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
Background and Aims: The prevalence of coexistence of HBsAg and anti-HBs in chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV)-infected patients is different between studies. The mutations on the S gene were proved as the cause of this coexistence. This study determined the frequency and factors associated with coexistence of HBsAg and anti-HBs in chronic HBV-infected patients. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at University Medical Center at Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, from April 2014 to December 2020. HBeAg, HBsAg, and anti-HBs were measured by chemiluminescent immunoassay. Mutations on the HBV small S gene from amino acids 1-227 were detected using Sanger sequencing on 177 patients. Results: A total of 521 chronic HBV-infected patients were enrolled, including 350 males (62.7%), 17.1% with hepatic fibrosis of ≥ F3 and 9.8% with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The coexistence of HBsAg and anti-HBs was detected in 9.8%, with 17.9% among genotype C compared to 7.4% in genotype B, Conclusion: The coexistence of HBsAg and anti-HBs was detected more frequently in the HBV genotype C group. The coexistence status was related to lower HBsAg titers, mutations on the major hydrophilic region, and/or the "a" determinant and exposed significant relation with HCC.
