Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only

Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study aims to understand why some parents of children aged 0-4 years are hesitant about vaccines. Researchers will use machine learning to analyze survey responses from 600 parents in Turkey. The goal is to build a model that can predict vaccine refusal, helping public health officials design better strategies to encourage vaccination.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help health officials predict which parents might refuse vaccines and create targeted campaigns to increase childhood vaccination rates.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. The machine learning model may not accurately predict hesitancy in all populations, and results may not apply outside Turkey.
