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.

Abstract

introductionAmerican Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) individuals were disproportionately affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. We aimed to evaluate whether the presence of chronic health conditions (CHC) impacted COVID-19 testing and vaccination for AI/AN people in Oklahoma.

methodsWe pooled survey data that included adult AI/AN participants weighted using the 2022 American Community Survey. We used modified Poisson regression to estimate prevalence proportion ratios (PPR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) accounting for weighting, multiple imputation, and confounders to determine whether access to COVID-19 testing and vaccine uptake differed by CHC status.

resultsAmong the 1,139 participants, 62.6% reported being diagnosed with a CHC. The majority reported being tested for COVID-19 (80.6%) and that testing access was easy (81.7%). We observed no association between CHCs and being tested (Adjusted PPR: 1.08, 95% CI: 0.97, 1.19) or testing access (Adjusted PPR: 1.08, 95% CI: 0.95, 1.21). Over half (57%) of participants received a COVID-19 vaccine. Among unvaccinated individuals, 9.7% reported they were likely to get a vaccine. While we observed no association between CHCs and vaccine status (Adjusted PPR: 1.08, 95% CI: 0.90, 1.27), unvaccinated individuals with a CHC reported they were more likely to get a vaccine compared to individuals with no CHC (Adjusted PPR: 1.81, 95% CI: 1.01, 2.62). DISCUSSION: The AI/AN population is at higher risk of developing CHC, which increases the risk for severe COVID-19. Thus, evaluating barriers to accessing testing and vaccines is important to improve outcomes. This analysis is important in supporting programs for seasonal epidemics and future pandemics. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBERS: NCT04870307, NCT05236270.
