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

Pregnancy increases the risk of adverse outcomes from many infections. SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy leads to higher risks of adverse pregnancy outcomes, including preterm birth, stillbirth, congenital birth defects, and intrauterine growth restriction. Preventing severe illness from SARS-CoV-2 during pregnancy is crucial for improving health outcomes and is best achieved by COVID-19 vaccination. While vaccination is recommended by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and is safe and efficacious during pregnancy, vaccine uptake among pregnant women is starkly lower than in the general population. Through semi-structured interviews, we assessed attitudes towards COVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy and identified key factors influencing decision-making across the healthcare continuum to inform public health interventions. In addition to improving vaccine accessibility and affordability, it is crucial to implement interventions that promote trust in healthcare providers. These efforts are essential to increasing vaccine uptake among this population, providing protection for pregnant women and their children.
