Secondary hyperaldosteronism associated with severe infantile atopic dermatitis: a case series.
Article in Annals of pediatric endocrinology & metabolism, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Recent literature has highlighted an association between severe atopic dermatitis (AD) in infancy and biochemical disturbances consistent with secondary hyperaldosteronism. Transepidermal sodium loss driving volume depletion has been hypothesized to contribute to this process, but direct evidence of the underlying mechanisms remains sparse. We present a case series of 3 children, aged 3 to 7 months, who were admitted with severe exudative eczema associated with hyponatremia and hyperkalemia, despite evidence of effective renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system activation and renal mineralocorticoid action. In each case, these biochemical and hormonal disturbances resolved after optimizing dermatological and nutritional management of their atopic presentations, supporting the role of extrarenal mechanisms of electrolyte disturbance. Our case series highlights the importance of considering biochemical and hormonal factors in the comprehensive early treatment of infantile AD to prevent complications associated with electrolyte imbalances and nutritional deficiencies.
