Multimodal imaging for cardiac follow-up and management of giant coronary aneurysm related to Kawasaki disease in childhood: a case report.

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
Background: Kawasaki disease (KD) is a rare paediatric condition that can lead to giant coronary aneurysms. Follow-up of such complex coronary lesions remains a challenge, and their management is difficult to standardize. Case summary: Our present case concerns a 17-year-old boy who suffered a giant aneurysm of the left coronary artery, complicated by an asymptomatic stenosis. During regular follow-up, his annual cardiopulmonary exercise test revealed signs of ischaemia (ST depression and premature ventricular complexes). After several further stress tests with inconsistent results, he underwent invasive coronary angiography that revealed significant stenosis with a positive fractional flow reserve (FFR). Discussion: We discuss the challenges of diagnosing and managing coronary artery stenosis in paediatric patients with KD, particularly in cases with calcified and thrombosed lesions. A multimodal approach is crucial, including non-invasive imaging, and coronary angiography with optical coherence tomography and FFR. The evaluation of the lesion and its follow-up is an important factor in anticipating the best therapeutic choice for each patient.
