1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The skin is the primary barrier against environmental insults, safeguarding the body from mechanical, chemical and pathogenic threats. The frequent exposure of the skin to environmental challenges requires an immune response that incorporates a sophisticated combination of defenses. Tissue-resident lymphocytes are pivotal for skin immunity, working in tandem with commensal bacteria to maintain immune surveillance and homeostasis, as well as participating in the pathogenesis of several skin diseases. Indeed, it has been estimated that the human skin harbors nearly twice as many T cells as found in the circulation. Effective treatment of skin diseases and new therapy development require a thorough understanding of the complex interactions among skin tissue, immune cells and the microbiota, which together regulate the skin's immune balance. This Review explores the latest developments and understanding of this critical barrier organ, with a specific focus on the role of skin-resident T cells.
