Decreased serum Annexin A1 levels in Kawasaki disease with coronary artery aneurysm.
Article in Pediatric research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundKawasaki disease (KD) is an acute and systemic vasculitis whose etiology remains unclear. The most crucial complication is the formation of coronary artery aneurysm (CAA). Annexin A1 (ANXA1) is an endogenous anti-inflammatory agent and pro-resolving mediator involved in inflammation-related diseases. This study sought to investigate the serum ANXA1 levels in KD patients and further explore the relationship between ANXA1 and CAA, as well as additional clinical parameters.
methodsSerum samples were collected from 95 KD patients and 39 healthy controls (HCs). KD patients were further divided into two groups: KD with CAAs (KD-CAAs) and KD non-CAAs (KD-NCAAs). Serum levels of ANXA1 and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays.
resultsSerum ANXA1 levels in the KD group were significantly lower than in the HC group. In particular, serum ANXA1 levels were substantially lower in the KD-CAA groups. Moreover, serum ANXA1 levels were positively correlated with N%, C-reactive protein (CRP), and IL-6 but negatively correlated with L% in the KD group. Positive correlations between serum ANXA1 levels and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), IL-6, and D-dimer (DD) were observed in the KD-CAA group.
conclusionsANXA1 may be involved in the development of KD, and downregulation of ANXA1 may lead to the hypercoagulability seen in KD. IMPACT: For the first time, it was demonstrated that serum ANXA1 levels were significantly decreased in Kawasaki disease with coronary artery aneurysms. ANXA1 might be involved in the acute phase of Kawasaki disease. Low serum concentrations of ANXA1 might lead to the hypercoagulability stage in Kawasaki disease. ANXA1 might be a potential therapeutic target for patients with Kawasaki disease.
