Influenza Vaccine Coverage Lower in Foreign-Born Middle Eastern and North African Children Compared to Other Groups: Results from the 2005-2018 National Health Interview Survey.
Article in Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities, 2025. 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
introductionEstimates for childhood influenza vaccine are unavailable for Middle Eastern and North African (MENA) populations in the USA because they are masked under the White category. The objective of this study was to estimate the prevalence and odds of childhood influenza vaccine coverage among foreign-born MENA compared to US-born White and foreign-born White, Black, Hispanic, and Asian children.
methodsWe analyzed 2005-2018 National Health Interview Survey data. Least squares means was used to calculate the age- and sex-adjusted prevalence. Logistic regression was used to estimate the association between the independent variable, nativity and race/ethnicity, and the dependent variable, influenza vaccine coverage.
resultsThe prevalence of receiving an influenza vaccine was 35% for both foreign-born MENA and US-born White and 26% for foreign-born White children. In multivariable logistic regression models, foreign-born MENA were not statistically different than US-born White children.
conclusionsFuture research should include US-born MENA children and better understand attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors around vaccine coverage.
