Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

The endothelium plays a key role in regulating vascular homeostasis by responding to a large spectrum of chemical and physical stimuli. Vasculitis is a group of inflammatory conditions affecting the vascular bed, and it is known that they are strongly linked to endothelial dysfunction (ED). Kawasaki disease (KD) is one childhood systemic vasculitis, and it represents the leading cause of acquired cardiac disease in children due to coronary damage and subsequent cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality. We aimed to focus on the actual knowledge of ED in the pathogenesis of KD and its practical implications on therapeutical strategies to limit cardiovascular complications. Understanding ED in KD provides insight into the underlying mechanisms and identifies potential therapeutic targets to mitigate vascular damage, ultimately improving cardiovascular outcomes in both the acute and chronic stages of the disease. However, research gaps remain, particularly in translating findings from animal models into clinical applications for cardiovascular lesions and related morbidity in KD patients.
