Distribution of Kawasaki Disease Coronary Artery Aneurysms and the Relationship to Coronary Artery Diameter.
Article in Pediatric cardiology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
We investigated how the diameter of coronary artery aneurysm (CAA) relates to the distribution immediately after Kawasaki disease (KD). Two hundred and four pts (155 males and 49 females) who had undergone selective coronary angiography (CAGs) less than 100 days after the onset of KD were studied. We measured the maximum diameter of each artery segment in the initial CAGs. We analyzed the relationship between the maximum diameters and the distribution of CAA. We divided the patients into four groups based on the maximum CAA diameter in each patient (large(L) ≥8 mm, medium(M) ≥6 and <8 mm, small(S) ≥4 and <6 mm, very small(VS) <4 mm) and counted the affected segments. There were 87, 61, 36, and 20 patients in groups L, M, S, VS, respectively. The number of segments with CAA in each group was L 6 ± 2, M 4 ± 2, S 2 ± 2, VS 2 ± 1. The number of affected segments in L was significantly more than M, and a large value for L indicated that involvement was significantly more likely to be bilateral. The larger the maximum diameter of CAA, the more extensive disease involvement and the more likely to be bilateral. A large maximum CAA can also indicate coronary involvement in the longitudinal directions. It is an important charcteristic in distribution of CAA caused by KD vasculitis.
