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

Kawasaki disease (KD) is a systemic vasculitis with an unknown etiology affecting young children. Although intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) plus acetylsalicylic acid is effective in most cases, approximately 10-20% of patients do not respond to this therapy. An 8-month-old boy was admitted to a local hospital with the presumptive diagnosis of KD. He received IVIG twice and four series of methylprednisolone pulse therapy from the third to the tenth day of illness. Despite these treatments, his fever persisted with the development of moderate dilatations of the coronary arteries. A diagnosis of refractory KD was made, and infliximab with oral prednisolone was administered without success. Defervescence was finally achieved by cyclosporine A, an inhibitor of the signaling pathway of the calcineurin/nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT). Whole-genome sequencing of his deoxyribonucleic acid samples disclosed two single nucleotide variants (SNVs) in disease-susceptibility genes in Japanese KD patients,
