Seroconversion of hepatitis B vaccine among patients from outpatient clinic in Georgia.
Article in Vaccine: X, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a serious global health challenge with vaccination being the most effective preventive measure. However, several risk-factors may impact HBV vaccine immunogenicity. We aimed to evaluate the immunogenicity of the HBV vaccine. Methods: Participants' socio-demographic data were obtained from medical records. Anti-HBs testing was performed. Descriptive and bivariate analyses were performed. Results: Among 431 participants, 62.2 % (n = 268) were males. In all, 43.2 % (n = 186) had normal weight, 24.8 % (n = 107) were overweight, and 17.6 % (n = 76) had obesity. Seroconversion after 3-dose HBV vaccination was 74.7 %. Participants with normal weight had higher seroprevalence (n = 156/186, 83.9 %), compared with those with overweight (n = 72/107, 67.3 %) or obesity (n = 48/76, 63.2 %) (Normal weight vs overweight: aOR = 2.44, 95 % CI: 1.38-4.32 and normal weight vs obesity: aOR = 2.97, 95 % CI:1.61-5.47). Conclusion: BMI is an independent factor impairing the vaccine response. These findings urge for more tailored vaccination strategies with focus on higher risk populations.
