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
Background: Kawasaki disease (KD) is a vascular inflammatory disease with unknown pathogenesis. There are few studies on KD combined with sepsis worldwide. Purpose: To provide valuable data regarding clinical characteristics and outcomes related to pediatric patients with KD combined with sepsis in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 44 pediatric patients admitted in PICU at Hunan Children's Hospital with KD combined with sepsis between January 2018 and July 2021. Results: Of the 44 pediatric patients (mean age, 28.18 ± 24.28 months), 29 were males and 15 were female. We further divided the 44 patients into two groups: KD combined with severe sepsis (n=19) and KD combined with non-severe sepsis (n=25). There were no significant between-group differences in leukocyte, C-reactive protein, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate. Interleukin-6, interleukin-2, interleukin-4 and procalcitonin in KD with severe sepsis group were significantly higher than those in KD with non-severe sepsis group. And the percentage of suppressor T lymphocyte and natural killer cell in severe sepsis group were significantly higher than those in non-severe group, while the CD4 Conclusion: Children who develop with KD combined with sepsis have different degrees of inflammatory response and cellular immunosuppression, and the degree of inflammatory response and cellular immunosuppression is significantly correlated with the severity of the disease.
