1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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 (AMR) is a major threat in the Eastern Mediterranean region (EMR) due to factors such as the high prevalence of infectious diseases, weak health systems, and the misuse of antimicrobials. This paper aims to discuss how interdisciplinary action and collaboration, specifically through antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) and the One Health approach, can effectively address AMR in the EMR. The review focuses on successful AMS initiatives and the adoption of the One Health approach in countries within the EMR, including the Gulf Cooperation Countries (GCC), Egypt, Iran, Jordan, and Pakistan. The goal is to highlight the potential for progress in combating AMR and identify challenges and opportunities for strengthening interdisciplinary collaboration. The results showcase successful AMS programs and One Health initiatives in various EMR countries, demonstrating their potential to address AMR challenges. The paper also discusses the challenges faced by these nations, such as limited resources, fragmented health systems, and knowledge gaps. Additionally, opportunities for enhancing interdisciplinary action through regional cooperation, international partnerships, and research and innovation are outlined. In conclusion, this paper emphasizes the importance of a comprehensive and collaborative response to combat AMR in the EMR. It advocates for the One Health approach as a crucial framework to guide these efforts, promoting coordinated action, improved surveillance, responsible antimicrobial use, and enhanced interdisciplinary collaboration to effectively mitigate the threat of AMR.
