Associations between Primary Hyperhidrosis and Psychiatric Conditions: A Matched Case-Control Study of 8,508 Patients.
Article in Skin appendage disorders, 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
Introduction: Primary hyperhidrosis (PHH) is defined by excess sweating not attributable to medications or underlying medical conditions. It is associated with significant burden of subsequent psychiatric comorbidities, but psychiatric conditions preceding PHH diagnosis are not well characterized. We assessed associations of PHH with preceding psychiatric conditions using a matched case-control approach. Methods: Overall, 1,418 participants with PHH and 7,090 matched controls were assessed using the All of Us Research Program database. Multivariable logistic regressions calculated odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals, with Benjamini-Hochberg correction for multiple testing. Results: Subjects with PHH vs. controls had higher odds of prior diagnosis with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) (OR: 1.97, 95% CI: 1.29-2.94, corrected Conclusion: We found significant associations with subsequent PHH diagnosis in participants with OCD, ADHD, RLS, and insomnia. Further research into the etiologies of psychiatric conditions and PHH may better elucidate their relationship.
