Subsequent development of Kawasaki disease following acute human adenovirus infection among siblings.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
We report a middle-childhood girl presented with high-grade fever and headache for 4 days. Following this, the child developed mucocutaneous symptoms. She had a notable family history of autoimmune disease. Tests revealed increased inflammatory markers. On the sixth day of illness, a two-dimensonal echocardiogram showed an enlarged coronary artery, diagnosed as incomplete Kawasaki disease (KD) and treated with IVIG and aspirin.Within a week, her younger sibling, an early-childhood girl presented with features of viral prodrome, developed mucocutaneous lesions and subcutaneous oedema of limbs. Her investigations also showed elevated inflammatory markers and echocardiographic changes, diagnosed as incomplete KD.The subsequent development of KD in siblings, both showing initial viral symptoms and a family history of autoimmune disease, led to the suspicion of a potential viral trigger. This was confirmed through viral PCR studies for human adenovirus (type 3). These cases highlight an unusual occurrence of KD developing in siblings following acute adenoviral infection.
