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

objectiveTo evaluate how antimicrobial consumption was influenced by increasing the frequency of meetings in which the Antimicrobial Stewardship Program (ASP) team conducted prospective audit and feedback (PAF). MATERIALS AND

methodsRetrospective cohort study comparing consumption in DDD per 1000 beds-day and DDD per 1000 admissions across groups of anti-infectives, antibacterial groups, agents against methicillin-susceptible

resultsComparing 2023 to 2022: antibacterials for systemic use consumption increased in DDD per 1000 beds-day (+0.13%) and decreased in DDD per 1000 admissions (-3.55 %); consumption in DDD per 1000 beds-day and DDD per 1000 admissions increased for penicillins, glycopeptides and aminoglycosides while it decreased for cephalosporins and carbapenems, quinolones use increased per beds-days but decreased per admissions; regarding anti-MSSA and anti-MRSA agents, consumption of cefazolin, cloxacillin, vancomycin and daptomycin increased in DDD per 1000 beds-day and DDD per 1000 admissions, linezolid consumption increased per beds-day but decreased per admissions; for antibiotics targeting sensitive Gram-negative bacteria and antibiotics targeting resistant Gram-negative bacteria, consumption of amoxicillin-clavulanate, piperacillin-tazobactam, aminoglycosides, ceftazidime, cefepime and polymyxins increased per DDD/1000 bed-days and DDD per 1000 admissions, carbapenems consumption decreased per bed-days and admissions.

conclusionsThe increase in the frequency of meetings seems to be related to better use of antimicrobials in our center.
