Age-adjusted machine learning identifies facial skin microbes associated with skin quality among Korean women.
Article in mSystems, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Recognizing specific microbes that significantly influence skin quality is becoming an essential aspect of personalized skincare. However, conventional large-scale cohort skin microbiome studies often overlook important confounders, such as age, leading to missing meaningful microbe-skin relationships. In this study, we developed an age-adjusted machine learning (AAML) framework to identify microbial candidates associated with skin quality by determining optimal age ranges that enhance age-independent signals of skin microbes. It allowed the identification of distinct age groups that clearly explain specific skin microbial effects, as well as potential microbes showing notable age-independent links to skin quality, which were not observed in analyses across the entire age spectrum. In particular,
