Bacterial Community Variation in Human Body Habitats Across Space and Time
Open accessAbstract
Growing on You: The human gut and skin harbor diverse microbial communities that are known to vary strikingly among individuals. Here, Costello et al. (p. 1694 , published online 5 November) analyzed microbial diversity among several distinct body habitats (including the gut, mouth, inside the ears and nose, and skin) of the same person at different times. They found that body habitat had more influence on microbial community composition than temporal differences and variation among people. Some skin locations, such as the index finger, back of the knee, and sole of the foot, on occasion harbored higher microbial diversity than the gut or oral cavity.

The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“Within individuals, small day-to-day variations in microbiota composition are generally observed (Costello et al., 2009), but these fluctuations become most obvious when we take a wider view across the lifespan (see Fig. 3).”

In the citing paper
“Overall, no differences were identified in beta diversity since, as expected (19), longitudinal fecal samples were more similar within patients as compared to between patients, despite some drift with time in the Chaput study (Fig. S5A and S5C).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
