Search Strategy and selection criteria
We searched PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Medline for papers published
between January 2012 and December 2022, using the following terms:
“skin microbiome”, “bacteria”, “Staphylococcus aureus ”,
“fungi”, “mites”, “atopic dermatitis”, “eczema”, and “food
allergy” in combinations. Articles were also identified through
searches of reference lists of selected key papers in the field. The
search was not limited by language. The final reference list was
selected on the basis of originality, up-to-dateness, impact in the
field, and relevance to the broad scope of this review.
