This study aimed to gather evidence on the efficacy and safety of available treatments for IVIG-resistant Kawasaki disease in children. A network meta-analysis was performed, and infliximab was found to be the best option against IVIG-resistant KD. Infliximab showed remarkable antipyretic activity, but was more prone to causing hepatomegaly. Second IVIG infusions were more likely to result in haemolytic anaemia, and IVMP treatment was associated with bradycardia, hyperglycaemia, hypertension, and hypothermia. The three treatment options showed no significant differences in the risk of developing CAA.
Background: This study aimed to gather evidence from clinical trials on the efficacy and safety of the available treatments for intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG)-resistant Kawasaki disease (KD) in children.Methods: This work adopted the Newcastle-Ottawa scale to analyse the quality of the enrolled articles. A network meta-analysis was performed using clinical trials that compared drugs used to treat IVIG-resistant KD. Aggregate Data Drug Information System software v.1.16.5 was employed to analyse whether infliximab, second IVIG infusions, and intravenous pulse methylprednisolone (IVMP) were safe and effective.Results: Ten studies, involving 704 patients with IVIG-resistant KD, were identified and analysed. Overall, infliximab exhibited remarkable antipyretic activity compared with the second IVIG infusions (2.46, 1.00-6.94). According to the drug rank, infliximab was the best option against IVIG-resistant KD. Regarding adverse effects, the infliximab group was more prone to hepatomegaly. A second IVIG infusion was more likely to result in haemolytic anaemia. IVMP treatment was more susceptible to bradycardia, hyperglycaemia, hypertension, and hypothermia. In addition, infliximab, IVMP, and the second IVIG infusions showed no significant differences in the risk of developing a coronary artery aneurysm (CAA).Conclusion: Infliximab was the best option against IVIG-resistant KD, and IVMP, infliximab, and second IVIG infusions have not significant differences of prevent CAA in patients with IVIG-resistant KD.Systematic Review RegistrationIdentifier: .
