Need to take special care of non-responders to hepatitis B vaccination among health-care workers, students and chronic patients.
Article in Human vaccines & immunotherapeutics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Both our research and that published by Sticchi et al. on immunological memory against hepatitis B virus (HBV) in health-care workers (HCWs) vaccinated as infants or adolescents confirm that in those testing negative after the primary course, one additional (fourth) booster dose is able to elicit an anti-HBs response in >85% subjects. The fifth and the sixth doses further contribute substantially to a high overall response rate. The rate of subjects showing an anamnestic response after the booster dose was almost six-fold higher in HCWs compared to chronic patients. Since universal vaccination in Italy resulted in a significant decrease in HBV infections, special attention and testing should be addressed to those affected by chronic diseases.
