Kawasaki Disease Presenting Uncommonly with Torticollis: A Case Report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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, febrile, systemic inflammatory disorder affecting children. A subset of KD patients, often infants or older children, does not meet the classic diagnostic criteria. In such cases, delayed recognition of atypical or incomplete KD can increase the risk of coronary artery complications. We report the case of a previously healthy 7-year-old girl who initially presented with isolated cervical adenitis, without fever, conjunctivitis, or extremity edema. She was initially treated for an infectious disease. After 10 days, additional clinical features emerged, raising suspicion for atypical KD. Subsequent evaluation revealed giant coronary artery aneurysms, necessitating coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG), aneurysmectomy, and aneurysmorrhaphy to prevent complications such as aneurysm rupture. She remained asymptomatic during a two-year follow-up period. This case highlights the importance of maintaining a high index of suspicion for KD in children presenting with lymphadenopathy and unusual clinical features, especially when empirical antibiotic therapy is ineffective. Early recognition and treatment are crucial to prevent serious cardiac complications.
