The human skin microbiome in health.
Review in Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Human skin is home to a myriad of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and mites, many of which are considered commensal microbes that aid in maintaining the overall homeostasis or steady-state condition of the skin and contribute to skin health. Our understanding of the complexities of the skin's interaction with its microorganisms is evolving. This knowledge is based primarily on in vitro and animal studies, and more work is needed to understand how this knowledge relates to humans. Here, we introduce the concept of the skin microbiome and discuss skin microbial ecology, some intrinsic factors with potential influence on the human skin microbiome, and possible microbiome-host interactions. The second article of this two-part CME series describes how microbiome alterations may be associated with skin disease, how medications can affect the microbiome, and what microbiome-based therapies are under investigation.
