Antimicrobial stewardship markers and healthcare-associated pneumonia threshold criteria in UK hospitals: analysis of the MicroGuide
Article in JAC-antimicrobial resistance, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: To address antimicrobial resistance, antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) principles must be implemented and adhered to. Clinical decision aids such as the MicroGuide Methods: Guidelines in the MicroGuide app were extracted and analysed for content related to AMS and HAP. Guidelines were characterized according to HAP naming classification; community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) classifications were analysed to serve as a comparator group. Results: In total, 115 trusts (119 hospitals) were included. Nearly all hospitals had developed MicroGuide sections on AMS ( Conclusions: The high heterogeneity in HAP classification identified suggests inconsistency of practice in identifying thresholds for HAP in the UK. This complicates HAP management and AMS practices. To address HAP in alignment with AMS principles, a comprehensive strategy that prioritizes uniform clinical definitions and thresholds should be developed.
