From public healthcare centers to community pharmacies: the new Portuguese seasonal vaccination strategy.
Article in Frontiers in 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
The COVID-19 pandemic significantly altered how countries organize their vaccination strategies. The ongoing discussion now focuses on how these strategies can be integrated into routine vaccination programs. In this context, we illustrate how Portugal has incorporated influenza and COVID-19 vaccinations into community pharmacies in the aftermath of the pandemic. The Portuguese strategy for the 2023-2024 vaccination campaign was led by the Executive Board of the Portuguese National Health Service (SNS) and the Portuguese Directorate-General of Health, in collaboration with over 12 public and private institutions. This strategy included, for the first time, community pharmacies alongside the primary care clinics of the SNS units as the main vaccination points and aligned with the World Health Organization recommendations toward achieving universal health coverage, as it utilized community pharmacies' broad geographical accessibility. Our experience was a success in several metrics. This analysis also highlighted areas for improvement and provided lessons for future campaigns.
