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

Kawasaki disease (KD) is one of the common acquired heart diseases in under-5-year-old children and is an acute self-limiting vasculitis. After nearly 60 years of research, intravenous immunoglobulin combined with oral aspirin has become the first-line treatment for preventing coronary artery aneurysm in the acute stage of KD. However, glucocorticoid (GC), infliximab, and other immunosuppressants are options for the treatment of KD patients with a high risk of coronary artery aneurysm, no response to intravenous immunoglobulin and a confirmed diagnosis of coronary artery aneurysm. At present, there are still controversies over the use of GC in the treatment of KD. With reference to the latest research findings of KD treatment in China and overseas, this consensus invited domestic pediatric experts to fully discuss and put forward recommendations on the indications, dosage, and usage of GC in the first-line and second-line treatment of KD.
