Serological Assessment of Hepatitis in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease in Taiwan: A Retrospective Cohort Analysis.
Article in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), comprising ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), is a chronic, immune-mediated inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract. Immunosuppressive therapy administration increases the risk of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) reactivation. This study aimed to investigate the hepatitis screening rate, serological status, and protective antibody levels among the Taiwanese IBD population. This single-center retrospective study included patients with IBD from January 2016 to December 2024. Hepatitis serological markers were analyzed. Patients were categorized into active HBV infection (HBsAg-positive), resolved HBV infection (HBsAg-negative and anti-HBc-positive), and non-HBV-infected groups, with prevalences of 7.5%, 32.5%, and 0.9%, respectively. This study included 347 patients with IBD (UC: 68.3%; CD: 31.7%), with a mean age of 47.1 ± 16.4 years. Patients born after 1984 demonstrated a significantly reduced HBsAg positivity (0.9% vs. 11.0%;
