Predictive value of aneurysm characteristics for one-year persistence in Kawasaki disease: a retrospective cohort study
The intrinsic characteristics of a coronary aneurysm-its size, shape, and distribution-collectively provide powerful, independent prediction of its persistence at one year. The strong association of specific morphological features with persistence in the high-risk subgroup underscores the value of anatomy-based assessment for refining risk stratification, complementing evaluations based on systemic host factors.
