Lymphocyte Hydrogen Sulfide Production Predicts Coronary Artery Lesions in Children with Kawasaki Disease: A Preliminary, Single-Center Study.
Article in Journal of tropical pediatrics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
To identify whether lymphocyte hydrogen sulfide production is a potential biomarker for predicting coronary artery lesions (CAL) in children with Kawasaki disease (KD). Eighty-six children with KD, 33 normal children and 43 children with fever from June 2016 to January 2019 in Shaanxi Provincial People's Hospital were enrolled. Of 86 KD patients, 16 patients exhibited CAL. Lymphocyte hydrogen sulfide production was significantly greater in KD patients (13.7 ± 2.7) nmol/min/108 lymphocytes than in the controls (9.26 ± 3.33) nmol/min/108 lymphocytes and the fever group (8.21 ± 2.77) nmol/min/108 lymphocytes. The lymphocyte hydrogen sulfide production was greater in CAL patients than the non-CAL patients [(16.24 ± 1.81) vs. (13.12 ± 2.58), p < 0.001]. Receiver operating characteristic curve indicated when the lymphocyte hydrogen sulfide production was >15.285 nmol/min/108 lymphocytes, the sensitivity and specificity for predicting CAL at convalescence were 87.5% and 82.9%, respectively. Lymphocyte hydrogen sulfide production in the acute period is a potentially useful biomarker for predicting CAL in KD children.
