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
Objective: To describe the development of a combined local antibiogram and assess its utility in an educational intervention. Design: Retrospective analysis of a combined, multi-healthcare system antibiogram with an educational intervention and pre-post analysis. Setting: Creation of the combined antibiogram included all health systems in Des Moines, Iowa. The educational intervention was delivered live via webinar and remained available on demand for one year. Participants: The combined antibiogram participants included four health systems representing eight hospitals. The educational intervention included 45 healthcare providers (15 live, 30 on demand) who elected to participate. Methods: Yearly antibiograms were collected from four health systems for 2017 and 2018 and from three health systems for 2019 and 2020. Each was aggregated into a single antibiogram, posted online, and analyzed retrospectively. In 2021, an educational intervention took place, which included pre-educational assessments, a one-hour presentation on local resistance rates and impact on common infections, and post-education assessments. The educational session was available online for one year. Correct responses before and after education were compared using NcNemar's test. Results: Over 4 yr, 123,168 isolates were included in the antibiogram, representing 57 species and 46 tested antibiotics. Before education, prediction of local resistance rates for Conclusions: A combined local antibiogram was useful in supporting an outpatient education program.
