The contribution of antimicrobials and antimicrobial resistance to climate change and a possible way to reverse it whilst still offering high quality healthcare-a conceptual analysis.
Review in Frontiers in public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Since 1954, studies have consistently demonstrated that antimicrobials disrupt microbial environments, causing ecosystem degradation and release of greenhouse gases (GHG), making antimicrobials noteworthy climate stressors. Microbes created an atmosphere on Earth that supports eukaryotic life-forms and are essential for our normal physiological functions. However, despite their critical importance, microbes are mostly associated with infectious diseases, and antimicrobials are extensively used to eradicate them. In healthcare and veterinary medicine, antimicrobials are essential in fighting infections. The general risk associated with their use has focused on antimicrobial resistance and loss of efficacy, whereas their impact on microbial environments and GHGs has been overlooked. Using recent data, a single course of antibiotics is estimated to cause the release of 9.84 tonnes of CO
