Efficacy of codesigned COVID-19 booster vaccine promotion materials for long-term care staff: a cluster-randomized trial.
Trial report in BMC public health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05449418 (ENSPIRE), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
backgroundAmong health care workers, long-term care center (LTCC) staff are among the most hesitant to obtain COVID-19 vaccines and boosters. Our objective was to compare the effectiveness of enhanced usual care (EUC) to codesigned materials (Codesign) in increasing COVID-19 booster vaccination rates and willingness to promote the booster among long term care center (LTCC) staff.
methodsWe conducted a two-arm cluster-randomized trial in 40 LTCCs in Georgia (n = 21) and Washington (n = 19) from August 2021 to December 2023. EUC LTCCs distributed standard government COVID-19 booster promotion materials. LTCCs in the Codesign arm allowed staff to participate in virtual codesign teams. Over 10 weekly meetings, the teams developed tailored COVID-19 booster promotion materials. Materials were distributed to both arms in January 2023. Primary outcomes were LTCC-level COVID-19 booster vaccination and a Net Promoter Score (NPS) measuring booster promotion to coworkers. Secondary outcomes included staff-level vaccine hesitancy and confidence scores and booster promotion to friends and family.
resultsWe did not detect a significant difference between the EUC and Codesign arms in COVID-19 booster rates or primary NPS measure. Similarly, secondary and exploratory outcomes were not significantly different between either arm.
conclusionsThe null findings of this trial are consistent with the challenges of other clinical trials of COVID-19 vaccine-promotion interventions in improving COVID-19 vaccine uptake among LTCC staff. Lessons for future research include identifying better ways to: (1) engage leaders and staff, (2) design more effective targeting messages, and (3) develop ways to target and customize dissemination.
