Analysis of global trends and hotspots of skin microbiome in acne: a bibliometric perspective.
Article in BioData mining, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundAcne is a chronic inflammatory condition affecting the hair follicles and sebaceous glands. Recent research has revealed significant advances in the study of the acne skin microbiome. Systematic analysis of research trends and hotspots in the acne skin microbiome is lacking. This study utilized bibliometric methods to conduct in-depth research on the recognition structure of the acne skin microbiome, identifying hot trends and emerging topics.
methodsWe performed a topic search to retrieve articles about skin microbiome in acne from the Web of Science Core Collection. Bibliometric research was conducted using CiteSpace, VOSviewer, and R language.
resultsThis study analyzed 757 articles from 1362 institutions in 68 countries, the United States leading the research efforts. Notably, Brigitte Dréno from the University of Nantes emerged as the most prolific author in this field, with 19 papers and 334 co-citations. The research output on the skin microbiome of acne continues to increase, with Experimental Dermatology being the journal with the highest number of published articles. The primary focus is investigating the skin microbiome's mechanisms in acne development and exploring treatment strategies. These findings have important implications for developing microbiome-targeted therapies, which could provide new, personalized treatment options for patients with acne. Emerging research hotspots include skincare, gut microbiome, and treatment.
conclusionThe study's findings indicate a thriving research interest in the skin microbiome and its relationship to acne, focusing on acne treatment through the regulation of the skin microbiome balance. Currently, the development of skincare products targeting the regulation of the skin microbiome represents a research hotspot, reflecting the transition from basic scientific research to clinical practice.
