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

backgroundDespite the increased infection-related morbidity of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), their vaccination coverage is low. Cocooning strategy has not been adequately researched in this group. Our aim was to evaluate vaccination coverage of CKD pediatric and adult patients and their families.

methodsIn this prospective, single-center study, we recorded the vaccination coverage of CKD pediatric and adult patients and their families who attend a tertiary University Hospital. Vaccination rates were calculated according to the national vaccination program. Vaccination of pediatric CKD patients was compared to a control group of healthy children.

resultsThe vaccination rate of 63 hemodialysis patients was low for influenza (61.9%), COVID-19 (79.4% primary, 3.2% booster doses), RSV (50%), herpes zoster (42.4%), hepatitis B (41.3%),

conclusionsVaccination coverage of CKD patients is suboptimal for vaccines particularly important for their condition and their family members are insufficiently informed about potential contribution to their protection by cocooning strategy.
