Hepatitis B virus functional cure in persons with HIV: what are the predictors and which novel markers are useful?
Review in Current opinion in HIV and AIDS, 2026. 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
purpose of reviewFor individuals with hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) loss is associated with substantially decreased risk of liver-related morbidity and mortality. In recent years, many determinants of HBsAg loss have been investigated in several studies involving persons with chronic HBV infection living with and without HIV. The purpose of this review is to summarize factors that could help predict HBsAg loss in persons with HIV (PWH). RECENT
findingsRates of HBsAg loss can be higher in PWH with HBV compared to those without HIV, which has been partially attributed to immune reconstitution after starting antiretroviral therapy. In recent years, quantitative HBsAg (qHBsAg) levels were identified as the most important single serum marker predicting HBsAg loss. Other viral markers, such as hepatitis B core-related antigen, circulating HBV RNA, and immunological markers (i.e., quantitative hepatitis B core antibody, assessment of HBV-specific immune responses, peripheral blood mononuclear cells phenotypes), might also help predict HBsAg loss in PWH with HBV, particularly for certain sub-populations. SUMMARY: Low qHBsAg before or fast qHBsAg declines after initiating potent anti-HBV therapy has been identified as the most reliable predicting serum marker. Other markers might be useful in certain sub-populations and clinical situations.
