Research Techniques Made Simple: Profiling the Skin Microbiota.
Review in The Journal of investigative dermatology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 42 papers.
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
Skin is colonized by microbial communities (microbiota) that participate in immune homeostasis, development and maintenance of barrier function, and protection from pathogens. The past decade has been marked by an increased interest in the skin microbiota and its role in cutaneous health and disease, in part due to advances in next-generation sequencing platforms that enable high-throughput, culture-independent detection of bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Various approaches, including bacterial 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing and metagenomic shotgun sequencing, have been applied to profile microbial communities colonizing healthy skin and diseased skin including atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, and acne, among others. Here, we provide an overview of culture-dependent and -independent approaches to profiling the skin microbiota and the types of questions that may be answered by each approach. We additionally highlight important study design considerations, selection of controls, interpretation of results, and limitations and challenges.
