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

Although intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) can effectively treat Kawasaki disease (KD), 10-20% of KD patients show no beneficial clinical response. Developing reliable criteria to discriminate non-responders is important for early planning of appropriate regimens. To predict the non-responders before IVIG treatment, gene expression dataset of 110 responders and 61 non-responders was obtained from Gene Expression Omnibus. After weighted gene co-expression network analysis, we found that modules positively correlated with the non-responders were mainly associated with myeloid cell activation. Transcripts up-regulated in the non-responders, IL1R2, GK, HK3, C5orf32, CXCL16, NAMPT and EMILIN2, were proven to play key roles via interaction with other transcripts in co-expression network. The crucial transcripts may affect the clinical response to IVIG treatment in acute KD. And these transcripts may serve as biomarkers and therapeutic targets for precise diagnosis and treatment of the non-responders.
