Downregulated Expression of the IL7R and BACH2 Genes Is Associated with Immune Memory Loss in Adults Vaccinated Against HBV at Birth.
Article in Current issues in molecular biology, 2025. 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
Immunization is the most effective way to prevent transmission of the hepatitis B virus. However, about one-quarter of hepatitis B vaccinees (HepB vaccinees) aged around 18 years have lost their immune memory. What is responsible for the loss? Five subjects who became asymptomatic HBsAg carriers after anti-HBs seroconversion and ten controls who were negative for both HBsAg and anti-HBs were recruited from individuals born in 1987 and vaccinated at birth. scRNA-seq was performed on peripheral blood mononuclear cells, including library preparation, sequencing, quality control and filtering, normalization, dimensionality reduction, clustering, cell type annotation, differential expression analysis and trajectory analysis. Twelve cell types and nine subpopulations of T cells were identified. No significant differences in the proportions of cell types and subpopulations were found between cases and controls. The expression levels of immune memory-related genes, IL7R in total T cells and BACH2 in naive CD4+ T cells and naive CD8+ T cells, were significantly downregulated in the cases (
