Perhaps.  How have you set gnus-agent-mark-unread-after-downloaded?
If it is set(t) per the default then the agent may have updated its
NOV database so that your headers are correct but the articles
themselves have not bee fetched.  If you have cleared
gnus-agent-mark-unread-after-downloaded, then refetching the articles
will not change their status.

I could not find this variable.

Could possible the gnus-cache-generate-nov-databases function have the
same effect?
