A lipid-related transcriptomic signature for distinguishing Kawasaki disease from febrile infections: a Mendelian randomization and machine-learning study
Background Kawasaki disease (KD) diagnosis remains challenging because no pathognomonic test exists and the clinical presentation overlaps extensively with common childhood infections. Acute KD is accompanied by reproducible lipid perturbations, yet whether these changes are causally linked to the innate immune-driven...
