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
Objective: Expanded public health (PH) antimicrobial stewardship (AS) funding to Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAI)/Antimicrobial Resistance (AR) programs led to hiring of pharmacists with AS expertise in health departments. A PH pharmacists' community of practice (CoP) consisting of pharmacists who work for local, state, and federal PH agencies was initiated to share resources and activities from PH AS interventions and collaborations. The objective of this evaluation was to characterize publications identified by PH pharmacists' CoP that helped advance AS implementation by PH agencies. Methods: In March 2024, a 34-item electronic questionnaire was developed and distributed to the PH pharmacists' CoP requesting nominations of articles that highlight interventions and data sources essential to PH AS practice. Respondents were asked to submit 1-10 scientific articles published from 2014 to 2023 most relevant to their work in PH AS implementation and/or in achieving programmatic deliverables. Articles with ≥ 3 nominations were selected for review. Results: Of 39 PH pharmacists in the CoP, 24 (62%) responded with 106 article nominations. Respondents held state-level positions (83%), had <2 years of PH AS experience (54%), and were often from the southeastern United States (25%). Publications in acute care settings were most frequent (54, 51%), followed by outpatient (47, 44%), and long-term care (45, 42%). A total of eleven articles were selected for review. Conclusions: Scientific publications impactful to AS PH practice can serve as a valuable resource for AS programs and pharmacists in PH. Dissemination of PH AS activities can inform enhancement of AS programs in the PH sector.
