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

Background: The World Health Organization (WHO) has recommended strategies and actions to enhance awareness and understanding of AMR. Gaps in AMR awareness remain in Jordan, particularly among the youth. Aim: To describe our programmatic approach to AMR education across Jordanian governorates among school-aged children. Methods: Our approach depicts the development of comprehensive health messages, pilot and expansion phases in schools, and pre- and post-session knowledge assessments. Results: 2,700 students across 30 schools reached with AMR health messages. Gained knowledge was assessed in 932 students, revealing significant improvements in understanding the importance of consulting a doctor before taking antibiotics, the relationship between nutrition and immunity, the dangers of sharing medicines, and proper handwashing techniques. The average expenditure was approximately $8.55 per student. Conclusion: The intervention underscores the critical role of targeted educational initiatives in improving AMR awareness among youth, emphasizing the need for sustained and scalable approaches to combat AMR effectively.
