Society and the Microbiome: A Biopsychosocial Window Into Comprehensive Well-Being: A Review.
Article in Health science reports, 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
Background and Objectives: In addition to biological factors, human social behavior, societal structures, and environmental contexts significantly influence the human microbiome. This review examines how socially relevant factors relate to the microbiome to clarify underlying mechanisms and health impacts, aiming to inform effective preventive and therapeutic strategies. Methods: We synthesized relevant literature from PubMed using a biopsychosocial framework, integrating structural socio-political and contextual factors to elucidate interactions between social behavior and the microbiota. Results and Conclusions: Social behavior shapes the microbiome through complex biological, psychological, and socio‑cultural pathways, with health consequences involving immune, mental, and metabolic functions. Future research should clarify the fundamental drivers of this relationship, identify individual differences, and employ longitudinal designs to measure sustained effects.
