Trend of Antibiotic Use in Children with Acute Otitis Media in Korea.
Article in Journal of Korean medical science, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Public interventions have shown to optimize the use of antibiotics in children with acute otitis media (AOM). In this study, we describe the AOM-related antibiotic use among children in South Korea using national cohort data. We retrieved the Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service data to construct a national cohort of children aged 0-6 years who had been diagnosed with AOM between 2012 and 2018. Of 25,212,264 children included, the antibiotic prescription has increased for amoxicillin/amoxicillin-clavulanate from 56.1% in 2012 to 61.8% in 2018. Prescription has decreased for cephalosporin (35.1% in 2012 to 31.8% in 2018) and macrolide (8.7% in 2012 to 6.4% in 2018). National cohort data have shown an increased trend in AOM-related aminopenicillin prescription and downward trend cephalosporin and macrolide use in South Korea. A multi-faceted approach is required to control the antimicrobial resistance at a population level.
