Impact of Antimicrobial Stewardship on Reducing Antimicrobial Resistance.
Review in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 46 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Antimicrobial resistance has become a serious global issue, posing a significant threat to public health and healthcare professionals. Since the advent of penicillin, many antibiotics have lost their effectiveness in combating microbes simply due to inappropriate, irrational, unnecessary, and unrestricted use. The ineffectiveness of an increasing number of antibiotics necessitates the utilization of more potent antimicrobial agents for combatting uncomplicated infections. In response to the escalating prevalence of multidrug-resistant pathogens and the imperative to curtail the demand for novel antibiotics, the Antimicrobial Stewardship Program was conceived and implemented. This initiative is characterized by a lead physician, ideally possessing expertise in infectious diseases, alongside a pharmacist serving as a secondary leader and a microbiologist with defined responsibilities to achieve several objectives. These objectives include reducing indiscriminate usage of antimicrobial agents, promoting selective antimicrobial utilization based on culture results, de-escalating therapy from broad-spectrum to targeted antimicrobial agents, and transitioning from parenteral to oral administration when feasible. These objectives are pursued through a combination of pre-prescription and post-prescription strategies. While the Antimicrobial Stewardship Program is widely established in developed nations, a pressing need exists for its more comprehensive implementation in less developed regions. This review aims to examine the strategies used in antimicrobial stewardship programs to evaluate their effectiveness in preventing the development of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) based on existing research studies. Under the Antimicrobial Stewardship Program, education of healthcare professionals and continuous disposal of information about antimicrobial resistance have helped to restrict the emergence of multidrug-resistant organisms.
