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: Care bundles are a recognised strategy to improve treatment. When managed through an Antimicrobial Stewardship Program (ASP) based on the pharmacist-led program model, care bundles can be an effective tool to guide decision making in clinical practice and to improve patient outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate the results of a pharmacist-led ASP which included a care bundle based on clinical outcomes of Methods: A retrospective cohort study with multivariate analysis was conducted in a paediatric hospital in Brazil. The study comprised 120 paediatric patients with a positive blood culture for Results: The multivariate analysis demonstrated that the following variables had an impact on primary outcome: infant patients [Odds ratio (OR) 12.998, Conclusions: The pharmacist-led ASP model showed an increase in adherence to the care bundle between the two study periods, with reduced probability of a negative outcome. Furthermore, risk factors for
