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

backgroundThe treatment of Kawasaki disease-related coronary artery disease (CAD) can be challenging due to long-standing medial calcification and aneurysmal remodeling. CASE SUMMARY: We present a case of a 32-year-old man with Kawasaki disease-related CAD, initially treated with coronary artery bypass graft surgery. The patient experienced early graft failure and presented with recurrent angina 13 months after his surgery. Repeat angiography revealed an occluded saphenous vein graft to the calcific right coronary artery. The right coronary artery was successfully treated with imaging-guided percutaneous coronary intervention using rotational atherectomy and intravascular lithotripsy. DISCUSSION: This case underscores the value of tailored calcium modification and intracoronary imaging in managing Kawasaki disease-related CAD, especially in native vessels after graft failure. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: Kawasaki disease-related CAD presents a clinical challenge in selecting the optimal revascularization strategy. Calcium modification and intracoronary imaging are crucial for a successful percutaneous coronary intervention in Kawasaki disease-related CAD.
