1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: While systemic factors influence Kawasaki disease outcomes, this study specifically determines the independent and incremental prognostic value of the coronary aneurysm's own characteristics-maximum Methods: This retrospective cohort study enrolled 135 children with KD and coronary artery aneurysms (CAA). We analyzed the maximum Results: The early ZM was a strong predictor of persistent coronary aneurysms at one year (OR = 4.925, Conclusion: The intrinsic characteristics of a coronary aneurysm-its size, shape, and distribution-collectively provide powerful, independent prediction of its persistence at one year. The strong association of specific morphological features with persistence in the high-risk subgroup underscores the value of anatomy-based assessment for refining risk stratification, complementing evaluations based on systemic host factors.
