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
In the United States, COVID-19 vaccines are widely available, but vaccine hesitancy and vaccine disparities remain. Healthcare providers and community organizational leaders who serve as frontline workers and interact with vaccine-hesitant people, can provide important insights on factors that perpetuate vaccine hesitancy. These perspectives may be especially important for vaccine-hesitant people with intersecting social vulnerabilities, including racial and ethnic minorities who are also LGBTQ+ individuals, immigrants, or pregnant people. While predictors of COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy have been examined, there has been comparatively less research on healthcare providers' and organizational leaders' perspectives about factors influencing vaccine hesitancy. Responsive to this gap, the purpose of this study was to identify healthcare providers' and organizational leaders' perspectives about factors influencing COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy among Latinx people in North Texas who identify as (1) LGBTQ+, (2) immigrants, or (3) pregnant or postpartum individuals. We conducted in-depth interviews with 13 participants that serve these groups. Data were collected in 2022, and interviews were thematically analyzed using MaxQDA software. Participants described misinformation, interpersonal context, and pregnancy concerns as main reasons for vaccine hesitancy among their patients. Findings from this study contribute to overall knowledge of vaccine hesitancy among minoritized people, demonstrating how multilevel factors contribute to vaccine hesitancy. Further, the findings suggest potential pathways where misinformation may operate through interpersonal networks to amplify intrapersonal concerns. Due to current changes in COVID-19 vaccine recommendations, research that focuses on vaccines and misinformation is critical in preventing vaccine hesitancy.
