Downregulated HIPK2 Expression in T Cells Is Associated with Occult Hepatitis B Virus Infection.
Article in Microorganisms, 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
Occult hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection (OBI) has the same transmission routes and clinical outcomes as overt HBV infection. However, due to the lack of reliable biomarkers, its occurrence and potential clinical harm are often overlooked. We previously found that the prevalence of OBI increases with age among individuals vaccinated at birth, but the transcriptome characteristics of their immune cells remain unknown. In this study, fifteen subjects born between 1987 and 1993 and vaccinated perinatally were recruited. They were divided into OBI, inactive chronic HBsAg carriers (ICHC) and healthy control groups. Blood samples were drawn from each subject for scRNA-seq and subsequent validation studies. The results showed that eleven cell types and nine T-cell subsets were identified, with no significant differences in the proportions of T-cell subsets among the three groups. HIPK2 expression in T cells was downregulated 1.42-fold in the OBI group versus healthy controls (
