Sweat components as a promising monitoring tool for systemic diseases.
Review in The journal of physiological sciences : JPS, 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
Sweat is a complex biological fluid primarily responsible for thermoregulation, containing diverse organic and inorganic components derived from plasma and interstitial fluids. Its secretion is tightly regulated by hypothalamic-sympathetic pathways and reflects systemic physiological status. Recent studies reveal that sweat composition dynamically changes with various systemic diseases, providing diagnostic, mechanistic, and prognostic insights. Abnormalities in sweat components, such as electrolytes, glucose, lactate, amino acids, and proteins, mirror underlying metabolic, endocrine, immune, and neural dysregulation. This review synthesizes current evidence on how these alterations arise from specific physiological mechanisms-including transdermal diffusion, transporter-mediated secretion (e.g., GLUT2, CFTR), ductal reabsorption, and autonomic control-linking sweat gland biology to systemic homeostasis. These insights support the clinical development of sweat as a non-invasive biofluid for disease monitoring.
