Case of adult-onset Kawasaki disease and multisystem inflammatory syndrome following SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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) and multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MIS) are rare conditions that occur predominately in children. Recent reports document KD and MIS in adult patients following infection with SARS-CoV-2. Rarely, MIS is observed following vaccination against SARS-CoV-2, mostly in patients with prior SARS-CoV-2 infection. We report a case of KD in a man after a second SARS-CoV-2 vaccine dose, in absence of concurrent or prior SARS-CoV-2 infection. This patient also met criteria for probable MIS associated with vaccination. He tested negative for SARS-CoV-2 RNA via reverse transcriptase PCR, negative for SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid antibodies and demonstrated high levels SARS-CoV-2 spike protein antibodies, commonly used to assess vaccine response. Symptom improvement followed treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin, including desquamation of the hands and feet. As widespread vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 continues, increased vigilance and prompt intervention is necessary to limit the effects of postvaccination inflammatory syndromes.
