A Learning Agenda to Address Immunization Equity and Access for Nigeria to End Zero-Dose Children by 2030: Report from a National Stakeholder Consensus Workshop.
Review in Nigerian medical journal : journal of the Nigeria Medical Association. 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
Background: Nigeria has one of the highest burdens of zero-dose (ZD) children, those who have not received the first dose of pentavalent vaccine, despite multiple national and partner initiatives to strengthen routine immunization. A coordinated national learning agenda is required to guide evidence generation and use for reducing ZD children. The study objective is to describe the process and outcomes of a national stakeholder workshop that used a modified Delphi approach to prioritise learning questions on ZD children in Nigeria. Methodology: The Zero-Dose Learning Hub (ZDLH) convened a national workshop of immunization stakeholders from government, development partners, and civil society. A three-round modified Delphi process was used. In Round 1 (pre-workshop), participants independently scored learning questions derived from global Gavi learning priorities and Nigerian political-economy analyses. In Round 2 (during the workshop), participants discussed and re-scored questions in plenary and small groups. In Round 3 (post-workshop), participants completed a final independent ranking. Results: Ten learning questions were prioritised under three themes: equity, health systems, and innovation. The highest-ranked questions consistently focused on identifying and monitoring zero-dose & under-immunised children; understanding who and where they are and why they are missed; and health-system factors influencing their identification and measurement. Community engagement, data harmonisation, and capacity-building emerged as secondary but important areas. Conclusion: The workshop generated a nationally owned learning agenda that highlights Nigeria's most urgent evidence needs for reaching ZD children. The prioritised questions provide a practical roadmap for NPHCDA and partners to strengthen immunization equity, guide operational research, and support targeted programme implementation.
