1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Arthritis is a major complication of Kawasaki disease (KD). The aims of this study were to define the frequency and the clinical characteristics of arthritis in KD in China and to analyze the relation between arthritis and coronary outcome in KD. We included 1420 KD patients followed at Jiangxi Children's Hospital from January 2014 to December 2017. Demographic, clinical and laboratory features of KD were analyzed. Among the 1420 patients enrolled, 151 had arthritis. The median age of KD patients with arthritis was 29 months and older than those without arthritis (20 months). Of the 151 patients developed arthritis, 101 patients (66.9%) had oligoarticular involvement and 50 patients (33.1%) had polyarticular involvement. Early-onset and late-onset arthritis were, respectively, observed in 123 (81.45%) and 28 (18.54%) patients. The KD patients with arthritis had significantly increased levels of inflammatory markers, and we observed a higher incidence rate of coronary artery aneurysms among those with arthritis (7.28%) compared to those without arthritis (2.75%) (p = 0.003), but the prevalence of coronary artery lesions (CALs) was similar in the two groups. The arthritis in KD was self-limited, left no sequelae and did not require additional medications. KD patients with arthritis were more likely to get coronary artery aneurysms than the patients without arthritis, so examination of joints in KD was necessary.
