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: To investigate the clinical correlation between the occurrence of coronary artery lesions and platelet levels in children with Kawasaki disease. Methods: Propensity score matching was used to compare platelet parameters (PLT, MPV, PCT, PDW) between KD children and healthy controls. KD patients were divided into lesion and non-lesion groups according to coronary artery lesions. Harada score and multiple linear regression were applied to assess risk and correlation. Results: No significant differences were observed in baseline data between the two groups ( Conclusion: The occurrence of coronary artery lesions in children with Kawasaki disease is closely associated with platelet levels. These findings suggest that platelet parameters are associated with coronary artery lesions in children with Kawasaki disease. Further prospective studies are needed to validate their clinical utility in risk stratification and management.
