Estimating hepatitis A immunity and outbreak risk among MSM in New South Wales, Australia, 2017-2018.

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 2017-2018, New South Wales (NSW), Australia, experienced a hepatitis A virus (HAV) outbreak predominantly affecting men who have sex with men (MSM). We aimed to estimate immunity and identify immunity gaps among MSM in NSW. We triangulated four data sources. We tested 409 residual sera collected from males undergoing syphilis testing between August and October 2017 for anti-HAV IgG. We surveyed all publicly funded sexual health clinics about HAV testing and vaccine provision for the preceding financial year. We conducted a convenience behavioural survey of 50 men at a sex-on-premises venue in October 2017, and we analysed community survey data from 2018 to 2019 (
