[Adequacy of the consumption of antipseudomonal antibiotics after changes in the 2019 EUCAST criteria].
Observational study in Revista espanola de quimioterapia : publicacion oficial de la Sociedad Espanola de Quimioterapia, 2023. 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
objectiveIn 2019, the European Committee for the Study of Antibiotic Susceptibility modified the categories of antibiotic susceptibility tests to include the term "susceptible with increased exposure". Following the dissemination of local protocols reflecting these modifications, the aim of our study was to analyse whether prescribers have adapted to them and the clinical impact in cases of inadequacy.
methodsObservational and retrospective study of patients with infection who received antipseudomonal antibiotics from January to October 2021 in a tertiary hospital.
resultsNon-adherence to the guideline recommendations was 57.6% in the ward and 40.4% in the ICU (p<0.05). In both the ward and ICU, the group with the most prescriptions not by the guideline recommendations were aminoglycosides (92.9% and 64.9% respectively) for using suboptimal doses, followed by carbapenems (89.1% and 53.7% respectively) for not administering an extended infusion. On the ward, the mortality rate during admission or at 30 days in the inadequate therapy group was 23.3% vs 11.5% in those who received adequate treatment (OR: 2.34; 95% CI 1.14-4.82); in ICU there were no statistically significant differences.
conclusionsThe results show the need to implement measures to ensure better dissemination and knowledge of key concepts in antibiotic management, to ensure increased exposures, and to be able to provide better infection coverage, as well as to avoid amplifying resistant strains.
