[The skin microbiome-useful for diagnosis and therapy?]
Review in Der Hautarzt; Zeitschrift fur Dermatologie, Venerologie, und verwandte Gebiete, 2021. 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
backgroundOur skin is a very important and complex organ of the body. The microorganisms of the skin, the so-called microbiome, represent an important part of the healthy skin barrier and are influenced by various external and internal factors.
aimThe question to what extent the skin microbiome represents a diagnostic or even therapeutic target in the context of skin diseases is discussed. MATERIALS AND
methodsA literature search was performed.
resultsSeveral diseases are associated with negative alterations of the skin microbiome. In atopic dermatitis, a correlation between severity and increased availability of Staphylococcus aureus is known, with a loss of bacterial diversity on the skin. In the future, S. aureus will not only be used as a diagnostic marker in atopic dermatitis, but also represents a promising target as a predictive marker for therapeutic success. The role of the skin microbiome in psoriasis has not yet been researched in depth. However, there is evidence that dysbiosis of the skin microbiome contributes to the course of psoriasis and that there is a disturbance in immune tolerance in patients. In the case of acne, the involvement of Cutibacterium acnes in the clinical picture is well known; however, recent findings show that it is not sufficient to identify the species, but certain characteristics of C. acnes strains are associated.
conclusionMicrobial biomarkers are currently only established in atopic dermatitis. For other diseases, this might be the case in the future; however combinations of microorganisms, single species and also strains with specific characteristics must be considered.
