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

A systematic literature review was conducted to build a comprehensive evidence base of qualitative/quantitative studies to identify barriers and enablers influencing maternal immunization (MI). Searches of seven databases on 20/10/2023 and 26/10/2023 yielded 87,367 records. Two reviewers performed full-text screening of 484 records. English-language articles from countries that had national recommendations for pertussis-containing maternal vaccines and reported on maternal vaccine acceptance, trust, and hesitancy were eligible. Overall, 184 studies were included. Barriers involving individual and group influences like lack of knowledge and reduced awareness of MI, pre-existing anti-vaccination beliefs and attitudes, and perceived concerns about vaccine safety and efficacy were the most prominent. Proactive communication and recommendations from healthcare professionals and public health authorities were major enablers, alongside trusting the information provided by healthcare professionals. Our results show that vaccine hesitancy is a complex phenomenon. Addressing both practical and perceptual barriers to MI might increase vaccination coverage among pregnant individuals.
