The impact of the six pillars of lifestyle medicine on the biology of skin aging.
Review in Frontiers in aging, 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
Skin aging arises from the interaction between intrinsic genetic programs and cumulative environmental and behavioral exposures collectively defined as the exposome. Increasing evidence indicates that core molecular pathways driving skin aging, including mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, cellular senescence, and extracellular matrix remodeling are responsive to modifiable lifestyle factors. This narrative review examines the mechanistic and translational evidence linking the six pillars of Lifestyle Medicine; nutrition, physical activity, stress regulation, sleep, avoidance of toxic exposures, and social connection, to fundamental biological processes involved in skin aging. Across experimental models and human studies, these lifestyle domains converge on established hallmarks of aging, modulating redox balance, inflammatory signaling, mitochondrial biogenesis, epigenetic regulation, DNA repair, and dermal matrix integrity. Nutritional patterns influence glycation and oxidative stress; physical activity enhances mitochondrial and vascular function; chronic stress and sleep disruption amplify neuroendocrine and inflammatory pathways; toxic exposures activate matrix-degrading and senescence-associated cascades; and social isolation is associated with heightened systemic inflammatory tone. Collectively, these findings support the concept that skin aging represents a biologically plastic process shaped in part by lifestyle-dependent modulation of conserved aging mechanisms. Integrating lifestyle-responsive pathways into skin aging research may enable more targeted, preventive, and mechanism-based strategies in dermatological practice.
