Unusual Manifestations of Kawasaki Disease in the COVID Era: A Case Series and Review of the Literature.

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) is an acute medium-vessel vasculitis, mainly affecting infants older than six months and children under five years. It predisposes to the development of coronary artery aneurysms and constitutes the leading cause of acquired heart disease in children. Its diagnosis is based on clinical criteria, namely, fever lasting for ≥ five days together with at least four of the five principal clinical features of the disease. Occasionally, children with KD present with fever, but they fulfill only some of the five principal criteria, and this is described as incomplete KD. Furthermore, "atypical" KD is a term that is usually used for cases that appear with rather unusual clinical manifestations, which complicate clinical judgment and may delay diagnosis and treatment. In this case series, we present four cases of KD with rather unusual clinical features: a five-year-old boy with lobar pneumonia, a six-year-old girl with orange-brown chromonychia appearing on the 10
