Table 4.
Clinical Characteristics of the Two Patient Groups with a Kobayashi Score < 5.
| non-SIRS | SIRS | p-value | |
|---|---|---|---|
| N = 90 | N = 114 | ||
| Gender (male) | 57 (63.3) | 67 (58.8) | 0.51 |
| Age (months) | 24.6 (18.0) | 31.8 (23.4) | 0.01 |
| Z-score of the coronary artery at 1 week of the clinical course | |||
| RCA | 1.18 (1.19) | 1.32 (1.29) | 0.44 |
| LMCA | 1.98 (0.64) | 1.89 (1.01) | 0.51 |
| LAD | 1.17 (0.94) | 1.24 (1.0) | 0.57 |
| Z-score of the coronary artery at 1 month after treatment | |||
| RCA | 0.80 (1.20) | 0.86 (1.21) | 0.71 |
| LMCA | 1.64 (0.71) | 1.44 (0.93) | 0.10 |
| LAD | 0.91 (0.89) | 0.82 (1.03) | 0.52 |
| CAL at week 1 | 5 (5.6) | 18 (15.8) | 0.03 |
| CAL at month 1 | 2 (2.2) | 9 (7.9) | 0.12 |
| IVIG resistance | 14 (15.6) | 16 (14.0) | 0.84 |
Data are expressed as n (%) or the mean (SD). The p-values were calculated using the Fisher's exact test.
RCA, right coronary artery; LMCA, left main coronary artery; LAD, left anterior descending artery; CAL, coronary artery lesion; IVIG, intravenous immune globulin a Data on IVIG resistance were unavailable for five patients with non-SIRS and two patients with SIRS.
