The effects of different dosage levels of hepatitis B vaccine as booster on anti-HBs-negative children 5-15 y after primary immunization; China, 2009-2010.
Article in Human vaccines & immunotherapeutics, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
The changes in lgG antibody levels to hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and in antibody to HBsAg (anti-HBs) seroconversion rates due to different dosages of hepatitis B vaccine (HepB) were compared in 2106 children. Children who had been previously vaccinated as infants with HepB were revaccinated at 5-15 y of age, after which the antibody titers were determined. After the first booster dose, the anti-HBs seroconversion rate (defined as an anti-HBs ≥10 mIU/ml) with 10 μg of HepB (93.6%) was significantly greater than the rate with 5 µg of HepB (90.3%) (P<0.05); the anti-HBs seroconversion rate in 10-15-y-old boys vaccinated with 10 μg of HepB (90.9%) was significantly greater than the rate with 5 µg of HepB (84.3%) (P<0.05). The anti-HBs seroconversion rates after the third booster dose with 5 or 10 μg of HepB were greater than those after the first booster dose (99.6% and 99.7%, vs. 90.3% and 93.6%, P<0.05); as was the corresponding GMTs (658 ± 4 mIU/ml and 2599 ± 3 mIU/ml, vs. 255 ± 11 mIU/ml and 877 ± 11 mIU/ml [P<0.05]). The immunization effects of booster vaccination with 3 doses of HepB with 5 or 10 µg are effective; a single booster dose with 10 µg of HepB for 10-15-y-old boys and with 5 or 10 µg of HepB for 5-9 y old boys and for 5-15-y-old girls are effective in generating protective antibody against HBV; however, for anti-HBs-negative children after a single dose of booster, 3 doses are needed.
