Using the Electronic Medical Record to Correlate Kawasaki Disease Phenotypes With Clinical Outcomes.

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
backgroundWe sought to systematically standardize the documentation of clinical and laboratory features in Kawasaki disease (KD) on the day of initial treatment and correlate the presentation with clinical outcomes.
methodsKawasaki disease features and classification were documented by the attending physician using a standardized documentation tool on the day of treatment for KD, including confidence in the KD diagnosis on a 4-point scale. Incomplete KD was further classified using American Heart Association (AHA) criteria (sufficient or insufficient) and baseline echocardiogram data. We prospectively recorded intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) resistance, coronary artery abnormalities (CAAs), periungual peeling, and retrospectively identified subsequent diagnoses of autoimmune/inflammatory disease.
resultsFrom November 2012 to October, 2015, 162 patients were treated for KD: 105 with complete KD (Group 1), 7 with incomplete KD based on CAAs on day of KD diagnosis (Group 2), 23 with incomplete KD meeting AHA criteria (Group 3), and 27 with incomplete KD and insufficient AHA criteria (Group 4). Group 4 patients had lower baseline median C-reactive protein levels (Group 4 median 4.65 mg/dL [interquartile range {IQR}, 2.3-13.6] vs Group 1 median 8.0 mg/dL [IQR, 4.5-17], Group 2 median 13.9 mg/dL [IQR, 1.4-18.2], Group 3 median 13.3 mg/dL [IQR, 4.9-20.2]), and no coronary abnormalities developed, although 11% had IVIG resistance. Group 4 had higher rates of subsequent autoimmune/inflammatory conditions diagnosed (11.1% in Group 4 vs <5% for all others, P = .02).
conclusionsStandardized documentation and classification of KD features may be useful to correlate with clinical outcomes, including subsequent diagnosis of autoimmune/autoinflammatory disease. Among patients with incomplete KD who did not meet AHA criteria and had a normal baseline echocardiogram, the IVIG resistance rate may have been related to a lower likelihood of an accurate diagnosis of KD.
