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.

2 · The registry

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

Vaccines remain a complex societal issue, and students studying microbiology and immunology should be prepared to talk about vaccines with diverse audience types in their future careers. Thus, it is important to train students in vaccine communication strategies. However, many existing vaccine communication trainings for undergraduate life sciences students do not rely on the latest research on effective science communication strategies. Thus, in this Tips and Tools article, we provide two example modules of how to integrate training in evidence-based science communication approaches, like strategic and inclusive science communication, into undergraduate microbiology/immunology courses in a time-efficient way. We provide data on student perceptions and skills in vaccine communication following these modules to suggest the plausibility and efficacy of integrating time-efficient modules on evidence-based vaccine communication into undergraduate microbiology courses.
