Thrombelastogram are associated with coronary artery aneurysm in Kawasaki disease patients.
Article in BMC cardiovascular disorders, 2025. 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
backgroundKawasaki disease (KD) is a common pediatric disease that readily affects the coronary arteries and can progress to form coronary artery aneurysms (CAA). This study aimed to explore the relationship between thromboelastography MA and CAA and to ascertain whether thromboelastography MA could act as a predictor of CAA in KD patients.
methodsA total of 243 consecutive KD patients from January 2020 to December 2022 were included in this study. Differences in baseline characteristics were compared through analysis, and subsequent multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to identify independent risk factors for CAA in KD patients.
resultsAmong the 243 KD patients, 107 were female and 136 were male, with a median age of 23 months. Differential analysis indicated that the R, K, α, gender, WBC, HB, PLT and NLR were not significantly different, but the MA, age, IVIG resistance, CRP and albumin were significantly different between the KD-CAA and the KD-NCAA groups. Subsequent multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that age (Adjusted OR 0.988; 95% CI, 0.977-0.999; P = 0.039), albumin (Adjusted OR 0.902; 95% CI, 0.852-0.956; P < 0.001) and MA (Adjusted OR 1.846; 95% CI, 1.069-3.187; P = 0.028) were independently associated with CAA in KD patients.
conclusionThromboelastography MA is closely related to CAA and may be a predictor of CAA in KD patients.
