Medical Gases as Emerging Regulators of Paediatric Endocrine and Neurodevelopmental Pathways: A Mini-Review.
Review in Acta paediatrica (Oslo, Norway : 1992), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
aimMedical gases, including nitric oxide, carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulphide and molecular hydrogen, have emerged as key regulators of redox balance and cellular signalling. This mini-review examines their relevance to paediatric endocrine and neurodevelopmental pathways, domains particularly sensitive to oxidative and inflammatory disturbances.
methodsWe surveyed preclinical and clinical studies published between 2007 and 2025 on gas-mediated regulation of metabolic-redox homeostasis, bone biology, pubertal control and neurodevelopment. Additional attention was given to conditions marked by oxidative stress, such as Klinefelter and Turner syndromes.
resultsEvidence shows that gasotransmitters modulate synaptic plasticity, neurotransmission and neuroinflammation, influencing disorders such as autism spectrum disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and outcomes after perinatal hypoxia. They also participate in metabolic regulation, osteogenesis, osteoclast activity and hypothalamic control of puberty. These mechanistic insights highlight the emerging translational potential of gas-mediated pathways in paediatric health.
conclusionAlthough paediatric clinical applications remain limited, advances in omics-based profiling, mechanistic studies and biomaterial-supported gas delivery are rapidly expanding the therapeutic horizon. Integrating gasotransmitter biology into paediatric endocrinology and neurodevelopment may support future diagnostic, preventive and targeted therapeutic strategies.
