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 self-limiting, systemic vasculitic syndrome of unknown etiology that primarily affects children under the age of five, with notably high incidence in Asian populations. Although initial treatment with high-dose intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and aspirin can reduce acute symptoms of KD and the risk of coronary artery lesions (CALs), diagnosis remains challenging due to the absence of specific biomarkers and the incomplete understanding of disease pathogenesis, often resulting in misdiagnosis or delayed intervention. Genetic predisposition and immune dysregulation, particularly involving B-cell and T-cell pathways, have been implicated in KD susceptibility and the development of CAL. This review summarizes current evidence on immune-regulatory gene polymorphisms, with a focus on how T-cell and B-cell-related genetic variations may contribute to disease onset and vascular complications. These insights may help inform improved diagnostic accuracy-particularly for incomplete KD-and support personalized treatment strategies, such as corticosteroids or anti-TNF agents in genetically high-risk patients.
