Microbiome and Postbiotics in Skin Health.
Review in Biomedicines, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 44 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
The skin microbiome, a diverse and dynamic ecosystem of microorganisms, plays a pivotal role in maintaining skin health by interacting with skin cells, immune components, and structural barriers. It is essential for skin homeostasis, immune defense, and protection against pathogenic colonization. Dysbiosis in the microbiome has been implicated in numerous dermatological conditions, including acne, eczema, psoriasis, and rosacea. Acne, the most prevalent skin condition, affects up to 85% of individuals at some point in their lives, while eczema and psoriasis impose significant public health and economic burdens. The composition of the skin microbiome varies across skin types and anatomical sites, with sebaceous, moist, and dry areas fostering distinct microbial communities. Emerging therapeutic strategies such as microbiome-targeted treatments offer novel avenues for addressing skin diseases. Among these approaches, postbiotics have gained significant attention for their safety and efficacy. Unlike probiotics, postbiotics are non-viable microbial cells or their metabolites, which reduce safety concerns while providing functional benefits such as UV protection and wound healing. This review consolidates current insights into the role of the skin microbiome in health and disease, emphasizing postbiotics as a promising therapeutic strategy by exploring the clinical and commercial potential of microbiome-based treatments, particularly postbiotics, and their ability to redefine dermatological care and improve patient outcomes.
