Patients with inflammatory bowel disease have a lower response rate to HBV vaccination compared to controls.

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
backgroundHepatitis B (HBV) is a vaccine-preventable infection that may cause severe infections, particularly in patients who are being treated with immunosuppressive therapy [(i.e., inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)]. Limited data are available about IBD patients' response rate to HBV vaccine.
aimTo assess the efficacy of HBV vaccine in IBD patients and healthy controls.
methodsSerological markers of HBV were assessed in IBD patients, and HBV vaccine was administered to seronegative patients. The subsequent determination of anti-HBs antibody was recorded. An adequate immune response (AIR) and an effective immune response (EIR) to HBV were defined as more than 10 and 100 mIU/ml, respectively. The single dose vaccine was administered at 0, 1 and 6 months.
resultsA total of 102 patients with IBD (39 Crohn's disease, 63 ulcerative colitis; 54 female, 48 male) and 52 (25 female, 27 male) healthy controls were included. Mean age for patients and controls were 38 ± 12 and 31 ± 8, respectively (P < 0.001). Both AIR and EIR were significantly lower in patients than in controls (P < 0.001), but they were similar between patients with CD and UC (P = 0.302). Forty-four (43%) patients were on immunosuppressive therapy before vaccination. After vaccination, 76 and 53% of the patients had AIRs and EIRs, respectively, whereas 100 and 87% of the controls had AIRs and EIRs, respectively (P < 0.001 and P < 0.001, respectively).
conclusionsThe response rate of IBD patients receiving HBV vaccinations were significantly lower compared to controls. The response rate of those receiving immunosuppressive therapy and with active disease was much too low. Vaccination should be given during remission and at immunosuppression-free times.
