatal Tetanus (MNT) in Somaliland. This study aims to identify the sociodemographic, economic, and geographic determinants of TT protection. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using the 2020 Somaliland Demographic and Health Survey (SLDHS). Binary and multivariate logistic regression models, accounting for the complex survey design, were applied to identify determinants of TT protection (receipt of ≥ 2 doses) among 2630 women. Results: Significant predictors included Antenatal Care (ANC) attendance, education, wealth, and region. The adjusted odds of protection were over 8 times higher for women with 4 + ANC visits (AOR = 8.52; 95% CI: 6.31-11.51), nearly 3 times higher for the wealthiest women (AOR = 2.83; 95% CI: 1.98-4.05), and over 3 times higher for women with secondary or higher education (AOR = 3.48; 95% CI: 2.11-5.74). Conclusion: Findings highlight the importance of strengthening ANC services as the primary platform for TT delivery. Tailored interventions are recommended to target the identified risk factors, including uneducated, poor, and rural women, particularly in underserved regions.
